Metal Roof Coatings

Metal roof coatings

Metal roof coatings from Conklin Roofing Systems will extend the life expectancy of your metal roof home or business by preventing leaks, they are easy to apply and won't disrupt your business, work or personal life.

According to the National Roofing Contractors Association, the popularity of metal roofing products has increased dramatically over the past decade. And metal roofing has long been a popular choice for business owners because of its durability - much better than asphalt shingle, for example - and the fact it can withstand a wide variety of climates. It also is very lightweight and can be applied over other surfaces.

Metal roofing also is becoming more popular with homeowners because advances in technology have made this material much more versatile as a roofing alternative, with styles such as metal tiles, vertical panels and shingle and slate appearances. The metal used, be it steel, stainless steel, aluminum, copper, etc., is often recycled material and thus environmentally friendly. Best of all, a metal roof is fireproof, which has been the deciding factor in many businesses in choosing metal roofs.

But while metal roofing does have its benefits, there are a few drawbacks – and our metal roof coatings can solve those in lieu of a more costly complete re-roofing. The main problem with metal roofing is rust, especially with older roofs. Metal surfaces simply must have protection from things like acid rain, galvanic corrosion, and water and atmospheric oxygen corrosion. And where there's rust, there are bound to be leaks, and then a structure's problems are two-fold.

All of our metal roof coatings are seamless and will stop rust and leaks. They are lightweight, so it won't affect any foundational issues on your home or business. And they eliminate metal replacement or tear off. In addition, if a customer's structure has an old metal roof, it probably is not as energy efficient as it could be. By adding a reflective white top coat with our metal roof coatings, it reduces energy costs by lowering the temperature in the interior of the structure, which means less need for a cooling unit.

One option we offer is Maintain®, which was developed specifically for applications to new and aged galvanized steel roofs. Maintain® is a white water-based maintenance coating with the addition of two anticorrosive additives. It dries within hours and is environmentally friendly (VOC complaint).

Metal roofs can be very slippery and even noisy, so another of our metal roof coatings is an elastomeric rubber coating, which gives a structure the benefits of a rubber roof. This material is incredibly durable and flexible and very energy efficient. It also is slip-free and will dampen any rain or hail noise prevalent on older metal roof structures.
