| Dec 2, 2016 at 17:57 | comment | added | Cody Pace | Ok thank you. And do i just seal the edges with tar and nail it down? | |
| Dec 2, 2016 at 17:46 | comment | added | Ed Beal | Michael Karas, this could be an answer as it would be a way better way to seal the leak for a few months with less work. | |
| Dec 2, 2016 at 17:25 | comment | added | Cody Pace | Will this work even if the decking underneath is rotted? | |
| Dec 2, 2016 at 16:50 | comment | added | Michael Karas♦ | I would think that some rolled roofing installed in horizontal overlapping strips starting from the lower edge of the leak area would be a much better temporary solution that mucking around with the plywood idea. Rolled roofing will be much better to seal to the existing shingles at the ends of the strips and along the top edge of the upper most run. It may very well be lower cost that the plywood and is certainly more adaptable to size of area to be covered in a temporary way. | |
