What problems occur in Shingle Roofs. How shingle roofs are repaired.

Shingle roofs are a type of roof installed using a type of material which is called shingles. 

The following problems occur in shingle roofs:

• Moisture damage
• Squirrel damage
• Buckling and curving sheets of material
• Sagging from rafters due to gravity pulling down heavy materials onto these areas where the roof leak has occurred.
• Shingle roofs are prone to leaks, especially in the valleys and other low areas where water can pool.
• Shingle roofs are also prone to loosened or missing shingles due to deteriorating roof nails.

Shingle roofs can be repaired by 

• replacing the broken or damaged shingles with new ones, 
• by sealing up any leaks and cracks that may have been caused by weather damage to the roof.

What problems occur in Metal Roofs in Nottingham. How Metal Roofs are repaired.

Metals roofs may be made of zinc, copper, aluminum and steel. Though typically strong against corrosion from the elements, their surface can get scratched which leaves it vulnerable to leaks. A professional contractor like us should be able to apply a new layer of sealant or even replace metal panels that require replacement due to wear-and-tear over time.

The metal roof is typically made up of a steel sheet or aluminum coated with a protective paint that's baked on at high temperatures. The coating prevents corrosion by protecting the underlying metal from oxidation; this also helps retain color longer. It can be tinted in any range of colors which may match well with other building materials as they're much more durable than asphalt roofs- meaning less maintenance for homeowners!

Metal roofs aren't immune from getting dents, scratches or even rust spots on them – though obviously small imperfections don't mean it's time to replace the entire roof. Small dents can be repaired by a professional contractor, and any rust spots or scratches should simply be sanded off before they get worse.

Copper roofing repair in Nottingham

Copper roofs are created by applying copper sheets over top of an insulation layer like felt paper, then finally sealing them together using molten lead or tin solder (a process called "soldering". ) The result is a roof that has the beauty and durability of copper. 

• It doesn't take much for a copper roof to get scratched up by tree branches or other debris blown across it from time to time. 

But if you do notice any damage, there are several ways in which this can be fixed! 

• Steel wool to buff out the scratches until they're gone completely. 
• If scratch is deeper than just removing surface dirt and grime, sanding down before applying a new layer of tin solder over top could be performed. It is recommended not to let things go too long without repairing otherwise more permanent solution is to apply copper patina and then coat the whole roof with auquanet, which will create a durable seal that helps prevent further corrosion.
• A more extreme way of repairing your roof is by using an epoxy resin mixed in addition to solder or patin - this can be used for anything from shingles to metal roofs! Acetone (a solvent) as well as a clear coat spray like Krylon ColorMaster Clear Coat will be required. The coating on top will help protect against future rust damage while also protecting it from UV rays so you won't have any discoloration over time.
• Copper roofs are extremely expensive because they're made out of pure copper! Damage to copper roofs include corroding of the metal as it's a relatively soft material. To fix this, you'll need to reseal and repaint your roof every few years!

EPDM roof problems in Nottingham

• The most common problem is deterioration since this type of material has limited life expectancy so when cracks or splits start to form, it means the roof is near the end of its lifespan.
• The second most common problem for EPDM Roofs is a buildup in ice during winter months which can lead to cracks on the surface area that are irreversible after spring thaw occurs when temperatures warm up and melt away any snow accumulations from warmer air currents blowing over your property. 

EPDM roof repair in Nottingham
