Denver Roof Inspection: Granule Loss, Nail Pops & Cracking | Cenco Roofing

At Cenco Roofing, we’re committed to transparent and thorough roof inspections. Join our expert, Chris Murphy, as he inspects a roof at 3106 Franklin St on 7/11/2025. We immediately noticed significant granule loss in the gutters, a key indicator of underlying issues.

Our inspection revealed critical problems. We measured the roof temperature at a staggering 180 degrees Fahrenheit on a 90-degree day, indicating severe improper ventilation. This ‘cooks’ the shingles from the inside out, accelerating granule loss and compromising the roof’s integrity. We also found numerous nail pops, some showing rust, which means water is seeping into the decking and causing damage. The ridge cap was completely worn, lacking granules, further exposing the roof to the elements.

The magnified view of the shingle cracking clearly demonstrates how water can penetrate and cause extensive damage. These issues collectively point to a roof that has reached the end of its lifespan. Based on our professional assessment, we recommend a full roof replacement to protect the home from further water damage and ensure long-term structural integrity.
