Commercial Metal Roof Coating
Equipment barns and shops get the full process: wash, fastener pass, primer, fabric at laps, and the field coat.

As a Sheridan metal roof coating contractor, we coat steel roofs on farm, equipment, and shop buildings, working around the machines and seasons below.

Sheridan metal roof coating covers a lot of agricultural and shop buildings: machine sheds, grain-handling shops, storage barns, and steel buildings with wide doors and open bays.
These roofs see dust, bird droppings, and condensation from the inside. We plan coating days around planting, harvest, and equipment moves, so the building stays usable when you need it most.
Farm and shop roofs wear differently from office roofs. These are the conditions we see most on them.
Moist air from open doors and livestock or stored crops reaches the underside of the laps. Rust starts there and works outward.
Bare steel over a cold building sweats on warm, humid days. Coating handles the outside, and we note where insulation would help inside.
Grain dust and bird droppings hold moisture against the coating surface. A thorough wash comes before any primer.
Vibration from equipment and big doors works fasteners loose near the eaves. Those rows get tightened or upsized.
Drips over stored machinery or feed need attention now. We trace them to the lap or screw row and seal it first.
Chaff and dust pack ridge vents on farm buildings, trapping moist air under the panels. We clear them so the roof dries out from inside.
Most farm and shop roofs in Sheridan take the metal coating process. These systems cover the other parts of a property.

Equipment barns and shops get the full process: wash, fastener pass, primer, fabric at laps, and the field coat.
Low-slope lean-tos and additions that hold water after storms take silicone, which handles ponding.

Pitched barn roofs that shed water fast can take acrylic, a lower-cost coat that recoats easily later.

An uninsulated shop with condensation and leaks at many laps can take spray foam and a topcoat.

A farm office or house-style front building with commercial shingles can get a shingle coating.
Water on machinery or feed costs more than the leak itself. A roof walk traces the drip to its lap or screw row before the next storm.
For farm and shop owners, coating protects what is stored inside while the building keeps working.
A sealed, coated roof keeps rain and snowmelt off machinery, stored crops, and tools, and it slows the rust that open bays and humid air bring to the panels.
Primer and coating seal the laps that see the most moisture in farm and equipment buildings.
A light-colored coat reflects sun and keeps the building cooler for people and stored goods.
Coating days are set to fit planting, harvest, and equipment moves on your calendar.
Same four stages, timed around the farm calendar.
We walk the roof and the inside of the building, checking laps over open bays, rust under the panels, and drips over stored equipment.
Loose screws near doors are tightened or upsized, rusted-through panels are swapped, and laps are stitched closed.
A thorough wash removes grain dust and droppings. Rust is brushed back and primed, and laps get fabric before coating.
Base and top coats go on at the data sheet rate during dry weeks that fit your planting and harvest schedule.
Sheridan is one of six places we coat roofs. The nearby towns are below; for a farm or shop elsewhere, call us or send us a message.
Light industrial and flex buildings with several tenants under one roof.
Shops and warehouses with exposed-fastener steel roofs.
Retail, church, and storage buildings.
Commercial, industrial, and farm roofs.
Farm buildings, shops, and commercial structures around Sheridan are all roofs we coat. Many have exposed fasteners, rusted laps, and open bays, so we treat rust, replace screws, seal laps, and then coat.
For a church hall in the Sheridan area, low spots that hold water point to silicone, while a pitched roof that drains well suits acrylic. Silicone recoats only with silicone, and acrylic costs less per gallon.
Our ballpark calculator gives about $2.50 to $4.00 per square foot for coating. On a farm or shop building, rust repairs, panel swaps, roof height, and wash time for dust move a job within that range.
We work out of Noblesville and cover Sheridan as one of our six areas. Call or send the roof size through the ballpark form to set up a roof walk.
Coating seals the outside of the roof, while condensation forms inside when warm, damp air meets cold steel. Spray foam adds insulation above the deck, and ventilation changes help from inside.
