Deteriorated or damaged roofing. This condition is difficult to repair. Never build up or cover the old or damaged roofing with a series of felt layers. This may change the drainage pattern of the roof and create more problems. Remove damaged roofing. Clean the surfaces in and around the cut-out area. Now cut pieces of felt to neatly fit the cut-out area. The number of felt strips placed should equal the number of layers of felt removed.
