Metal sheet roof systems are the most common roofing material used to waterproof industrial buildings. By far the most common problem you get from metal sheet cladding is cut edge corrosion. This problem occurs where the cut edge of the metal sheet has been cut to size and the edge coated in plastisol has been exposed. Overtime the elements lead to corrosion of this exposed edge. It works its ways up the sheet eroding the plastisol which provides the sheets protection. If this is not treated the result will be a full replacement of the corroded metal sheet.
The way to treat cut edge corrosion on industrial roofs is to use a high pressure spray to clean down the surface. Then remove any lose paint and corrosion with a hand grinder. Tape all the joints in the roof with butyl tape and cover all the screws. Use a sealant to fill any gaps over 2mm in diameter. Treat the cut edge corrosion with a a sealant. Then cover the all of the metal roof sheets with an appropriate coating. Once this repair work is complete, if properly maintained the roof can last another 10 to 25 years.
