Roof Repair January 29, 2008

I remembered seeing this tool in a catalog and thought, what a great tool for roof repair. Couldn't find this item in a catalog when I needed it, thank you Amazon for carrying it. I repaired our family cabin's roof with this tool after two different storms and lent it to the technicans who installed the new woodstove and stove pipe. Up here in the wet Northwest, the shingles get cold and are easily torn and cracked when peeling them back to remove nails and to re-nail. The roof snake reaches easily under the shingles to remove nails with the claw end then holds the new nail and drives it home. Fast, easy and no torn shingles from the repair itself! Excellent tool!

This falls under the category of "why didn't I think of that?" It's not one of those tools that you need every day, but it sure is handy when you need it. I've used it twice so far and it being wintertime it sure has been great. No broken shingles, no bent-over nails. My hats off to the inventor!

Recently I replaced all the facia boards and gutters on my house. The last step in this process was the replacement of the drip-edge, which is an easy enough concept, but in practical terms can be quite difficult due to the interference of the shingles. I found that the job would be much easier if I had three hands-one to push the shingle back, one to hold the nail, and one to swing the hammer. After a frustrating time of punctured shingles, scraped and banged hands, and bent nails I called it a night. I thought about renting a power nailer, but fortunately I first entered "roof tool" into Amazon's search engine and found the roof snake-which handily solved the "third hand" dilemma. So now I have a tool that should work handily for lots of replacement jobs, ie shingles and siding, for about the cost of renting a power nailer for a day. The only problem I find with the tool is that the slot the nail enters and exits is a fair bit wider than a roofing nail head, allowing for some slop as you move the tool around under the shingle, but overall the tool is well worth the price and saves me a lot of frustration.
