A roofer's grid apparatus is provided for use in retaining shingles on a roof. The apparatus includes several mounting strips of support material which are secured together by horizontal connecting strips so that the mounting strips are parallel to and spaced from one another. A plurality of shingle retaining arrays are provided on the mounting strips for retaining shingles on the apparatus with the shingles arranged in horizontal courses and with each course overlapping the course beneath. Each array includes a pair of raised ears connected to the mounting strips and being spaced horizontally from one another by a distance adapted to be substantially equal to the length of a shingle, and a plurality of spurs protruding from the strips and adapted to penetrate the shingle when the shingle is positioned between the ears and pressed against the roof.
