Knoxville Roofers is inspecting an A-frame home for gutters and discovered that the roof had significant damage upon arrival. This home will be getting new gutters, gutter guards, and downspouts. This home has a roof that was not installed correctly. The shingles were not staggered perfectly, and there were many shingles missing and torn up. This is likely due to not being appropriately nailed. All exhaust vents and pipe boots should also be replaced. The metal flashing all around the home needs to be replaced.
