1.00Is it safe to walk on a metal roof of a metal building?
Q.I'm looking to buy a metal warehouse building. The walls and roof are dirty and need cleaning. While the structure is plenty sound, I'm wondering how safe it is to walk on the roof. I was wondering if all metal roofs are built strong enough to support a person walking on it.
For other types of roofs in colder climates, building codes specify a load capacity to hold up under snow. Here in Houston, such support does not apply. As the roof itself is very light, it doesn't need to be very strong to shed off rain.
A.I've done a lot of work on metal roofs, and i have only came across 1 that was too thin to walk on. it wasn't that it wouldn't support me either, (230lbs) it just bent, and dented when i walked on it. this just simply made it look ugly... feel a corner or edge if you can find one. if you can bend it easily with your fingers, it's too thin, but if it's quite rigid, and you can't bend it without plyers, it should hold up to your boots!
not sure where you are, but where i am, we are starting to get frost. take EXTRA care on those metal roofs during this coming winter season!

A.Metal is the way to go. I put white metal on my roof and I love it. The attic is at least 30 degrees cooler in the summer time and it should last a very long time.

Q.We're thinking of replacing our shingle roof with a metal one.

Thanks for your help!
A.$300+ per square [100 square feet] for asphalt shingles. Metal roofs have a much broader price range depending on quality and style.
Contact your local Roofing union or builders association, and make sure they are both licensed and insured. Ask for a copy of their current coverage, and refuse work to them until it is provided.

I've been told the area is approx. 32 squares and that there is around 400 linear feet at the boundary with the mansard shingle roof.
