    Roof issues
    SOMEBODY KNOWS THE ANSWER

    I have asked several roofing suppliers but not had an answer that fits, no, I do not, nor cannot replace my whole roof -it is too big.

    I have a decra tile-composite aluminium and other material shingle roof. The tiles are not single tiles but are laid out in staggered lengths of a pre-formed rectangle.

    Anyway, after a hard hurricane season two-three years ago the roof has developed leaks, everywhere. What is the best way to repair the leaks? The roof is in a hot climate so rain is only an intermittant problem, but when it does rain there is wind..

    I thought of trying a roofing repair tape, if I can find it, and a elastimatic coating (red? Or paintable). The size of the roof would make caulking under the edge of the tiles prohibitive, tape seems to be a more cost effective solution. What are my options.

    How do I do it ( very handy with any tool) and where can I find the products?

    Any suggestions??

    A roof coating can be sprayed on but it is applied by a professional company.

    The roofing repair tape I've seen comes in black or silver. It usually can be located in the roofing dept. of a home center.
