WHERE METAL ROOFS LEAK
The steel itself rarely fails. Metal roofs leak at the things attached to it: screws whose washers have dried out, laps where sealant has cracked, flashing at walls and chimneys, pipe boots, and ridge closures. We find the actual entry point and repair it there, not with a smear of caulk over the stain.

REPAIR OR REPLACE?
- Repair when leaks come from fasteners, laps or flashing and the panels are sound.
- Restore with a coating when the whole roof is aging but structurally fine. See metal roof maintenance.
- Replace when panels are rusted through across the roof or the system has reached the end of its life. See metal roof replacement.

METAL ROOF REPAIR QUESTIONS
HOW MUCH DOES METAL ROOF REPAIR COST IN AUSTIN?
It depends on what failed and how much of the roof it affects. Replacing a few fasteners is a small job; re-flashing a chimney or replacing panels is larger. You get a written estimate before any work starts.
ARE HAIL DENTS ON A METAL ROOF A PROBLEM?
Sometimes they're cosmetic and sometimes they're functional, such as cracked finish or damaged seams. An inspection tells you which, and insurance policies treat the two differently.
CAN YOU REPAIR A ROOF YOU DIDN'T INSTALL?
Yes. We repair standing seam and exposed fastener roofs regardless of who installed them.
CAN I CALL OUTSIDE BUSINESS HOURS?
Yes. Our line is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
