Install the roofing felt.
Install a starter course of shingles upside down, so that the tabs point up. Cut the first one 6" with a utility knife and straightedge. Let the bottom overhang the drip edge 3/8", fasten the shingles with roofing nails. Use a full shingle for the remainder of the row. Trim the last shingle so it overlaps the edge by 3/8". |
