Tune-up
Pre-Treatment Roof Tune-Up in Indian Rocks Beach
Treatment only pays off when every slope is sound to begin with. The tune-up handles the small, specific faults the assessment turned up, one slope at a time, before any treatment goes on.
What the tune-up covers
Exposed nails
Nail heads left bare by lifted or worn shingles are sealed over so they are no longer open to the weather.
Flashing
Edges of flashing at walls, chimneys and valleys are resealed where they have opened up.
Vents and pipe boots
Vents and pipe boots that have worked loose are fastened back down and sealed around.
Loose or missing shingles
Shingles that have slipped are fixed back in place, and missing ones are replaced as close a match as we can find.
Where a tune-up stops
We keep this job small on purpose, and we say so before any work starts.
Part of the tune-up
- A handful of loose or missing shingles
- Exposed nail heads on any slope
- Flashing edges that need resealing
- Vents and pipe boots that have shifted
Passed to a roofer
- Leaks that have already reached inside
- Storm damage across a slope
- Rotten or soft decking
- Re-roofing a section or the whole roof
Why the fixes come first
Rejuvenation works on the asphalt in shingles that are still in place. A gap where a shingle blew off, a bare nail head or a vent that has worked loose stays exactly as it was after treatment, so those get fixed first and the roof is treated once it is sound from ridge to eave.
On the island, summer storms and salty wind work at exactly these edges. We go slope by slope, mark each fault, fix it, and show you what was done before treatment day is set. If the assessment finds nothing to fix, there is no tune-up at all and the roof goes straight to shingle treatment.
