// Where Metal Roofs Fail

Common Commercial Metal Roof Problems

Metal roofs on warehouses, industrial buildings, and commercial facilities rarely fail all at once. They wear out at the details — and those details are exactly what a coating system is built to seal.

Corrosion

Rust & Surface Corrosion

Once the factory finish wears through, rust spreads across panels, laps, and fasteners — especially near the coast and on older roofs.

Fasteners

Loose & Leaking Screws

Daily heating and cooling works fasteners loose and dries out their rubber washers. Every backed-out screw is a potential leak.

Seams

Seam & Lap Separation

Panel seams and end laps open up as metal expands and contracts, letting wind-driven rain work underneath.

Heat

Rooftop Heat Gain

Bare or faded metal absorbs heat and pushes it into the building, driving up cooling costs on SoCal summer days.

Penetrations

Curbs, Vents & Skylights

Penetrations through metal panels are frequent leak points once sealants age and flashing loosens.

Age

Faded, Chalking Finish

A chalky, faded surface means the original finish is gone — the right time to restore before rust takes hold.

// Restore, Don't Replace

Why Coat a Metal Roof Instead of Replacing It?

If the panels are still structurally sound, replacing a metal roof is usually money spent on a problem a coating can solve.

  • Seals the whole roof — a seamless membrane over panels, seams, and fasteners
  • Stops rust in its tracks — treated, primed, and sealed from the weather
  • Cuts rooftop heat — a white, reflective cool roof surface
  • No tear-off — less cost, less waste, no exposed building
  • Business stays open — work happens on the roof, not inside

// Coating Systems

Silicone vs. Acrylic Metal Roof Coatings

We install both — and recommend the one that fits your roof's slope, drainage, and budget.

System 01

Silicone Roof Coating

  • Highly durable and weather-resistant
  • Stays flexible as metal expands and contracts
  • Holds up well where water ponds or drains slowly
  • Low maintenance once installed

System 02

Acrylic Roof Coating

  • Water-based and UV-resistant
  • Bright, reflective finish for energy savings
  • Flexible, waterproof membrane over panels and seams
  • Well suited to sloped metal roofs that drain freely

// How It's Done

Our Metal Roof Coating Process

A coating is only as good as the prep underneath it. Most of our work happens before the first coat goes on.

01

Assessment

We inspect panels, fasteners, seams, and penetrations, and confirm the roof is a good candidate for coating.

02

Cleaning

The roof is power washed to remove dirt, chalking, and loose material so the coating bonds properly.

03

Rust Treatment

Rusted areas are treated, and a primer is applied where the system calls for it.

04

Seams & Fasteners

Seams, fasteners, and penetrations get extra attention and reinforcement — the most common leak points.

05

Coating Application

The silicone or acrylic system is applied across the full roof surface, then allowed to cure.

06

Inspection & Warranty

Final inspection and touch-ups, cleanup, maintenance guidance, and your warranty paperwork.

// Questions

Metal Roof Coating FAQs

Can you coat a rusty metal roof?

Yes, as long as the panels are still structurally sound. Surface rust is cleaned and treated, and primer is applied where needed before the coating goes on. Panels that are rusted through are repaired or replaced first.

Will a coating stop leaks at fasteners and seams?

Fasteners, seams, and penetrations are where most metal roof leaks start, so they get extra prep and reinforcement before the full roof is coated. The finished coating forms a seamless membrane over the entire surface.

Should I choose silicone or acrylic for my metal roof?

Silicone is very durable and handles areas where water drains slowly. Acrylic is a bright, UV-resistant option that works well on metal roofs that shed water freely. We recommend the system after looking at your roof's slope, drainage, and budget.

Does a metal roof coating reduce heat and energy costs?

A white, reflective cool roof coating reflects sunlight instead of absorbing it, which lowers the roof surface temperature and can reduce the cooling load on the building below.

Is coating cheaper than replacing a metal roof?

Usually, yes. Coating restores the existing roof without a tear-off, new panels, or disposal costs. If the roof is too far gone to coat, we'll tell you and walk you through replacement options.

Can my business stay open during the coating project?

In most cases, yes. All the work happens on the roof, with no tear-off, so operations inside the building can usually continue as normal.

Are metal roof coatings covered by a warranty?

Yes. Coating systems come with manufacturer product warranties, and our workmanship warranties cover our installation.
