18. Improper sealing of penetrations

Most residential roofs have soil stacks that require proper sealing. Apply shingles up to the vent pipe and cut an opening in the shingle that is set over the pipe. Set the shingle in approved asphalt cement. Set the vent flange over the pipe - flat on the roof - in asphalt cement that has been evenly applied over the bottom shingle. The top of the flange must be covered with the next row of shingles. Remember that using an excessive amount of plastic cement may cause blistering.

Solution:

Repair improper detail by using a new flange and new shingles. Don’t forget to use IKO Shingle Stick!

19. Insufficient securing of valley

Roof valleys are the places on a roof that are most vulnerable to leaks because they handle a large volume of run-off water. When installing shingles in a roof valley never connect shingles or make joints close to the center line of the valley. It causes leaks.

Solution:

Remove the short pieces from the valley and install a full shingle or piece with appropriate length.

Do not join shingles in the center of the valley, roofer mistakes!

A good example of a secure valley is the Californian method!
