Installation Issues

Improper installation can lead to water infiltration, panel loosening or detachment, and even pose safety hazards. Solutions include ensuring proper installation of waterproof materials, checking and repairing all gaps and defects, and regular maintenance.

Leakage Issues

Leaks can be caused by poor installation, damage, or corrosion. Solutions include timely patching of leak points, replacing damaged panels or coatings, and reinforcing sealing and drainage systems.

Rust and Corrosion

Metal roofs may rust due to exposure to moist environments. Solutions include regular cleaning and painting protective layers, and using corrosion-resistant materials for roofing.

Noise Issues

Metal roofs can produce significant noise during strong winds or rain and snow. Solutions include installing soundproof materials below the roof, such as insulation boards or acoustic materials.

Thermal Expansion and Contraction

Temperature fluctuations can cause metal roofs to expand and contract, affecting structural stability. Solutions include considering the coefficient of thermal expansion during design, and using flexible materials to connect panels.

Missing or Loose Fasteners

Fasteners can loosen or be lost over time, leading to roof instability. Solutions include regular inspection of fasteners and timely replacement of damaged parts.

Insulation and Energy Efficiency Issues

Metal roofs may lack sufficient insulation, causing energy loss. Solutions include adding insulation layers, using energy-saving materials and designs.

Denting Issues

Metal roofs can dent due to impact or wear. Solutions include repairing dented areas and, if necessary, replacing damaged panels.

By adopting appropriate preventive measures and maintenance strategies, the issues with metal roofs can be minimized to maximize their service life.
