Hi. I had my roof replaced a few days ago. The job
took one day, and it was a very hot day. The crew
threw shingles all over the lawn as they worked,
and wherever the shingles laid, that spot is now a
yellow patch of grass.

I have little lawn care experience, and am wondering
if this is a temporary condition -- just grass blade
damage that'll grow back. Or if the grass is just dead
and I'm looking at future bald spots.

Anyone have had similar experience?

Don't worry, the grass will recover in a few days.

It will recover. I once has a guy replacing a window (sidelight) and
left the old one lying on the grass for about an hour. I had a burn
spot the shape of a door sidelight for a couple of weeks.

If it's hot and sunny, water the grass early in the morning (like 5
AM). Baby it for a few days.

I hope this helps,
Cynthia
