Avoiding Installation Fails

Posted on: March 19, 2019 5 AM

Proper metal roof installation is paramount. However, the installation process is quite complex. It is all in the details.

Inherently, metal material doesn’t leak. But penetrations in metal roof panels cause leaks. Poorly installed fasteners and faulty sealing washers, for example, are often the source of pesky leaks. Transition details and corrosion can also cause problems. Nine times out of 10, the source of a metal roof problem is installation issues.

An expert installation team can help prevent leaks, extend life span and even avoid structural damage. Quality installation starts with precise measurements and continues on with a qualified team that is educated and trained through the industry resources available.

Proper installation is the bottom line when it comes to metal roofs, but there is most certainly a lot to read between the lines. In fact, you can read more on the intricate installation process from Chamberlin Vice President Bill Lawson in this Metal Construction News article.
