Wild weather can do a number on  your roof. If wind sends one of your roof tiles flying, replacing it isn't as difficult as you might think. Eric Stromer shows you his trade secret for how to fix a missing roof tile safely.

Step 1: Solid Ground
Wild weather can do a number on your roof. But replacing a tile isn't as difficult as you might think. First, make sure your ladder is on secure ground.

Step 2: Take Sides
Slide a flat bar under the top tile to the right of the tile you want to replace. Slide another flat bar to the left of the tile.

Step 3: New and Improved
Then just lift out the broken tile and replace it with a new one.
