It would if it was leaking around the screw. I also need to make sure the gutters aren't clogged. I think that is what caused the leaks.
Why would it be leaking around the screws. the roofing comes over the edge and behind the trim. The back of the trim has butyl rubber strip to keep water from coming in. therefore if the screws are rusty, the roof membrane had been compromised, the butyl seal is not doing the job, or both. Therefore if the roofing is ok and the butyl rubber is doing its job, the screws will be like new. You really need to find out how the water is getting in and fix it. New screws doesnt fix the problem in my opinion.
BTW I am trying to be helpful and not confrontational.:C
