What Are Typical Metal Roof Repairs?

The answer depends on the kind of metal roof. The popular exposed fastener metal panel roofs, or R panel roofs, often leak from one or more of the thousands of screws that pierce the metal. The isopropylene rubber washers degrade over time, and need to be replaced on average of every 10 years.  The screws must be installed to exactly the right depth, and exactly perpendicular to the metal panel, to insure that washer is evenly compressed and seals the hole. Clearly, on a slippery metal roof with thousands of these screws, human error is nearly impossible to avoid. That's why one of the most common panel roof repairs is white caulking sealing some, or even all, of the fasteners.

Because metal roofs are deceptively difficult to install correctly, the second common repair is due to poor installation. Missing edge pieces, bad flashing installs, overlapping pieces backwards so water runs under the downhill panel joint instead of over it, poorly cut panels... these are all surprisingly common. Sometimes the wind can lift panels that weren't properly secured, or maybe the fastener was installed into rotten decking that was never fixed before the metal roof install. All these issues are avoidable with careful professional installation, so call Cook Roofing Company if you're considering a new metal roof in Charlotte, MO or need your existing one repaired.

FAQ

Will a metal roof be too heavy for small structures?
No. In fact, metal roofs are lighter than asphalt shingle roofs by a greater margin. They are also lighter than slate and concrete tiles. You should not worry about metal roofing overloading your small structure.
Can a metal roof be installed over my old roof?
In most cases, Yes! Metal roofs weigh less than 1.6 pounds per sq. foot. This means that they will rarely overload existing roofs. Metal roofs can be installed over fiberglass or asphalt roofing. The double roofing can even help prevent overheating.
Do metal roofs attract lightning?
This is a major concern for many homeowners who are evaluating their options in roofing materials. A metal roof does not increase the chances of your home getting stroke by lightning. In fact, if your roof is struck by lightning, a metal roof can reduce the chances of your home catching on fire as it can discharge the electrical charge. In addition to this, it is non-combustible.
