Missing Shingles and Roof Nails Popping Up

As a roofing company we encounter all sorts of roof leaks that require a roof repair near Mansfield, Ohio. Whenever there is a wind storm, many homeowners contact us because their roofs have been damaged by the high winds causing shingle blow off or shingle nail pops. A shingle nail pop means that the nail has went through the shingle. In other words, the shingle is damaged and a prime area for roof leaks. 

Some homeowners may attempt to repair missing shingles and nail pops on their roof, it just depends on the pitch of their roof and whether or not they feel comfortable going up on a roof, especially in the winter. However, it seems that most homeowners don’t feel comfortable repairing their own roof and prefer to contact a qualified roofing contractor (like us) to repair their roof. Most roof repairs to your home will cost between $300 and $1,000, depending on how extensive the damage is. 

Roof Leak Repair

Flashing

In addition to roof leaks from the obvious shingle blow offs and shingle nail pops, leaks can also be caused by compromised flashing around the vulnerable parts of your roof. Roof flashing is thin metal sheeting used around any vulnerable area of your roof to prevent leaks. Over time the seals around your flashing can wear out because of the harsh weather they normally protect you from.

Oftentimes less-experienced or shoddy roofers put the roof flashing in, but they fail to seal it correctly. This can cause serious problems by way of leaks into your home. This sort of leak can be very troublesome for you, especially if you cannot spot it right away. A lot of interior damage can occur in a very short amount of time from intrusive water entering your home. You may have flashing around your chimney, skylights, valleys and slopes.
