What is a Metal Roof Restoration?

When you’re in need of metal commercial roofing in Omaha, you have options to consider. One of your options is a metal roof coating or restoration system. If your commercial building has a metal roof, this is a great option for several reasons. This post highlights what you get with a metal roof restoration, and why you want to consider it if you’re looking for some new metal roofing in Omaha. 

Benefits of a Metal Roof Restoration 

The greatest benefits are cost and durability. A metal roof restoration is as good, or better than a traditional replacement. It’s is not a patch system, it’s a completely new roofing system that lasts long and protects your building.  

  • A metal roof restoration cost at least 50% less on average than a traditional metal roof replacement. 
  • When removing a metal roof panels during a roof replacement, the insulation under the roof is most often damaged and cannot be salvaged. With a metal roof restoration, there’s no risk of having to replace insulation.
  • Our metal roof restorations come with an 18-year leak free warranty that is non-prorated, fully transferable, and cover all our materials and labor. 

Aside from the cost and durability, the performance of a metal roof restoration is unmatched.  The system is seamless, water-tight, helps ensure the integrity of the roof’s hardware, saves on energy costs, and requires no trips to the landfill.  

  • The completely seamless system allows no water penetration—stopping and preventing rust on your commercial metal roof. 
  • The system can be easily recoated for a fraction of the original cost which in turn resets the warranty. 
  • The special caulks and coatings used will keep fasteners from loosening.
  • The white reflective topcoat reduces energy costs by up to 30%. 
  • No landfill waste to haul away during or after the restoration process
  • No damage to any insulation on the underside of the metal
  • The internals of the building will not be exposed and your business will not be disrupted.

The Armour Roof Co. Metal Roof Restoration Process 

  • The foundation for a successful metal roof restoration starts with the prep work. We thoroughly clean your existing metal roof with a high potency cleaner and pressure wash ensuring no debris or damaged sections are left behind. 
  • Any and all rust spots that are found are treated with a careful and thorough application of a rust inhibiting primer that stops any current rust and prevents future rust from occurring. 
  • Once your roof is cleaned and prepped the first layer of base coat is applied to the seams ensuring a strong base. 
  • Once the base coat has been applied a high tensile strength fabric called Spunflex is rolled onto the seam. A second layer of base coat is then applied over the Spunflex making the fabric fully embedded on all the seams. 
  • The next step is tightening down every fastener and enveloping them in a 30 year rated pliable caulking compound. 
  • The final step is applying a white reflective top coat over the entire surface in a single, seamless layer.
