Metal roofing is known for its long lifespan, great look and resiliency. When your metal roof starts to leak or begins to fail, you can retrofit it with metal instead of replacing it. Metal-on-metal retrofits are a low-cost roofing maintenance option and cure for problems such as rust and corrosion, interior drips, loose seams, cracked penetrations, and even ice build-ups on your gutters.
Another option is to utilize a single-ply membrane over the top of your existing roofing structure. This option allows for increased reflectivity, monolithic waterproofing and is frequently less expensive than a metal-on-metal option.
Valley Hill Roofing provides quality and affordable metal retrofit roofs on commercial or industrial buildings throughout the area. We have a range of exciting options that will rejuvenate the look of your old metal roof, while providing for improved reflectivity, enhanced curb appeal and the potential for lower utility bills.
Metal on Metal Retrofit
When you add a metal-over-metal retrofit on your roofing system, you will enjoy the following benefits.
Easy installation – We can easily install the new retrofit over the existing system, in most cases. All we have to do is punch overlay members and attach them directly to your roof purlins before installing the metal panels atop the subframe. Our retrofits are compatible with most new metal roof panels including corrugated, FRP, and low-profile ribbed panels.
Longevity – Few roofing materials offer a longer life-span than metal. Metal roofing systems are known to be effective for up to 50 years, with proper maintenance.
Reinforce your building – Metal retrofit can make your building stronger even in the face of high winds and heavy snows. With the inclusion of wind loads in the same category as gravity or snow loads in the IBC, millions of metal roofs countrywide now fall short of building codes. Metal retrofits provides a code-conforming and roof-strengthening solution.
Membrane on Metal Retrofit
Placing a single-ply membrane over your existing metal roof allows for the these benefits:
Cost savings – Retrofitting your deteriorating metal roof with a single-ply membrane will help you save money in many ways. No demolition means no demolition costs. Then, there’s the energy-efficient aspect that can help you save money by reducing your cooling costs. You will also enjoy a greater return on investment for years.
No downtime – You don’t have to worry about moving valuable equipment to shield it from the elements or work interference. Our membrane based metal roof retrofit lets you carry on with your business as usual.
Energy efficient – Going for a membrane-over-metal retrofit can green up your premises and reduce heating and cooling costs. The materials are highly reflective and can reflect solar heat by up to 85%. This results in cooling costs savings of 30% to 50%!
