Home / Metal Roof Restoration
Stop the rust, seal the seams and fasteners, and get another 10 to 20 warrantied years out of the metal roof you already own, for a fraction of what a new panel system costs, with no tear-off and no shutdown underneath.
Certified To Install
It gets patched, it holds through one dry spell, and it is back the next time the wind drives rain the wrong way.
We find where the water actually gets in before anyone quotes you a system.
A full tear-off was quoted on a roof that may not need one, and nobody showed you the condition of the deck.
We say so when a roof does not need replacing, even though replacing it pays us more.
Mil thickness, ponding ratios, a system name you were told to trust. You are responsible for the building and cannot check a word of it.
Nothing happens on your roof without you knowing first. That is the rule here, not a slogan.
That is the one that costs the most and it is the reason this company exists. The contractor who came in sixty thousand dollars cheaper than us on a roof nearby is no longer trading. We are the ones installing the replacement.
Ask us who services your roof in year three. It is the only question on this page we can answer with a name.
A metal roof that leaks is not usually a worn out roof. It is a roof whose fasteners have loosened, whose seams have opened with thermal movement, and whose original coating has given up. The steel underneath is still doing its job.
Restoration treats the rust, resets and seals the fasteners, reinforces every seam and penetration, and locks the whole assembly under a seamless membrane. You keep the panels, you keep the building running, and you get a warrantied roof for a fraction of the replacement number.
Metal expands and contracts every single day. That movement is what backs fasteners out and pulls seams apart, and it is why a plain coat of paint over a metal roof fails so quickly.
Our systems embed a polyester fabric into the base coat at every seam, fastener line and penetration before the field is coated. The fabric bridges that movement instead of fighting it. As a Conklin Preferred Contractor, we install American-made systems and register every project for its full-term warranty.
Most metal roofs across Western PA are structurally sound long after they start leaking. What fails first is the fasteners, the seams and the coating, and every one of those can be repaired in place.
Surface rust is treated and primed, not torn off. Once it is sealed under a reinforced membrane, oxidation stops, because the moisture and oxygen that feed it never reach the steel again.
A restoration typically runs 50 to 70 percent of what a new panel system would cost, and the building keeps operating throughout. No crane, no open deck, no production stopped for a week.
We walk the roof, count the fasteners that have backed out, photograph every rust bloom and open seam, and give you firm numbers on restore versus replace.
Rusted areas are cleaned back to sound metal and primed with a rust-inhibitive primer, so the corrosion stops rather than continuing under the new coating.
Backed-out fasteners are replaced or reset, then every seam, fastener head, curb and penetration is sealed and reinforced with fabric, the points where metal roofs actually leak.
A seamless, reflective metal roof coating is applied across the panels and registered for a manufacturer warranty of up to 20 years, honored the full term.
Straight answers on cost, timeline, and what a restoration actually involves. No jargon, no sales pressure.
A free, photo-documented assessment and honest numbers on restore versus replace.
Usually not. Surface rust is a coating failure, not a structural one. As long as the panels are not perforated and the deck below is sound, the rust is treated and primed and then sealed under a reinforced membrane. We confirm it on a free, photo-documented assessment before quoting anything.
Almost never in the middle of a panel. They leak at the fasteners that have backed out over years of thermal movement, at lapped seams, and around curbs and penetrations. That is exactly where a restoration concentrates its work, which is why sealing beats replacing on most metal roofs.
A restoration typically runs 50 to 70 percent of what tearing off and installing a new panel system would cost, because you are not paying for demolition, disposal, new panels or the crane time to set them. We give you both numbers so the comparison is yours to make.
No. There is no tear-off, so the building is never open to the weather. Crews work on top of the existing roof and the business below keeps running. Most owners tell us the first thing they notice is a lower cooling bill.
A properly installed, fabric-reinforced system carries a warranty of up to 20 years, and at the end of that term it can be recoated rather than replaced. That renewable cycle is the point: you stop buying the same roof over and over.
