Roof Leaks on metal roofs
The most common cause of roof leaks on metal roofs are loose screws. Here in the foothills of Nevada County, the change of temperature from winter and summer combined with temperature changes during the day can be substantial. This temperature change exerts stress on fasteners on metal roofs. This stress causes fasteners to back out or unscrew. These screws often will lift along with the washers that seal the fastener, which provides an opening for water to enter.
The stress on metal roofs from expansion and contraction also will eventually cause the holes in the metal panels to enlarge. This is the major cause for metal roof failure.
There are several strategies for repairing or maintaining a metal roof.
- Inspect metal roofs for loose fasteners and tighten regularly.
- Coat your metal roof with highly reflective coating to reduce the effect of temperature change.
- Seal fasteners with a strong adhesive flexible caulking.
A professional roof coating job can add years to you metal roof. Gold Country Roofing in Grass Valley, CA uses ER Systems coating products and systems to repair and maintain metal roofs.

“The guys just rocked. They did a fabulous job.”
-Fred Niman
Fred’s house is just outside of Grass Valley off Highway 174. Fred had us install a GAF Elk Timberline 30 year roof. We installed new gutters with Leaf Solution gutter protectors. We also installed a ridge vent to keep his attic cooler and allow his insulation to work more efficiently. Thanks Fred!

A GOOD ROOFING CONTRACTOR IS WORTH HIS WEIGHT IN GOLD!
There are two components to buying a new roof:
- The Manufacturer
- The Installer
The Manufacturer provides the shingle warranty.
- 30year, 40 year, Lifetime (50 year).
- This warranty only covers defects in the material.
- These warranties are prorated over the lifetime of the warranty.
- These warranties typically don’t cover workmanship or roof leaks.
The Installer provides the workmanship warranty.
- This warranty should provide that the shingles will be installed in compliance with the Manufacturer’s specifications.
- This warranty should provide that the shingles are installed to industry standards and in a manner that the roof will not leak.
- Typically, the longer the workmanship warranty the better the roof job.
If the Installer fails at the roof installation, the manufacturing warranty is in jeopardy.
CONCLUSION: Emphasis should be placed on hiring a reputable installer with good references and tenure.
Gold Country Roofing has been serving Penn Valley, Nevada City, Grass Valley, Lake Wildwood, Lake of the Pines and the surrounding area for over 30 years. We offer a TEN YEAR workmanship warranty.

Thanks for taking care of my problem
“Stan, thanks for taking care of my problem.”
-Jerry Hund
Jerry’s problem was that a company installed a high profile gutter cover over his gutters. Not only was the gutter cover able to keep the leaves out of the gutter, but it was also keeping out most of the rain water! The gutter cover was installed without positive drainage to the outside of the gutter and virtually created a dam. This caused rain water to leak in behind the gutter and damage the overhangs.
We were able to solve the problem by removing the old gutter cover and installing a Leaf Solution gutter protector. This low profile leaf system virtually keeps out all the leaves, dust and dirt while letting the rain water in. This system comes with a manufacturer’s lifetime warranty. So, no more worries Jerry!
