Stanley And Son Roofing | Roofing Services in Ellsworth, ME 04605

Properly installed gutters are your roof's first line of defense. When granules wash off shingles, they often clog or damage old gutters, causing water to back up under the roof edge. Our gutter installation and replacement services ensure efficient water diversion away from your roof and foundation. This prevents ice dams in winter and stops water from sitting against your shingles, which slows further granule loss and protects your roof's lifespan.

It's possible. Nail pops are often caused by framing movement due to temperature changes and moisture—common in our Maine climate. A skylight opening can sometimes alter how a roof deck expands and contracts. Our skylight repair and installation experts at Stanley And Son check the integration of the skylight with the surrounding roof structure. We ensure proper flashing and sealing to minimize movement that leads to nail pops, addressing both the symptom and potential root cause.

In Ellsworth, granule loss from asphalt shingles is a frequent issue. Those granules end up in your gutters, creating a sandy sludge that weighs them down, causes blockages, and accelerates corrosion. Simply repairing the roof doesn't solve the gutter problem. We often recommend gutter replacement because old gutters filled with granules are no longer functioning optimally. New gutters ensure proper drainage, which is critical to preventing the water backup that further damages already-compromised shingles.
