The reason you cannot have conventional shingles on the low-pitched roof is that the water does not drain off fast enough, which would allow water to permeate within the shingles. As you already know you will have to tear off the shingles and go with a membrane roof or a metal roof.

Mike the minimum pitch for shingles is a 3/12. Your house looks like a 4/12 pitch. Maybe 5/12. I think you may have to go with a rubberized roof for a nearly flat pitch. Like everyone else here says, you need to tear off the shingles, and replace the damaged plywood. Good luck

Hi Mike. I'm a roofing contractor here in SoCal, here is my 5c of wisdom. You do not have enough pitch for shingles. It will never work. Coating- waste of time and money. (sorry) Tear off everything. The wet plywood will have to be replaced. I would go to a local roofing supply house, they should be able to hook you up with some good guys, and have it hot mopped. It's a 1 day job, $ 750 to 850. Or torch down roofing - that would be my choice, that's what I do.

Deck screws for decking to joists is what I meant if you didn't use those. Roofing nails for shingles, but would have went with metal roofing on deck.

Not enough pitch, roofing felt needed from beginning, deck screws with Texas heat and deck and/or roof should not be attached to any manufactured home (should be freestanding).
PM me if you want some further info.
Take care,
Brett
