Commercial Metal Roof Painting
Urethane and elastomeric roof coating systems that restore metal roofs, improve cleanability, and extend service life without full replacement.
Markley's Precision restores commercial and industrial metal roofs with coating systems selected for weather exposure, substrate condition, adhesion requirements, and long-term maintenance goals.
Our crews prepare corrugated, standing-seam, and other metal roof systems by cleaning, addressing loose coating or corrosion, and applying coatings designed for UV exposure, temperature swings, and daily facility use.
For building owners comparing replacement against restoration, metal roof painting can extend asset life, improve reflectivity, and reduce disruption when the roof is structurally sound enough to coat.

Metal Roof Painting Applications
Protective coating systems for commercial, industrial, warehouse, agricultural, and manufacturing metal roofs.
Exterior metal roof coatings are subjected to environmental conditions including UV rays, sun damage, rain, and temperature fluctuations ranging from extreme heat to extreme cold. Drastic daily temperature swings during spring and fall can cause severe expansion and contraction, leading to coating loosening and premature failure.
We opt for lighter colors such as whites and light tans to aid in reflecting heat, keeping the surface cooler and mitigating temperature changes. This contributes to energy savings and extends coating life. Urethane coatings are renowned for their superior color and gloss retention.
- Enhanced Cleanability & Cost Efficiency: Glossy surfaces are easier to clean, reducing maintenance costs
- Extended Roof Longevity: Warrantied maintenance services save on reinstallation costs
- Safety Hazard Reduction: Eliminates hazards from old, peeling paint or corroded areas
- Improved Energy Efficiency: Lowers energy costs by improving building insulation
- Regulatory Compliance: Ensures compliance with FDA, USDA, EPA standards
- Property Value Enhancement: Increases property value and ROI

Our Process
Initial Assessment & Infrared Survey
We begin with a thorough assessment including an infrared survey of your existing roof system to ensure it is dry and suitable for coating. This crucial step determines the best approach for your specific roof.
We begin with a thorough assessment including an infrared survey of your existing roof system to ensure it is dry and suitable for coating. This crucial step determines the best approach for your specific roof.
We meticulously assess the condition of flashings, seams, pipe boots, drainage systems, and other protrusions to ensure they are in good shape and identify any repairs needed.
We collaborate with local roofing contractors to address any repairs beyond what simple sealing could fix. This ensures repairs are executed correctly, providing a superior final product.
The most crucial step in the coatings process. Without proper cleaning, etching, and preparation, coatings are destined for premature failure. We use SSPC SP1 solvent cleaning with 3500-5000 psi pressure washing and eco-friendly degreasers.
If the surface doesn't pass an adhesion test, we apply primer. We ensure a stronger bond by striping all seams and flashings with primer or fiberglass-based primer/sealer. Protrusions and gaps are sealed with seam seal tape or sealant.
Your roof will be coated and sealed with high-quality coating systems. We typically apply 1-2 coats depending on the warranty desired, creating a seamless, durable, and waterproof membrane.

What Our Clients Say
“Markley Precision Company was easy to work with and the quality of their work is second to none. I have used them on three separate projects and have been very pleased with the quality of work each time. No job seems to be too big or too small. I have used them to blast and paint a 30,000 gallon propane tank, and to blast and paint our vertical bulk storage vessels for nitrogen, oxygen, and argon. They've even done work for me on the Lake Erie Islands, as well, which presented logistical challenges, but MPC didn't miss a beat. I would recommend MPC 100 out of 100 times.”
Matt Drennen
“Very happy with the work completed so far with MPC. Last year, I had them paint 5 of our 30,000 gallon bullet tanks. The work was completed quickly and professionally. With a years worth of age on them now, they still look as good as new! I was so pleased with their work on the tanks, I hired them to complete an even larger, more complex project blasting and recoating a natural gas processing mechanical refrigeration unit. Even when some concerns came up, they quickly remediated the situation. Extremely happy with the work they've performed!”
Paul Teeters
