Rhode Island Slate Roofing is a leading roofing company in Rhode Island and we often come across roofs that have been installed and worked on incorrectly. Here are some of the common mistakes we see made by inexperienced roofing contractors.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Improper Nailing<\/strong>: Nail placement may seem more important than you think. Improper nail placement could lead to damaged shingles and leaking.<\/li>\n
  2. Starter Singles<\/strong>: Whether someone uses starter shingles incorrectly or not at all, there can be problems caused during the installation process.<\/li>\n
  3. Flashing<\/strong>: Flashing is extremely important and when installed incorrectly, water can make its way into your home all over.<\/li>\n
  4. Ventilation<\/strong>: An attic and ceiling needs ventilation. Without it, moisture will build up over time causing serious damage to your roof.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The various mistakes\u00a0a non-professional can make\u00a0are endless. When it comes to a roof repair, replacement or inspection be sure you are working with a professional.
