Our Metal Roof Painting Process
1. Inspection
Before we begin working on your metal roof, our team of experts takes time to carefully inspect it. We’re looking for problem areas, such as structural damage and leaks. We won’t be able to move ahead with painting until these issues are addressed.
2. Cleaning
Next, we clean the roof with a power washer, washing away dirt, mildew and other debris that has settled on the roof. After this step, we need to let the roof dry for one to two days.
3. Rust Removal
We use a wire brush to remove loose, thick patches of rust. For other rust spots, we spray on a rust converter. Chemicals in the converter turn the rust into a paintable surface.
4. Priming
The next step is applying primer. First, we ensure it’s a clear day with moderate temperatures. We add primer as soon as we can following the rust removal to prevent flash rusting. We also use a primer that includes rust-inhibiting components.
5. Painting
After allowing the primer to dry, we paint the roof. We use professional sprayers, which allow us to work efficiently while applying a smooth, even coat across the entire roof, including seams and hard-to-reach areas. We end with a sealant, which adds one more layer of protection against corrosion.
6. Final Inspection
Lastly, we inspect the roof, making sure each section has been painted to the required thickness. We also provide the owner with any further instructions needed for proper maintenance.
Metal Roof Painting FAQs
How Long Does Metal Roof Paint Last?
This depends largely on what kind of paint is used. Premium metal roof paint lasts several decades. Mid-tier paint lasts 15 to 25 years. Standard paint lasts 10 to 15 years. Certain colors will fade more quickly than others, such as bright red. Climate also influences the life of metal roof paint, with high humidity, coastal areas, and warmer regions shortening its lifespan. Direct sunlight will also fade paint more quickly.
Can You Repaint a Metal Roof?
Yes! This is often a practical, cost-effective alternative to replacement. Repainting your metal roof is an effective line of defense against weathering and corrosion.
