A neighbor suggested I take the bucket on the roof, flip it upside down
and silicone around the top of the bucket. The top would be on the
shingles. Will this work?


I'd wait for blue tarps and duct tape to go on sale at Harbor Freight.


Who needs shingles. Just cover the whole roof with a one inch layer of
silicone. Apply a blue tarp on top of the silicone making sure it sticks
well. Then cover the tarp with another 2 inches of clear silicone,
making sure the whole roof is covered. 24,642 tubes of clear silicone,
and several of the largest blue tarps available, and you'll have a
leakproof roof that should last a lifetime.
