Service Area · Hartland, CT
As a Hartland metal roof coating contractor, we check and coat barn, shop, and storage roofs on rural properties after wind and storms.

Hartland metal roof coating often follows a storm. Wind lifts ridge caps and trim, branches dent panels, and driven rain finds every loose fastener on a barn, shop, or shed.
We check every building on the property after a storm, repair what moved, and coat roofs that still have solid steel under them.
Storm damage on Hartland roofs follows a familiar pattern.
Checking and coating after storms gives a Hartland property four benefits.
A post-storm walk catches lifted caps before the next rain gets in.
Barn, shop, and sheds get checked in the same visit.
Refastened caps and trim resist the next wind better.
Coating ties repaired areas into the rest of the roof.
Replaced screws along exposed edges resist the next uplift.
Matching profiles go in where storms punctured the steel.
Cleared, sealed gutters carry storm water away from the buildings.
Roof walk notes and photos document what each storm did.
Hartland properties often mix building types. These are the options for each.

Bristol Shingle Roof CoatingCall us to set up a check of every roof on the property. We will repair what moved and tell you which roofs are ready to coat.
Storm repair comes before coating on Hartland roofs.
We walk every roof on the property after the storm, mark lifted caps, loose fasteners, dents, and punctures, and check inside for new leaks.
Caps, trim, and fasteners are refastened or replaced, and punctured panels are swapped out.
The roof is washed, rust is ground off, and bare metal is primed.
The field coat goes on over repaired and original areas alike, tying them into one membrane.
Hartland is on our list from Bristol, along with the towns below. Outside them? Call us or send us a message.
Repairs to caps, trim, fasteners, and panels add to prep, moving a roof within the published $2.50 to $4.00 per square foot range. Panel replacement is listed separately.
Coating is done once. Checks after storms find damage early, and repairs keep the coated roof sealed.
We work from Bristol and cover Hartland. Call or use the estimate form to set up a property check.
Dented panels with intact steel often can. Punctured or torn panels get replaced first, then coated with the rest.
From the ground, look for lifted caps, bent trim, and branches on the roof, and check inside for new drips. Leave climbing to the roof walk.
Hartland's building department decides from the scope. Storm repairs that replace torn panels or damaged framing are more likely to need a permit than sealing and coating, so we list them separately.
Temporary repairs to stop water are usually wise right away. Photos and notes from the roof walk give you a record of what the storm did for any claim you choose to make.
Once it is safe to walk the roof and the surface is dry. Call with a description of the damage so the visit can be planned for the buildings that leak first.
Tell us what the storm did. We will check every roof and price the repairs and coating.
