A well-maintained roof is essential for protecting your home from the elements, and for metal and tile roofs, proper sealing can make a significant difference in durability and weather resistance. Sealing helps prevent water intrusion, reduces wear from UV exposure and enhances the long-term performance of your roof.
If it has been years since your tile or metal roof was inspected or sealed, now may be the ideal time to call Perkins Roofing. We can inspect your roof for wear and damage and let you know whether it would benefit from sealing.
The Woodlands weather regularly features heavy rains, high humidity and serious storms. Without proper sealing, metal and tile roofs can develop weak points where moisture seeps in, leading to costly water damage. A high-quality sealant creates a waterproof barrier, ensuring your roof remains resistant to leaks in all weather conditions.
The Woodlands and the greater Houston area experience intense sun and heat for much of the year. UV rays can cause oxidation and fading of metal roofing materials, especially metal roofing that hasn’t been sealed in five or more years. Sealing your roof with a protective layer can reflect UV rays and minimize heat absorption, reducing wear and maximizing the longevity of your metal roofing.
Sealing provides an extra layer of protection against hail, debris and other physical impacts that can weaken your roof. For tile roofs, sealants help prevent cracking and erosion, while metal roof coatings protect against dents and surface damage.
A well-sealed metal roof can improve your home’s energy efficiency by reflecting heat and reducing the workload on your cooling system during hot Texas summers. Tile roofs can also experience some insulation benefits from sealing, as it helps prevent heat absorption that could raise indoor temperatures.
One of the key benefits of metal and tile roofing is their exceptional longevity. Both can potentially last 50 or more years when properly cared for. However, these materials do require more preventative maintenance than asphalt shingle roofing to ensure they last for as long as possible.
Applying a sealant to a metal or tile roof can significantly extend its lifespan by reducing wear from weather exposure, moisture and temperature fluctuations. This proactive maintenance step helps homeowners avoid costly repairs and premature replacements.
Metal roofs are known for their durability, but they do require sealing more frequently than tile roofing. It’s often ideal to have a protective sealant professionally applied every three to five years to:
Clay and concrete tile roofs are incredibly long-lasting, and sealant is typically required less frequently than on metal roofing. Tile roofs should still be inspected relatively frequently, especially after storms, but may only need sealing every 15 years to:
The ideal sealing frequency can vary based on manufacturer recommendations, weather conditions and other factors. You should talk with an experienced roofer in The Woodlands to determine the best sealing frequency for your roof.
If you know it’s been five or more years since your roof has been sealed or you’ve observed some warning signs, like roof discoloration, obvious damage or leaks, you should call Perkins Roofing for assistance.
