In order to attach a ledger and apply flashing for an addition to the side of my house, I had to cut out several rows of cedar shingle siding. I am now refinishing the roof and reattaching the cedar shingles along the roofline over the flashing. Because I cut out rows of shingles, there is no way I can reattach with the proper overlap from the bottom up, without removing all the shingles above. I can cut the shingles to the right length and nail them in to the missing row, but then the nail heads will be showing. Is there any other way to reattach cedar shingles? Can I for example use construction adhesive? Thanks,
