Metal Roof Restoration, Roof Coatings & Leak Prevention for Wichita Commercial Buildings
Commercial Roof Coating & Restoration Contractors in Wichita, KS
Wichita is known as the Air Capital of the World, and its aircraft plants, hangars and supplier facilities sit under some of the largest commercial roofs in the region, many of them metal. Those roofs, along with the flat roofs on warehouses, offices, hospitals and schools across the city, face hail that dents panels and bruises membranes, prairie wind that works fasteners and seams loose, summer heat that drives constant expansion, and winter snow and ice. Loose screws, rusted laps and split seams can leak into a huge building long before anyone finds the source.
Many of these roofs can be restored instead of replaced. Presto Restoration has more than 25 years of experience restoring commercial roofs with high-performance coatings. We tighten or replace fasteners, seal seams and laps, treat rust, repair hail damage and seal the roof with a seamless coating, adding years of service for far less than re-roofing a plant or warehouse.
OUR COMMERCIAL ROOF COATING SERVICES IN WICHITA
These are the roof types we restore most often on Wichita’s commercial, aviation and industrial buildings.
Silicone holds up to hail, summer sun and winter cold, and does not break down where water collects. We apply it as one seamless layer at the warrantied thickness after repairs, building it thicker where hail resistance matters most.
TPO, PVC and EPDM roofs bruise under hail and lose seam strength in the wind. We clean and prime the membrane, reinforce seams, edges and flashings and finish with a coating matched to the sheet.
Spray foam roofs insulate well against Wichita’s summer heat and winter cold, but hail can puncture the protective top coat and let water into the foam. We cut out and replace damaged foam and recoat with a UV-stable system thick enough to stand up to the next storm.
Built-up and modified bitumen roofs on older Wichita buildings crack in the cold, blister in the heat and take hail damage. We repair those defects, rebuild flashings and finish with a coating made for asphalt.
A coating only makes sense on a roof that is still mostly dry. After a hail season we always test for moisture and take cores, and if insulation is wet across the roof, we will tell you replacement is the better choice.

Wichita Commercial Roof Coating FAQs
How does the cost of a roof coating compare to a roof replacement?
On large plant and warehouse roofs especially, a coating restoration usually costs a fraction of a tear-off, because the existing roof stays in place and operations continue.
Can a metal roof be restored instead of replaced?
Usually, yes. Replacing or sealing fasteners, treating rust and sealing every lap, then coating the whole roof, stops most leaks and adds years of life.
Which commercial roofs are good candidates for coating?
Most metal and low-slope roofs, including TPO, PVC, EPDM, modified bitumen, built-up and foam, as long as the roof is mostly dry and sound.
When should a Wichita commercial roof be coated?
Late spring after the worst storms and early fall are best, avoiding the hottest summer afternoons and freezing weather.
Can a large hangar or plant roof be done in stages?
Yes. We restore large roofs section by section around production schedules, which also spreads out the cost.
Do tenants need to leave during a roof coating project?
No. The work stays on the roof, and we protect air intakes and plan around operations.
