📏 4/09 Shingle Gauge by Haag Review

Needless to say this is the standard. I'm a claims handler and I couldn't do my job without one of these clapboard gauges.

Did you know there is a tutorial video for this? And in case you didn't know - you should get a double pack, they are for different purposes.

My son works as an insurance adjuster and uses this tool every day. He left his on someone's roof so it had to be replaced. This one came with a clip, so maybe he's not leaving it anywhere now.
