Rusted Roof Screws
Replacing Your Roof is Expensive and Can be Avoided!
Replacing Rusted Roof Screws is an Easy Fix!
If you live near the coast, your metal roof is going to be affected by corrosion caused by the sea air. Fine particles of sea salt, usually formed by the evaporation of sea spray, creates a salt haze – and it is this haze which corrodes your roofing screws, causing them to breakdown. Once this process begins the performance is greatly compromised over their lifetime.
Besides being caused by salt air, corrosion of roofing screws can also result from acids carried through the air from industry and chemical sprays, U.V. from the sun, or humidity in tropical and damp areas.
Replacing Your Roof is Expensive & Can be Avoided!
Roofing screws are generally overlooked as having a detrimental effect, and they are something that usually no-one notices until it is too late – and the roofing iron has to be replaced!
Therefore, it is good policy to have the screws checked around every 5 years, as this will ensure that you keep on top of the problem of your roofing iron being affected by rusty screws.
It costs a lot less to replace the roof screws than the roof sheet that has become damaged due to the rusting screws!
