Essential Tips for a Successful Metal Roof Painting Project

Allow Ample Time for Proper Weathering:

Achieving outstanding results when painting a metal roof yourself requires careful timing. Before applying a fresh coat of paint, it’s crucial to ensure that your metal roof has undergone sufficient weathering. For recently installed roofs, allow a minimum of six months for proper weathering. Even if you despise the current color, check if your metal roof is at least six months old before attempting to repaint it after purchasing a new home.

Prep Your Roof Surface with a Thorough Cleanse:

The initial step in repainting a metal roof is diligently preparing its surface through a powerwash treatment. Thoroughly removing dirt, debris, rust, and grime from the roof’s surface before painting is essential.

Without proper cleaning, fresh paint can bubble and chip easily. It’s advisable to address any mold or mildew using a water and vinegar mixture.

Select the Perfect Paint for Your Metal Roof:

Metal roofing is renowned for its low maintenance requirements. However, choosing the wrong type of paint can significantly impact its durability and ability to withstand weather elements. For galvanized steel, opt for a zinc-based or acrylic latex paint. Look for paints that offer key advantages for your roof, such as water resistance, insect repellency, UV reflection, and fire resistance.

Master the Art of Paint Application:

While the application process is generally straightforward, it’s essential to approach it intelligently to ensure your safety and achieve a professional-looking final result. Utilize a sprayer to reach high areas or steep roof sections that are difficult to access on foot. Rollers and paint brushes specifically designed for metal surfaces work well too.

Expect to apply multiple coats of paint to adequately cover the surface, allowing ample drying time between each layer. Avoid walking on wet paint to prevent accidents and damage to your work, and always use a harness and non-slip shoes.

Elevate Your Home with a Metal Roof Replacement

If your metal roof is outdated and in dire need of a revitalization, consider replacing it entirely.

After our house flooded on Christmas we called Houston Restore Pros and they took time from their holiday to come out and assist us and walk us through the next steps. From mitigation to reconstruction the process was seamless and the experience was great. The office worked side by side with our insurance and got all the tough questions answered for us and handled everything on that end. They were able to restore my home to even better than they found it. We’re very happy we choose Houston Restore Pros.

Houston Restore Pros worked well with our insurance. Joe and crew were compassionate and highly efficient at the moisture mitigation. Joel was great at coordinating the different phases and letting us know what to expect. Dennis and team Manuel, Daniel, and Alex went above and beyond expectations! Joe and Kirk and their crews carefully moved the furniture out and back. I would hire this group again!

Ben was prompt with communication and they did nice work

JOEY

Ben and his team completed this project for us as sewer water backed up into the home. They did the demo which consisted of removing the base boards, tile/wood flooring, sheet rock, shower, etc. They put back the home in a timely and professional manner!
They installed sheet rock, tape and float, installed base boards, painted walls and trim, built a new vanity and painted, installed new plumbing fixtures, completed the tile shower with pan, tile in bath areas, and wood in bedrooms and living areas. Very reasonable pricing and completed a few small extras without hassling for additional monies.
I highly recommend Houston Restore Pro to complete any project you may have at your home or office!

We had a little flooding inside our house back in July 2024 and when we informed our insurance company, they have suggested Houston Restore Pros as one of the cleanup company. In a matter of few hours, Joe was at the house supervising the mitigation process which they did meticulously. We were satisfied with the results that we decided to let them finish the restoration and reconstruction of the entire first floor under the able watch of Ben who was very responsive to all our questions and making sure that he corrected everything that needed to be addressed promptly. I would highly recommend Houston Restore Pros to anyone who would be in the same predicament. Thanks again Joe, Ben and the entire crew.

Our house flooded in May and needed to be restored from 2 feet up down to the concrete foundation. Houston Restore Pros had us back in our house in December and it looks better than it did before the flood. Ben was very helpful during the process and whenever we needed a repair fixed or changed he was easy to get ahold of and was quick to send out someone to fix it. You can tell that he really cares about his customers. I've added some photos of the demo and the finished home. It really is beautiful.
