What Is A Shiner?

You may never have heard of a shiner in reference to your roof before but it’s important you know what it means and why it’s important.  Poor roof installation can lead to a host of problems and Phoenix Roofing understands the importance of regular inspections to ensure problems are addressed as soon as possible.

Shiners are basically roofing nails that protrude through the roofing deck allowing you to see the “shine” of the nail when inspecting your roof. These nails are improperly installed and miss the framing of the roof. This problem is common but can lead to bigger issues.

Shiners can collect condensation that can then drip into your attic space leading to water damage or mildew and mold growth. They need to be repaired completely before larger moisture issues develop.
