What is a metal roof ?

Why do metal roofs leak in heavy rain?

Metal roofs are designed to withstand extreme weather conditions, but that does not mean they are immune to heavy rain. If the roofing system is not properly installed, it can cause leaks and fail prematurely. Heavy rain can cause small pinhole leaks in the metal roofing system. These leaks may become larger due to the weight of the water and increase the risk of collapse. If the metal roofing system is found to be faulty, it can lead to major problems like water damage to the house, and structural damage to the roof. You can prevent metal roof leaks in heavy rain with Hin Group’s silicone coating. This coating is available in different colours and designs and can breathe new life into your old and rusty metal roof.

Leaking roofs are not a high-visibility issue, so you may not notice any damage until water causes extensive damage to your home. Some signs that your metal roof is leaking in heavy rain include:

- Water stains on the ceiling - If water stains are visible, then it is more than likely that your roof is leaking. The water stains on the ceiling are usually caused by condensation from the roof.

- Cracks in the walls - As the water hits the walls, it creates pressure and cracks in the form of fissures, dings, and splits. This usually happens on exterior walls with the metal roof.
