Sealants act as an extra layer of protection on metal roofs, keeping water from seeping into joints, ridges, and penetrations. Over time, even small cracks in sealant can become entry points for rain, leading to leaks and damage inside your home.
Common areas that need sealant include around chimneys, skylights, valleys, and where sheets overlap. UV exposure, heavy rain, and temperature changes can cause sealant to crack or shrink, so regular checks are essential.
When sealant fails, water can reach timber, insulation, and ceilings. This often shows up as damp patches or mould growth, which can be expensive to repair if left too long. Reapplying sealant or replacing old material restores protection and keeps your roof watertight.
Regular maintenance with sealants also slows down rust formation on metal roofs. By preventing water from sitting on the surface or creeping under sheets, the roof lasts longer and requires fewer repairs.
