Hi,

I am in the process of installing new outdoor wall lights on my house which has red cedar shingles with an 8 inch reveal. The builder installed the electical boxes right in the middle of a shingle course with no block. So the lights I am installing are tilted upward. What can I do to level them out? I was thinking about picking up some shingles and flipping them, cutting a hole for the box and nailing them....in effect making a cedar block out of them. Any ideas? Is there a better way?
