Exposed Nail Sealing Services in Vancouver & Portland
Exposed nails on your roof are ticking time bombs for leaks. Whether from improper installation, shingle slippage, or normal wear, exposed nails create direct pathways for water to enter your home. At All Seasons Cleaning Services, we identify and seal exposed nails during routine inspections to protect your roof.
Why Exposed Nails Are a Problem
Roofing nails are designed to be covered and protected by overlapping shingles. When nails become exposed, several problems develop:
- Water infiltration - Rain follows the nail shaft directly into your roof deck and attic
- Rust and corrosion - Exposed steel nails rust, expanding and creating larger holes
- Wood rot - Constant moisture around nail penetrations causes deck deterioration
- Shingle damage - Rust stains spread to surrounding shingles, causing discoloration
Common Causes of Exposed Nails
High Nailing
Nails placed too high on shingles may not be covered by the overlapping row above.
Shingle Slippage
Heat, age, or improper installation can cause shingles to slip downward, exposing previously covered nails.
Flashing Nails
Nails used to secure flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys may become exposed over time.
Improper Repairs
DIY or hasty professional repairs may leave nails exposed that should be sealed or covered.
Wind Damage
Strong winds can lift shingle tabs, break seal strips, and expose previously protected nails.
Our Exposed Nail Sealing Process
Step 1: Systematic Inspection
We methodically inspect your entire roof surface, paying special attention to high-risk areas like flashing, valleys, and ridge lines.
Step 2: Document Findings
All exposed nails are identified and documented so you know exactly what repairs are needed.
Step 3: Apply Asphalt Sealant
Each exposed nail is sealed with roofing-grade asphalt caulk that bonds to surrounding materials and provides long-lasting waterproofing.
Step 4: Address Underlying Issues
If shingle slippage or other problems caused the exposure, we address those issues to prevent recurrence.
When to Check for Exposed Nails
- After any significant wind storm
- When scheduling routine roof cleaning
- If you notice rust stains on shingles
- After any roof work or repairs
- On roofs over 10 years old
- If you see shiny nail heads from the ground
