There are also a number of ways to put shingles on. In this video, you’ll be taught some tips to installing shingles.

The initial step is to set up the drip edge. An error that is often made is nailing the drip edge even with the roof. You want it to overhang by approximately 1/2 inch. The siding will be dry by allowing the water to flow off the drip edges. This helps the siding to last longer and not suffer the damage caused by water.
