Metal Roof Restoration & Coatings

A metal roof that's leaking, chalking, or showing surface rust usually doesn't need to be torn off. Metal roof restoration— re-fastening loose panels, sealing the seams and fasteners, treating corrosion, and applying a full elastomeric coating system — can add 10 to 20 years of watertight service life for a fraction of the cost of a replacement. For property owners across Glenwood Springs, Carbondale, Aspen, and Snowmass, it's often the smartest move on a roof that still has good bones.

Metal roof coating contractors who know mountain roofs

If you've been searching for metal roof coating contractors near you in the Roaring Fork Valley, Rocky Mountain Exteriors has restored and recoated metal roofs across the Western Slope since 1990. We diagnose the existing system first — substrate, fastener pattern, seam condition, and coating compatibility — then spec a manufacturer-warrantable coating assembly that actually holds up to high-altitude UV, freeze-thaw, and heavy snow load.

What metal roof restoration includes

Every restoration is scoped to the roof in front of us, but most metal roof restoration projects involve re-fastening and replacing failed fasteners, rust treatment and primer where needed, reinforcing seams and penetrations with fabric-embedded sealant, and a reflective elastomeric topcoat that restores a watertight, energy-saving surface.

Restoration vs. replacement

Restoration isn't right for every roof. If the panels are too far gone, a new standing seam metal roof is the better long-term value, and for low-slope commercial assemblies our commercial roof coatingsteam handles BUR, modified, and single-ply substrates. We'll give you an honest read on which path pencils out.
