It’s important to fix or replace torn asphalt shingles before the problems get severe enough to permit leaks or the pieces break apart and blow off the roof.
1) Carefully lift the torn piece or damaged corner, and, using a putty knife, spread a layer of roofing cement under it.
2) Tack down a curled corner with one roofing nail or the two torn halves with two roofing nails on each side of the tear.
3) Spread roofing cement over the crack and on top of the nail heads to seal up any potential leaks.
