I needed to repair my mom's roof shingles Please help me How do I go about it?
To mend the shingles you require some roof repair materials. They are - roofing cement, aluminum flashing and a flat pry bar. The width of the flashing should be 1 inch lesser than that of the damaged strip of the shingle, and the length should be 4 inches more than it. Take the required measurement of the shingle and cut the flashing accordingly. Then you have to loosen up the damaged strip and the adjacent strips on its both sides with the help of pry bar. Now apply some roofing cement below the shingle where the flashing has to be placed. Insert the flashing under the shingle and put some more cement above it. Finally, put some pressure on the shingle so that it gets attached to the flashing properly. Or better yet, contact a roofing contractor.

How many shingles to cover the roof crown?
Shingles vary in dimensions, and sometimes there are specific bundles of shingles made for the sole purpose of ridge coverage. If you are using the house shingles for ridge, take the length of ridge to be covered, divided by the exposure of the shingle to determine the number of ridge pieces needed. Normally you will get three pieces out of one full shingle. Once you determine the number of full shingles, find out how many shingles are in a bundle and purchase the smallest bundle of shingles necessary to complete the job.
How do you install a sloped roof over an extisting flat roof?
You cut rafters, brace them as needed depending on the span and shingle it. I put one on a friend of mines. I cut the outside ends of the rafters at an angle so that I didn't need to change the fascia. Lay a 2x6 flat on the existing roof to run the braces down to. Your roof may not be flat but have a slope one way on it so you will have to take that into consideration for the peaked roof.
