This is the hardest thing I have ever done...(EP.7)

What happens here

Utilize a shingle removing claw or rake to begin stripping the existing shingles. The ideal technique is to start from the top edge of the roof and work downwards. Insert the tool's claw underneath the shingles and pry upwards, leveraging the tool's handle to lift and detach the shingles and their fasteners. This top-down approach generally allows for easier removal, as the tool can get under successive layers without being obstructed by already removed shingles.

Goal: Start the process of removing the old asphalt shingles using a specialized shingle removing tool, working methodically from the top of the roof downwards to effectively pry off layers.
