how to do a roof repair using Henry wet patch

In this video I repair a leaky roof using Henry rubberized wet patch. This repair is relatively easy and can be done by anyone brave enough to venture onto their roof and get busy. Good luck my fiends!
Items Used:
Henry rubberized wet patch
Trowel
Rubber Gloves
Screw Driver
Repair mesh tape

Thanks for taking the mystery away. I had all kinds of ideas in my head to patch a leaky roof to roof joint but this seems very simple. Now I just need to pick out a disposable shirt and old pair of jeans.

[@MrSullyO]

Thanks for showing this. Woke up this morning to the first rain and a leaky roof. Off to Ace Hardware. Cheers.

Great video. Love how you speeded up the boring parts!

[@marielleveloz7608]

Thanks so much for the tutorial. This is going to save me a bit of money on repairs.

[@kkp4297]

buy white granules to spread on top. Helps the patch last longer, protect it from uv damage.

[@label1877]

We noticed the fabric was 100% polyester. Kinda expensive at $20 a small roll. We purchased 100% polyester curtains at Goodwill for a dollar and cut into 5 inch strips. 4 years later still no leaks.

[@barrytanenbaum4157]

Had a branch damage my shed roof. Was going to use Henry Patch, but without the mesh patch. But after seeing your video, I think I will use the patch material. Thank you very much for doing this video for us. :)

Imma try it! We have a small leak at work above the bar seating area. The buildings 117 years old. Some days I just wanna light a match and walk away...but imma try to fix the leaky roof first!😁😆😁

Man I need you at my house lol! Thanks for the tutorial! Guess I’m going on the roof 😱 my roof isn’t flat and I have no attic so hopefully this will work?

[@Anonymous-it5jw]

Ten months later, is the patch still holding?

[@jennevaa]

Thanks, I can do this.

[@clawandhammer4635]

Yes you can!

[@parkeypey777]

Thanks 😊

Will this patch work for areas with Standing Water?

[@josecanisales3491]

Be honest, did the roof repair work? Stopped the leak?

[@SrFulanoTal]

hello, great video... will this worth on eternit roofs? Some spots where they join, the screw was placed wrong so right in the overlapping water goes through..can we apply this Henry rubberized wet patch to cover those spots? Thanks!

[@clawandhammer4635]

SrFulanoTal eternit roofing is cement based and this will not work.

[@SrFulanoTal]

@@clawandhammer4635 thanks for the quick reply..what product would you recommend for our situation?

Can you use this stuff on rubber roof vent seals? Obviously the mesh wouldn't work so well though.

[@clawandhammer4635]

definitely

[@msmith7218]

How long will the tub stay usable if i don't use it all at once ? Thanks

[@WKaliberr]

how long does it take to solidify and dry? Mine has been on for 36 hours and its still soft

[@clawandhammer4635]

It will always have some flex to it.

[@snuk8258]

Can I use this or any type of tar roof cement to fill up a shallow depression to prevent water pooling?

[@clawandhammer4635]

for sure

[@marysheppard6270]

Can I just use nylon window screen to reinforce it?

[@Airbender24B]

I used Henry's rubberized roof patch extreme conditions edition and it seemed to work well for about a year or two then my flat roof began leaking again. Plenty of roof patch has built up and I'm wondering what the best way would be to remove the old and reapply new wet patch. Perhaps a multi tool?

[@TheKrempist]

I am in this same situation right now. Wishing I used less of the stuff on the initial repair a year ago.

[@emmiwee1000]

Can you use this with a vinyl roof?

[@shreenasharma5789]

Hi I really like your video please can u tell the name of that yellow paper type which u have used in the video with henry ... where is best place to buy it ? How much it need to apply in 10 meters lond house roof to fixed it???? I am really waiting for your reply. Thank you so much!❤️

[@clawandhammer4635]

The yellow mesh is a binder for the tar.

[@robertschoonover6517]

How long before I can paint with the white rubber paint

[@vannessatorres3439]

could i use this for flashing

[@templeton3504]

Theoretically it could be used as a flashing. Henry has a flashing CFAWP (cold fluid applied waterproofing). PMMA works well for flashing and detail work but you're not really going to find PMMA at your local hardware stores. Warranty wise I want to say it carries a 10 year. Henry products are nice in the sense this is the closest the average person can get to commercial grade but certainly not Soprema, Siplast or Carlisle to name a few. Although Carlisle does have residential use products too, just have to find it.

[@starfish2046]

Can you answer why this specific spot which has been patched but now you still need to repatch the same area?

[@clawandhammer4635]

Just showing an example. Thanks

[@andrewjackson5118]

Good Question!

[@elijahthompson8537]

I know you posted this a long time ago but how long do you think it takes to dry?

[@clawandhammer4635]

Elijah Thompson it’s waterproof immediately hence the name wet patch.

[@elijahthompson8537]

Claw And Hammer I put this on my my rv 😦 it looks to work fine

[@TheKrempist]

It took mine several months to fully cure. It says full cure can take over two months on the box

[@coffeedollsvp]

Is this paintable?

[@spivvo]

hope you clean that flipper before you use it to flip your hamburgers! :)

[@JohnDoe-hy2ky]

Can you put it on a tin roof?

[@isthatsonotsofast9604]

Could you tell me what type of repair mesh tape I can use. Is it the kind that can be used on dry wall too?

Henry makes the mesh tape as well

Yes it should. keep in mind it will take over two months to fully cure though.

Like a rv? I did in mine I clean up all the old 1st and it's my 1st time doing it it stop the water but I didn't have the mesh

[@oldgar9]

I don't now why everybody uses Henry's, when black jack is far superior, maybe because Home Depot only carries Henrys. Try applying Henrys to a wet surface with a dry putty knife, it will not stick to the wet surface, whereas Black Jack will displace the water and stick even in the rain-I've done it.

[@clawandhammer4635]

oldgar9 interesting. I’ll have to check it out.

[@RoofingFacts]

There both garbage products honestly. It's a cheap store-brand equivalent that's nothing more than a cheapened version of the products roofers should be using. Karnak, Flintastic, Lucas, I'll even give Tamko a little bit of credit. If you want a roofing product, you go to a roofing supplier. Henry's and Blackjack are fine for a 5 minute DIY project but they won't hold up to the extremes as well.

[@a191015]

I notice the Henry adhesive doesn't dry. After 12 hours the rains came it started to leak! I think I'll try black jack

[@RoofingFacts]

@@a191015 So actually it shouldn't dry after 12 hours. the faster it dries, the faster it cracks (not 100% accurate but a general guideline to plastic cement) if it still leaked 12 hours later, either it wasn't applied right, or something else leaked. I've literally applied brands like Karnak or Lucas while in a flash flood and temp stopped a leak for a few weeks while we waited on materials or dry weather to complete.

[@a191015]

Colorado Consultants For Roofing thanks for the info. I had a roll on roof on my overhang But I made a mistake by putting asphalt shingles on it. That night it rain pretty hard and next morning the roof leak. So I used Henry roofing adhesive around the seams and it still leaks. So I think I should replace the shingles and use the roll on. The pitch of my roof is low I think shingle was drench in the puddle of water

[@christinev5089]

Is there any reason why the roof would continue leaking if i have already applied a section of the wet patch?

[@clawandhammer4635]

Christine V the first coat someone put on without mesh. Cracked and leaked.

[@christinev5089]

Claw And Hammer so do i have to remove and start over? How do i do that?

[@clawandhammer4635]

Christine V re apply over the top

[@christinev5089]

Claw And Hammer i applied the henry solar flex white coating then applied the black henry wet patch w/ mesh. The water keeps leaking through but I don’t know why! I narrowed down the section where the leak is to a 3’ x 3’ section but I don’t know exactly where it is

[@clawandhammer4635]

@@christinev5089 You may have to tear off to the substrate and start fresh. If you build up too much it can cause a leak as well.

I have a spot leaking where the roof flashing and siding meet above my garage, my roof is extremely steep, does this adhere well to shingles and I assume I have to pop off some siding just enough to get under it
