Roofers, plumbers, and siders, take the bite out of replacing shingles with Roof Snake. This handy tool allows you to nail replacement 3-tab style shingles into place without damaging the shingles on the row above, and it provides you with a useful tool for removing nails from roof shingles. Simply drive the claw end under the nail, and roll the nail out by twisting the Roof Snake.
Product Description
Now, nail replacement 3-tab style shingles in place without damaging those on the row above. Nailing replacement shingles in place requires lifting the shingle on the row above up high enough to strike the nail with a hammer. This lifting frequently results in breaking the good shingle. Roof Snake allows you to slip the nail into position without lifting the shingle on the row above much more than the height of the nail. The Roof Snake saves you time and money.

 Gets the Awkward Job Done September 13, 2009

This is a useful tool for awkward shingled roof repairs. There are other ways of accomplishing the same thing, but a special purpose tool like this is efficient.

Not much better than a flat bar,the few times I used this it bent the nails or drove them crooked.I still just bend the shingles up enough to hit the nail,as long as the shingles aren't to cold.
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!
