TLC Pro Roofing recently completed a major restoration project on a 350,000 sq. ft. standing seam metal roof in Ohio. Over the years, this roof had been exposed to the elements, experiencing typical wear and tear. The effects of thermal shock—caused by the region’s significant seasonal temperature changes—had shifted panels and loosened fasteners, leading to small leaks across the roof’s surface. Challenges Faced The sheer size of the roof alone presented a significant challenge for the team. Spanning over 350,000 square feet, managing a roof of this scale requires precise coordination, detailed planning, and a skilled crew. Another challenge stemmed from the roof’s existing condition. The movement of the metal panels had allowed water to penetrate the seams, and addressing these vulnerabilities was crucial to the building’s long-term integrity. In addition to these physical challenges, it was essential to find a solution that would not only repair the leaks but also protect the roof from future damage—while simultaneously improving the building’s energy efficiency. A full roof replacement would have been costly and time-consuming, so the focus was on providing an effective restoration solution. The Solution After thorough assessment, our team applied a 15-year Everest Sikoxy H3 silicone system across the entire roof surface. This high-performance silicone system was chosen for its durability, weather resistance, and energy-saving properties. Our crew expertly coated the roof, ensuring that every panel and seam was sealed and reinforced. The installation process was done with precision to avoid disruptions to the company’s daily operations. Benefits of the Everest Sikoxy H3 System Long-Lasting Protection: With a 15-year warranty, this system ensures that the roof will be safeguarded from leaks and damage caused by the elements. The silicone system is designed to expand and contract with the metal, providing a flexible yet durable barrier. Energy Efficiency: One of the standout features of this restoration is the new white silicone surface, which reflects sunlight rather than absorbing it. This helps reduce the building’s internal temperatures during warmer months, ultimately lowering energy consumption and cutting cooling costs. Cost-Effective Restoration: By choosing to restore the existing roof rather than replace it, the building owner avoided a lengthy and costly roof replacement. The silicone system was a faster, more affordable solution that extends the life of the roof while providing immediate benefits. Weather Resilience: Given Ohio's variable climate, the Everest Sikoxy H3 system was the perfect choice to withstand thermal cycling, rain, snow, and UV exposure, ensuring the roof remains protected through all seasons. Before and After The transformation is clear in the before-and-after photos. The roof went from showing signs of aging and wear to a sleek, bright white surface that not only enhances the building's aesthetics but also offers superior protection and performance. This project highlights TLC Pro Roofing’s expertise in tackling large-scale commercial roofs and delivering long-lasting results. The combination of top-quality materials, skilled craftsmanship, and attention to detail has ensured that this roof will continue to perform optimally for many years.
