Aircraft Hangar Roofs
Your aircraft hangar roofing system represents a significant investment, serving as a durable structure that safeguards your most valuable possessions, including aircraft, parts, supplies, and maintenance equipment. Over time, the effects of Pennsylvania’s ever-changing weather conditions cause the roof to age and deteriorate. Regardless of the initial strength of the metal, modified bitumen, or other roofing systems, prolonged exposure to challenging seasonal weather will eventually lead to damage. Consequently, a complete roof replacement becomes inevitable when the roof reaches a state where it leaks beyond repair. The process of repairing an aircraft hangar roof is both time-consuming and expensive due to the necessity of fully removing the existing roof materials.

Types Of Aircraft Hangar Roofing
In the present day, a significant number of aircraft hangars employ metal roofing systems, either custom-built on-site or preassembled in a factory. Metal is commonly favored as the roofing material for aircraft hangars and maintenance facilities due to its exceptional strength, fire resistance, and long lifespan. Nevertheless, numerous older aircraft hangars, constructed many years ago, require repairs due to their advanced age. Furthermore, aircraft hangars can vary greatly in size, spanning from under 5,000 square feet to over 80,000 square feet. Consequently, roof repairs and replacements can incur substantial expenses.
Common Problems with Aircraft Hangar Roofing in Pennsylvania
In the differing seasonal climate of Pennsylvania, the large range in temperatures and weather events can lead to deterioration as a result of warping, corrosion, and rust. With the degradation of the roofing material, you will observe an increase in the occurrence of roof leaks. Such leaks can lead to water damage that may even extend to the roof deck, resulting in more significant structural problems. In some cases, a complete roof replacement becomes necessary, not to mention the potential harm to the valuable assets housed within the building. Contact us and schedule a roof inspection for your aircraft hangar or aviation facility if you notice any of the following signs:
- Roof leaks
- Corrosion or rust
- Damaged fasteners
- Loose seams
- Discoloration
Repairs and Restoration Prevents Roof Leaks and Rust
By utilizing the Conklin Roofing System, we have achieved remarkable success in assisting numerous satisfied clients in avoiding costly repairs and replacements. The Conklin Roofing System comprises highly resilient, white reflective, and waterproof elastomeric coatings, such as the Conklin MR System® for Metal Roofs, Benchmark®, PUMA® XL, Rapid Roof® III, and Rapid Roof® HV. These coatings offer immediate leak cessation, as well as the ability to rectify roof deficiencies and prevent rust, establishing an exceedingly durable, leak-free, and energy-efficient barrier. Moreover, the system safeguards the entire roofing structure, reinforcing seams and fasteners, thereby eliminating the need for frequent roof repairs or replacements. If you require aircraft hangar roof repair, the Conklin system is an excellent choice.
Prolong Your Existing Roofing System’s Useful Life
Conklin offers a range of white reflective elastomeric coatings that provide a more efficient and cost-effective solution for repairing, restoring, and safeguarding various types of roofing systems found in aviation buildings, including metal, modified bitumen, EPDM rubber, and others. These coatings create a highly reflective and rust-resistant waterproof barrier that has the ability to reflect up to 85% of UV radiation, rather than absorbing it as heat.
This not only slows down the aging process of the roof, but the insulation layer of the coating also shields aircraft hangars from the detrimental impact of thermal shock caused by the expansion and contraction of roofing materials during extreme temperature fluctuations. Furthermore, the elastomeric coatings significantly enhance the energy efficiency of the building, resulting in reduced utility costs. Additionally, these coatings can be reapplied multiple times, extending the lifespan of your existing hangar roof for many years, or even decades, to come.
