New Roof Product


My father has developed a roof restoration product and is interested in some feed back on it, the good, bad and ugly. Production has not started yet but is eager to start. I dont have a final cost yet but I think $500 should cover 25sq.www.shinglelife.com
sorry got w happy

Re: New Roof Product


subtract a w from the link and it will work.

As far as the websited goes, I still don't know what your product IS. I know what it does. All I can gather is that it is some kind of topical application to extend shingle life.

Too many words jumbled together. You didn't grab my attention at all.

Re: New Roof Product


Some questions/points come to mind
How long has this been tested?
On an old roof- all the moisturizing in the world won't get rid of cracks blisters and bald areas. If applied as "preventative" to a newer roof won't it void the shingle warranty?
The slipperiness could be a safety concern.

I guess that's my first impression.

untrue. tried this, and it only yielded results of about 6 months protection.

what i found that works the best is to tearoff the old shingles. buy new ones. and then nail them to wood.
