Hey, guys. We're in Pearland, Texas, doing a roof maintenance, and I want to show you another example of why you need roofing screws. See how none of these nails have sealant on top?

The nails have popped up and left this flashing sticking up. Over time, water gets in where the nails used to be and rots out the plywood. That's why roof maintenance is so important.

If you don't have roofing screws, we put them in. A roofing screw has a rubber washer, so it doesn't even need sealant. It's a much better product.

If you need roof maintenance, let me know. (281) 250-1265. Stone Castle Roofing.
