As a Speedway metal roof coating contractor, we coat shop, garage, and light industrial metal roofs, staging lifts and materials to fit tight lots.

Speedway metal roof coating on shops and garages often starts with one question: where does the lift go? We map lift spots, hose runs, and material drops before work, and keep driveways and bays open for your customers.
Shops with paint booths, compressors, or exhaust fans on the roof need those openings mapped before staging is set. Each opening is sealed and flashed first, and spraying is scheduled for days when the booth or fans can be shut down for a few hours.
Shop and garage roofs leak most around the things that pierce them.

Cracked skylight seals or curb flashing on the panel.
Stains around fan housings or paint booth vents.
Flashing collars pulled loose around vent stacks.
Puddles at overhead door headers after storms.
Eave trim and gutters sending water back under panels.
Rust spots on beams below the roof screws.
Corroded screws and washers across the panel field.
Damp streaks down the inside of a block wall.
Flashing pulled loose where a low roof meets a taller wall.
For shops and garages in Speedway, coating seals the roof while the bays stay open.
Customers keep pulling in while the roof is coated, because the lift and materials are staged where they block the least. Bays stay open, and work over each door is timed for slow hours.
Every skylight and curb gets new sealant and flashing reinforcement before the coat, which closes the openings shop roofs leak through most.
Exhaust stacks and roof vents get rebuilt collars that shed water, and the coating laps up onto each collar.
A white coating reflects sun that turns a shop interior hot in summer, which matters in bays where people work all day.
Shops and garages carry mostly pitched metal, with some flat additions and shingle fronts.
| System | Where It Fits | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Acrylic | Pitched shop and garage panels | Cure days chosen by forecast |
| Silicone | Low-slope additions and lean-tos | Recoats stay silicone |
| Spray foam | Shops needing insulation overhead | Overspray screens required |
| Shingle coating | Office fronts with shingle roofs | Shingles must lie flat |
| Coating over replaced panels | Garages with a few rusted-through sheets | New sheets primed to match |
Skylight and curb leaks are some of the first repairs made during coating prep. Call and tell us which opening leaks.
(317) 930-9376Call UsTight lots and many roof openings shape how the steps below are planned.
Skylights, vents, fans, and screw rows are checked, and the lot is measured for lift and staging spots. Interior stains are matched to the openings above so each leak has a named source.
Lift spots, hose runs, and material drops are set around bay doors and customer parking, and neighbors on shared lot lines get a heads-up before spraying days.
Skylight curbs, vent collars, and fan bases are cleaned and rebuilt with flashing and sealant, since these openings carry most of the leaks on shop roofs.
Washing, rust primer, and screw replacement prepare the open field of the roof, and laps get fabric where panel movement has opened them.
The coating goes on to measured thickness, screens come down, and the lot is cleared at the end of each day so the business opens normally.
Away from Speedway, we also coat commercial metal roofs in these towns.

Warehouses, plants, and downtown blocks across the city.
Warehouse and retail roofs coated around active docks.
Shop and farm building panels with exposed fasteners.
Occupied storefronts and offices coated while open.
East-side roofs checked for hail damage before coating.
Shops, garages, and light industrial buildings in Speedway are roofs we coat. Many have exposed fasteners, skylights, and vents that are sealed before coating, and staging is planned around tight lots and traffic.
Garages and single-bay shops get the same inspection and prep as large buildings. Smaller roofs still need every skylight, vent, and screw row handled, and we size the crew and lift to the lot.
Shop roofs price within our published range of about $2.50 to $4.00 per square foot. Skylight and vent count, rust depth, screw replacement, and lift access on a tight lot all move the final number set after inspection.
Booth exhausts are shut down while crews work near them, and the stack collars are cleaned and reflashed. Coating stays clear of hot surfaces, and we plan that window with your shop schedule.
Most skylights need new seals and curb flashing, which are part of prep. Panels that are cracked, yellowed through, or brittle are swapped for new ones before the roof around them is coated.
Lift spots are picked during the inspection, usually at a side or rear wall away from bay doors. Where space is very tight, smaller lifts or roof-access ladders with material hoists are used instead.
Screens go up along lot lines and next to parked cars, spraying stops when wind picks up, and acrylic is rolled instead of sprayed near close neighbors.
Customer parking near the building is coned off during spraying, screens go up along the roof edge above the lot, and rolling replaces spraying wherever cars must stay close. Lifts and material are staged where they block the fewest spaces, and the lot is cleared at the end of each day.
