While metal roofs possess durability and strength, they also come with inherent challenges. The constant exposure to powerful weather, fluctuating temperatures, and general aging can loosen over time or corrode seams and fasteners which create potential failure and leakage points. A.G. Roof Coatings has developed A Grade solutions for metal restoration that reinforce the integrity of the structure while significantly increasing lifespan, aiding businesses in evading expensive repairs and replacements.
Why Metal Restoration Matters
Extended periods of warmer temperatures during the summer months lead to increased thermal expansion in metal roofing, resulting in prolonged stress on seams and fasteners, increasing the likelihood of leaks.
Every metal roof has a fundamental flaw in the form of numerous linear seams and many others seemingly have an endless number of fasteners. These seams and panel fasteners undergo repeated thermal expansion and contraction with temperature changes, which can lead to loss of integrity and create potential leak points. Incorrect installation of metal panels, such as over-tightening fasteners, can compromise the fastener’s seal and eventually cause the screw to erode through the metal panel.
Example:
A 10,000 sf (200 ft by 50 foot) metal roof would have up to 3000 linear feet of seams, equivalent to 30 football fields worth of potential leak points. Additionally, a metal roof has about 80 fastener holes per 100 sf, totaling an additional 8000 potential leak points.
Liquid-applied roof coatings provide a seamless, durable roofing layer that eliminates these potential leak points, ensuring years of reliable and worry-free protection.
Our Metal Restoration Process
Our A-Grade restoration process is thorough and designed specifically around your building’s unique needs. First, we inspect every inch of your roof, pinpointing compromised areas, leaks, loose seams, and worn fasteners. Next, our experienced team carefully cleans the surface, ensuring all dirt, rust, and previous coatings are removed, creating the optimal surface for restoration.
Then, we carefully apply high-quality, liquid-applied coating products, creating a resilient, waterproof layer across your entire metal roof. This layer effectively seals leaks, reinforces seams and fasteners, and provides a uniform, reflective surface. By addressing and eliminating every potential problem area, our process ensures that your restored roof stands firm against future weather and environmental stressors.

Benefits of Metal Roof Restoration
With our metal restoration service, you’ll quickly notice several significant benefits:
- Cost Savings: Metal restoration is far more affordable compared to full roof replacement. Additionally, the expenses related to the restoration process can be fully tax-deductible, improving your financial outlook from the outset.
- Energy Efficiency: The reflective nature of the restoration coating dramatically reduces heat absorption, lowering your cooling costs, especially during hot summer months. The coatings utilized in a metal roof restoration meet the requirements of Cool Roof Technology. Learn more from the Department of Energy. (Add reflective graphic)
- Increased Lifespan: Metal roof restoration can significantly extend the service life of your by decades, helping avoid frequent and expensive maintenance or replacement. This increased lifespan is a result of less UV damage due to the reflective nature of the coatings.
- Environmental Sustainability: By choosing restoration, you eliminate waste associated with roof tear-offs, contributing positively to environmental conservation efforts.
