Marcial Roofing | Roofing Services in Chattanooga, TN 37407

Nail pops are frequent here due to our temperature swings, which cause roof decking to expand and contract, pushing nails up. We don't just hammer them back down, as that's a temporary fix. Our expert repair involves removing the popped nail, sealing the hole with roofing cement, and securing the shingle with a new, properly placed nail covered with a matching sealant. This addresses the root cause and prevents future leaks.

Flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys often fails due to weathering, improper installation, or corrosion from our humid climate. We inspect all flashing points for gaps, rust, or separation. Our repair involves carefully removing the compromised flashing, preparing the surface, and installing new, corrosion-resistant metal flashing sealed with high-grade, waterproof materials to create a durable, watertight barrier specific to your roof's architecture.

In most cases, localized leaks from these specific issues can be expertly repaired without a full replacement. We start with a comprehensive inspection to assess the extent of the damage. If the overall roof structure and majority of shingles are sound, we perform targeted, permanent repairs on the failed flashing or nail pop areas. We always provide an honest assessment and only recommend a full replacement if it's truly necessary for your home's protection.
