Q&A
Why are nail pops so common on Knoxville roofs, and how do you repair them?
Knoxville's significant temperature swings cause the wood in your roof decking to expand and contract, which can push nails up over time. At Aguirre Roofing, we don't just hammer them back down. Our repair process involves carefully removing the popped nail, sealing the old hole with roofing cement, and securing the shingle with a new, longer nail in a fresh location. This prevents future leaks and is a key part of our comprehensive roof repair service for local homes.
How can I tell if my chimney flashing is leaking, and what does repair involve?
Signs of a leaking chimney flashing in Knoxville often include water stains on the interior ceiling or walls near the chimney, moisture in the attic, or visible rust or separation on the metal flashing itself. Our roof inspection service includes a detailed check of all flashings. For repair, we carefully remove the compromised section, install new flashing that integrates seamlessly with your existing roof, and seal it with high-grade, weatherproof materials to withstand our local heavy rains.
If I'm getting a roof replacement due to these issues, should I consider new gutters too?
Absolutely. In Knoxville, properly functioning gutters are crucial for directing water away from your home's foundation and new roof. During a roof replacement, we have optimal access to the fascia boards where gutters mount. Combining a new roof installation with a gutter replacement or new gutter installation ensures a seamless, integrated system. This improves drainage, protects your new investment, and can often be more efficient and cost-effective when done together.
