He told me they were not nailed down as in "no nails" As far as I can figure the shingles are only being held in place by the sealant. He said when he was removing adjoining shingles there were no nails holding them in place. I have never heard of anything like this, if true. As I said, I will have a roofing inspector look at this when I am there. Unfortunately, I have no pictures at this point.
