Advantages of Metal-retrofitting
Learn about Metal-retrofitting and why it might be the best option for your existing metal roof in Vermont.
Metal-retrofitting is the process of overlaying a metal roof with rigid insulation and a single-ply membrane. Because of how metal-retrofit systems are installed in Vermont, they have some amazing advantages:
- Convenient application
- Energy efficient
- Amazing long-term performance
Learn About Convenience of a Metal-retrofit System
One of the major perks of a metal-retrofit system is the convenient application. Unlike many other roofs, this can be installed directly over a pre-existing metal roof, therefore no tare off of the existing roof is required. This helps lower cost of installation and the installation is far less disruptive.
Learn about the Energy Efficiency of Metal-retrofitting
The layering process leads to a more energy efficient roof, through being highly reflective and improving the R=value. The highly reflective TPO membrane offers additional energy savings that other roofing options may not have. The other energy savings advantage you receive from a metal-retrofit system is improved R-value, adding in access of R=20 for a standard R-Panel metal roof. This helps keeping heat out in the summer and in during the winter, with an additional perk of reducing noise for the occupants.
Learn about the Long-Term Performance of the Metal-retrofit System
Lastly, a metal-retrofit system has a proven history of long-term performance that provides a lasting solution similar to coatings and spray-applied restoration products. Not only does it have a proven history of amazing performance, but it is also backed by a total system warranty of up to 20 years.
Overall a metal-retrofit system is a great option for someone looking for convenience, versatility, energy efficient, and long-term performance.
