Residential Metal Roof Repair Sevierville, TN

As you can see in the photo the bottom of the siding creates a gap that Is 3/4 of an inch to an inch.

I fixed this by custom bending and cutting flashing to match each section and I screwed it in and sealed it off. Then caulked the entire length of wooden trim.

In this picture you can see outlined in red is the flashing I added. I forgot to get a before picture but I added this piece. It went 16 inches up under the metal roofing and 6 inches up the siding. I sealed the metal to the wall and screwed it off. I then caulked all the screw heads. This is definitely waterproof and is more than likely the main reason it was leaking still. 

As you can see This piece of transition metal is not sealed or screwed off properly. This will allow for water penetration behind the transition metal and underneath it.

We took out the bottom 2 screws and added clear NP1 sealant to the bottom and back of the metal. Sat it in place and adhered it to the wall and screwed it off. You never want to put holes/screws in the roof if you don’t have to. This piece only needs screws in the wall section. The red line represents the sealant on the bottom and the arrows point to the sealant on the back.

in this picture, you can see the screws that were added along with the piece of metal.

Not only is this a pipe boot for a shingle roof but it’s in really bad shape.

This is the correct metal roof pipe boot that we installed. The roof took a lot of preparing and cleaning once the old one was removed. But it turned out great.

Unlike the other pipe boot, this one is a metal roof pipe boot but was still old and beginning to dry rot so we replaced it with this new one.

This chimney was built without a cricket so all the water runs down and against the back of the chimney causing the wood to rot out.

I removed some of the rotted wood and slid a piece of metal behind the wood. Then I put a piece over the front of the wood. This will keep out most of the water but this chimney needs to be rebuilt when the roof is replaced next. Which won’t be too long.

These pictures were taken from all around the roof. We only took a hand full of pictures as if we took one of each then we would have had 80 plus pictures so here are a few of bad screws, caulking, replacing screws, and such.

This is a kind of a makeshift diverter someone did to divert the water from this area as you can see there are holes in the caulk.

We cleaned this area very well and used clear NP1 to re-seal these areas. All the debris after cleaning out the area to be sealed.  

The new clear sealant is hard to see but it is there. It shows up a bit shinier than the old caulk.

As you can see these 2 sections of the metal roofing were bent pretty badly out of shape. 

We decided it was a good idea to use butyl under the metal and a type of liquid butyl along the outside edge of the bent metal.
