ABSTRACT:
A shingle removing tool having, in a first embodiment, a generally flat blade with a handle attached to one end of the blade at a shallow angle. The blade has a set of slots in its front edge and at least two slots in its back edge for use in removing shingle nails from the shingles or roof. In a second embodiment, the tool has a generally flat blade with two, spaced-apart, elongate fingers projecting forwardly from the front edge of the blade. The fingers provide a tool with better leverage for lifting off shingles. A set of slots are provided in the front edge of the blade between the fingers and at least two slots are in the back edge for use in removing shingle nails. In a third embodiment, a shingle cutting tool is provided having top and bottom blades joined together with a central, vertical flange. A cutting edge on the front of the flange cuts shingles between the blades as the tool is pushed forward.
