Metal Roofing Repair
Seam splits, corroded fixings or storm-damaged panels, metal roof repairs across Plymouth and Devon, matched to the original system.
Metal roofing is low-maintenance, but not maintenance-free. Standing seam panels can develop split seams where thermal movement clips have failed, box profile sheeting corrodes at fixing points over time, and storm damage can lift or dent panels on both systems.
Sherford Roofing repairs standing seam and box profile metal roofs across Plymouth and Devon, matching materials and fixing methods to the existing system so the repair blends in and performs the same way the original installation was designed to.
Our Process
Locate the Fault
We inspect the roof to find the specific panel, seam or fixing causing the leak or damage, not always where the symptom shows indoors.
Match the System
Repairs are carried out using materials and fixing methods matched to your existing roof, zinc, copper or steel, for a consistent finish.
Repair or Replace Panel
Damaged sections are repaired where possible or replaced where the panel is beyond repair, maintaining correct clip spacing for thermal movement.
Reseal & Test
Junctions and fixings are resealed and checked before completion.
Metal Roofing Repair FAQs

Yes, in most cases, an individual sheet can be unfixed and replaced without disturbing the surrounding roof, provided the replacement profile matches.
No, localised dents or lifted panels can usually be repaired or replaced individually. A full replacement is only needed where damage is widespread or the underlying structure has been affected.
