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 Joplin, MO or need your existing one repaired.

FAQ

Can I install metal roofing myself, or should I hire roofing experts?
Well, some homeowners (DIY enthusiasts) may feel confident installing metal roofs themselves. However, we recommend that you hire a certified roofing expert to do the installation for you since they have the right tools for the job and experience. Roofing experts will also know the right design to use, and the right roof type your home needs based on your location. Therefore, it is best you leave the work of installing a metal roof to the experts.
Will metal roofing increase noise in my home when it rains?
If there is no insulation between the metal roof and the interior, metal roofs can be noisy. This is more common in barns, sheds, and smaller homes in warmer climates. In most modern homes, though, there is enough insulation and sound barrier between the roof and the inside of the house that it dampens the sound. Additional soundproofing can be installed to lessen the sound even more, making it practically silent.
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.
