I had to be very careful inspecting this residential roof in Knoxville Tennessee. This roof had a big tarp that have been installed because there is a hole in the roof so I to make extremely careful not to step anywhere near this hole in the roof.
The old three tab shingles were definitely needing to be replaced and this roof is in bad shape from blistering and old age.
We won’t be able to save these all gutter guards when we are reroofing this house as well because they are in very bad shape.
All of the shingles were torn off and all rotten wood was replaced. The wood at the valley was the worst and definitely needed replaced. The rest of the wood was in good condition.
New charcoal GAF shingles were installed on this roof. All pipe boots were replaced. The ridge vent and shingles were all replaced and sealed. The customer should no longer have any leaks or issues.
The whole house had new gutter guards installed. The guards are black powder coated.
Old metal ridge vents cause Leaks. This is because Roof leaks can come in the gaps of the ridge vent and leaks can come through the exposed nails on the ridge vents that are not sealed.
The picture above is of a shingle that has a lot of granular loss and therefore is worn out and the picture below is of a shingle that has blistering. Both of these are reasons that this roof is getting replaced.
This residential roof is in bad shape and has a hole in it where someone might’ve stepped through it this tarp is covering the whole and blistering and we’re not shingles of the reason that this roof needs to be replaced along with the fact that it is 20 years old.
