Giromax Roofcoat System

High-Performance Metal Roof Refurbishment Coating

Giromax Roofcoat is a BBA-approved liquid-applied coating designed to restore, waterproof and protect commercial metal roofs. Used extensively across industrial, retail and logistics buildings, Roofcoat provides long-term corrosion resistance, UV stability and weatherproofing without the need for roof replacement.

Total Cladding & Roofing is approved to install the full Giromax Roofcoat system, offering surveys, specifications and manufacturer-backed installation across the UK.

What Is Giromax Roofcoat?

Giromax Roofcoat is an advanced metal roof refurbishment system that forms a seamless, flexible membrane over profiled steel roof sheets. It is engineered to halt corrosion, seal surfaces and extend the life of ageing metal roofs subjected to harsh environmental conditions.

Key performance characteristics include:

• UV and colour stability

• Long-term corrosion protection

• Strong substrate adhesion

• Flexibility for roof movement

• Moisture-tolerant application

When Is Roofcoat Used?

Roofcoat is commonly specified for:

• Weathered metal roofs with failing original coatings

• Roofs showing surface corrosion or colour fading

• Buildings suffering leaks from laps, fixings or degraded areas

• Commercial and industrial roofs requiring long-term refurbishment

• Situations where full roof replacement is impractical or too costly

It is frequently installed alongside Giromax Edgecoat to treat cut-edge corrosion before full coating.

Benefits of the Giromax Roofcoat System

Roofcoat provides multiple long-term advantages:

• Extends metal roof life by 15–25+ years

• Restores weatherproofing and surface protection

• Stops corrosion progression

• Enhances building appearance

• Helps prevent leaks through laps and fixings

• Minimal disruption during installation

• Lower cost than strip-and-resheet alternatives

Suitable Roof Types

Giromax Roofcoat is ideal for:

• Trapezoidal and corrugated metal sheet roofs

• Coated or painted metal substrates

• Commercial, industrial and retail properties

• Logistics centres, warehouses and supermarkets

A detailed survey confirms suitability and required preparation.

System Longevity

Giromax Roofcoat typically delivers a 15–25 year service life depending on substrate condition, exposure and correct installation. Its BBA certification supports long-term performance.

How Roofcoat Prevents Leaks and Corrosion

Roofcoat forms a continuous, fully bonded membrane that:

• Seals joints, laps and fixings

• Encapsulates weathered sheet surfaces

• Resists UV, moisture and thermal movement

• Prevents further surface breakdown

Combined with Edgecoat, it addresses both sheet surfaces and vulnerable edges.

Installation Process

Survey: Condition assessment, testing and photographic documentation.
Preparation: Cleaning, corrosion treatment, repairs and cut-edge sealing.
Application: Roofcoat applied to manufacturer-required film thickness.
Completion: Final inspection and issuing of manufacturer-backed warranty.
