Summary:The disclosure is directed to a roofer's cutting guide for use in trimming tab asphalt shingles to a predetermined length. The guide consists of a plate of predetermine width and having a pair of parallel edges for guiding a shingle cutting tool. One of the edges is partially cut away to form a third parallel edge which also conforms in part to the shape of a slot lying between and defining the shingle tabs. The width of the plate is chosen so that upon alignment of the third edge with the shingle slot, the shingle can be trimmed lengthwise either at the slot or along a transverse line lying mid-way between two slots.
