Airplane Hangar Roof Repair

Your airplane hangar roofing system is a significant investment designed to be a sturdy structure to protect your most valuable assets, including aircraft, parts, supplies and maintenance equipment. As an airplane hangar roof ages, it becomes weathered after years of exposure to Florida’s challenging subtropical climate. The frequent heavy rains, gusty winds, and lengthy hot and humid weather will eventually take their toll on even the sturdiest metal, modified bitumen, or other roofing systems. It’s only a matter of time before it will need a complete roof replacement when the roof begins to leak beyond repair. Airplane hangar roof repair is time-consuming and costly because it usually requires the complete removal of existing roof materials.

Types of Aircraft Hangar Roofing

Today, many aircraft hangars are constructed with metal roofing systems that are either custom-built on-site or prefabricated in a factory. Metal is often the preferred roofing material for aircraft hangars and maintenance facilities, due to its extreme durability, fire resistance, and longevity. However, many aging aircraft hangars were built decades ago and need repair due to their age. In addition, aircraft hangars can vary significantly in size, ranging from under 5,000 square feet to more than 80,000 square feet. Roof repairs and replacements can be very costly.

Common Problems with Aviation Hangar Roofing in Florida

Most of the commercial and private airports in Southwest Florida are located near coastal waters. Our frequent rainy weather and salty air accelerate metal corrosion, including stainless steel standing seam, modified bitumen, and other aircraft hangar roofing systems. Studies have shown that salty air can travel 30 to 50 miles inland. It is one of the most common causes of airplane hangar roof leaks in Florida. As the roofing material deteriorates, you will notice more frequent roof leaks. The water damage can also extend to the roof deck, resulting in more severe structural issues. This may require a complete roof replacement, not to mention damage to the assets in the building. Contact us to schedule a roof inspection for your aircraft hangar or aviation facility if it displays any of the following:

• Roof leaks
• Corrosion or rust
• Damaged fasteners
• Loose seams
• Discoloration

Conklin’s highly durable, white reflective, and waterproof elastomeric coatings, including the Conklin MR System® for Metal Roofs, Benchmark®, PUMA® XL, Rapid Roof® III, and Rapid Roof® HV, immediately stops leaks. It also repairs roof deficiencies, and inhibits rust with an extremely durable, leak-free, and energy-efficient barrier. Plus, it protects the entire roofing system, strengthening seams and fasteners, eliminating the need for frequent roof repairs or roof replacement. If you’re looking for airplane hangar roof repair, the Conklin system is a great solution.

Prolongs Your Existing Roofing System’s Useful Life

Conklin’s line of white reflective elastomeric coatings is a more efficient and cost-effective method for repairing, restoring, and protecting metal, modified bitumen, EPDM rubber, and other aviation building roofing systems. The highly reflective rust-resistant waterproof barrier reflects up to 85% of UV radiation rather than absorbing it as heat. This not only slows down the roof’s aging process, but the coating’s layer of insulation protects aircraft hangars from the damaging effects of thermal shock that occurs when roofing materials expand and contract during extreme temperature swings. It also significantly increases the building’s energy efficiency reducing utility costs. Also, our elastomeric coatings can be reapplied multiple times, prolonging your existing hangar roof’s useful life for years or even decades to come.
