corroded metal sheet
What are the challenges faced by metal roof
Corrosion
Physical damages
Loose overlaps and screws
Water ponding

Ultimately water leakage happens.

How do  the above happens

The sand accumulated in the roof from sand storm.
The wind from sea is salty and humid.
Water contamination due to rain and humidity.
Physical activities in the roof.
Wind uplift – Position of building slopes against the usual winds.
Presence of if any harmful gas emitting industries nearby.

The sand, Water and salty content mix together and let the roof corrode, once corrosion starts it will continue rapidly

Physical changes and loose fasteners  (Screws ) and seems ( overlaps ) holds the Sand + Water + Salt content and promote the corrosion

Presences of machines that vibrate the building make the fasteners and seems loose.

Repairing process of  metal roof
Initially you have to remove the accumulated sand and dirt from the roof top

            Tight the loose screws or replace the damaged.

Major corrosions -   Cut and Remove the corroded area then replace with parts of new roof panel and water proof the surrounding.
Repair or replace the roof panels, Valley gutters, and downspouts.

When we select the waterproofing material please consider the below conditions.

Permanent flexibility
