In our area, flashing corrosion often appears as white, chalky oxidation or greenish patina on metal surfaces, especially around chimneys, vents, and valleys. You might also notice rust stains on your siding or granules in your gutters. Since flashing seals critical roof joints, even minor corrosion can lead to leaks. Our team performs thorough inspections to identify and replace corroded flashing with durable, weather-resistant materials suited for the Pacific Northwest.

Nail pops are very common here due to our temperature swings, which cause the roof decking to expand and contract, pushing nails up. A popped nail breaks the shingle seal and creates a potential leak point. Our permanent fix involves carefully removing the affected shingle, securing the decking, and using longer, corrosion-resistant nails in a new location before resealing the shingle. We don't just hammer it down, as that's a temporary solution that often leads to recurring problems.

If you have active water leaking into your living space, visible sagging in the roof deck, or large sections of missing shingles after a storm, those are emergencies requiring immediate attention. For more subtle issues like isolated nail pops or minor flashing corrosion, schedule a prompt inspection. We help prioritize repairs to prevent small, common local issues from turning into major water damage, which can be especially problematic with our rainy seasons.
