Troubleshooting
Roof leaks after installation
Verify that all shingles are properly overlapped and fastened according to installation guidelines. Check for any damage to individual shingles or flashing around vents and edges. Consult a professional if the issue persists.
Noise during heavy rain
The sound of rain can be more audible with metal roofing. This is often mitigated by proper insulation and underlayment during installation. Ensure the roof deck is solid and the underlayment is correctly installed.
Discoloration or fading
While designed for durability, extreme prolonged UV exposure can potentially affect the finish over extended periods. Ensure the stone coating is intact and clean the surface gently if needed. Contact customer support if significant fading is observed prematurely.
Shingles appear damaged upon arrival
Inspect all shingles carefully before installation. If any are found to be damaged, do not install them and contact the retailer or Novecrafto customer support immediately for replacement.
