Challenge: Restore a large metal roof without disrupting daily retail operations

The thrift store needed a cost-effective solution to rehabilitate a 17,432 sq ft metal roof while staying open for shoppers and donors. Lake Worth, Texas weather and heat demanded a reflective, seamless coating that could resist UV exposure and help guard against leaks—without shutting down the store’s busy operations.

Solution: Clean, seal, and protect with a high-solids silicone system

The team implemented a Viking Silicone Sealed Roof System designed for metal roof restoration. This approach produced a monolithic, reflective surface with excellent adhesion and weather resistance—completed in phases to ensure the store remained fully operational throughout the project.

• Cleaned the entire 17,432 sq ft roof by thorough pressure washing to remove contaminants and promote coating adhesion.
• Applied Viking Silicone HB White LVOC, a high-solids elastomeric coating, across the full roof surface for a seamless, UV-stable, weather-resistant membrane.
• Detailed seams, fasteners, penetrations, and any localized vulnerabilities with Viking RB Emergency Sealer (White) for targeted leak protection.
• Sequenced work zones and safety pathways so application of sealant over the existing roof system did not interrupt daily business operations.
• Verified uniform coverage and finish, confirming adhesion, drainage, and consistent film build prior to final sign-off.

Result: Seamless protection, improved reflectivity, and uninterrupted business

The thrift store now has a resilient silicone-coated metal roof that enhances weather resistance and reflects heat, supporting occupant comfort and energy efficiency. Most importantly, the application over the existing roof system allowed the Lake Worth, Texas location to stay open without interruption, maintaining service to the community with renewed confidence in its roofing system.
