Let’s say your existing standing seam roof is wearing out but you don’t want to replace it, or you want to lower your utility bills, or both. Consider what we call a retrofit metal roof installation, which is a layover for commercial and industrial buildings. In this service, we fill the gaps between the seams with Flute Fill insulation to create a flat surface with better R-value, and then we cover the entire roof with a tough Duro-Last membrane.
The result is that you can keep your existing standing seam roof (which is less expensive than replacing the whole thing), and you can get better R-value on your roof and lower your heating and cooling costs. Also, this type of layover creates less disruption to your business or facility, because it’s quicker and less invasive to install.
You’ve probably never heard of this option. Even a lot of commercial roofers don’t know what a Flute Fill system is, when to do it, or how to do it. Most will always tell you to tear off the old standing seam roof and replace it with a new one. Others will say that they can stop all the leaks with a new coating. But if you own a building with a low-slope standing seam roof, the retrofit metal roof is an option you need to know about, because it can spare you a ton of frustration and save a ton of money, starting immediately.
The Duro-Last membrane comes with a 20-year NDL warranty. We’re factory-trained and certified installers of Duro-Last, and we’ll service the roof for 2 years after installation. After that, the Duro-Last NDL warranty kicks in and covers you for the rest of the 20 years.
If you own a commercial or industrial building in the Lower Peninsula of Michigan, and have a standing seam roof that isn’t weather-resistant enough OR that drives up your energy costs, contact CS Roofing Company. We’ll assess your situation and give you an estimate on a Flute Fill system with a Duro-Last membrane.
