My garage (in Toronto) is separate from the house. I had the house
roof done about 9 years ago with an architectural shingle and there
were 7 packages of it left over. The roofer left them with me so
they have been sitting in a corner of the garage ever since.

I am wondering if it's ok to use those shingles now that I have to
replace the garage roof. Will the glue be ok?

Of course I'll have to buy more of them since they won't cover the
whole area.


I would keep the exra existing shingles for repair and buy all new for
the garage.

in case your home roof needs repairs you will still have matching
shingles.


the ones on the house will have faded so the NOS won't match anyway.

and the entire detached garage will look great..

provided you have the extra bucks for all new shingles its the best
way to go
