Metal Roof Overlay Systems

Benefits of a Metal Roof Overlay

A metal roof overlay offers these benefits for plant owners, property managers and business owners:

• Optimizes budget: A roof overlay reduces tear-off labor and material disposal costs. Covering your existing roofing with a Duro-Last overlay costs around 50% less than a full tear-off. 
• Keeps doors open: Removing a metal roof can sometimes disrupt parts of your operations. Roof retrofits can reduce disruption because we lay the new roof over your existing one, helping keep your building operational throughout the project.
• Saves time and protects people: Metal roof overlays can often be installed efficiently, helping shorten the project timeline. Retrofitting can also reduce some of the risks and complexities associated with roof removal.
• Preserves assets: With a retrofit, your existing roof can continue helping protect your building and its contents from the weather throughout the project.

Benefits of a Metal Roof Overlay

Exterior Pro Roofing offers two proven metal roof retrofit options. 

Metal Roof Over Metal Roof Overlay

Metal over metal roof overlays involve retrofitting a new metal roof over your existing metal roof. We install these in one of two ways:

1. Roof hugger: Our pros fasten notched metal supports called sub-purlins to the existing roof. Then they connect standing-seam panels to the sub-purlins. With roof huggers, you have more flexibility in choosing a metal roofing overlay system.
2. High clip: We attach high clips at intervals along the existing roof and install 238 T-standing-seam metal panels over the top. A metal-over-metal high clip retrofit costs a little less than roof huggers, but you can only use it with 238 T-metal roofs.
