On my recent Builders Warranty Inspection I encountered this framing nail left behind after the roofers pulled their jacks. They jack the roof to support their planks they work off of. This wasnt the only nail I found on this roof that the roofer left behind. In all I found eight nail heads exposed and not applied under the shingles. This is a simple mistake the roofer does because they misplace the nail from their guns and never cover the head with tar when they are done.
The manufactures want these guys to pull the shingle out and replace the shingle.
Give these nails time and eventually the water will travel through the head of the nail and make entry into the attic.
