Reroofing / Building Renovations
Merit Builders specializes in the reroofing and renovation of aging metal structures. So accomplished is the firm that in 2007, it was commissioned to fully restore Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company's historic airship hangar in Akron, Ohio, where the manufacturing icon's famous blimp is housed.
A deteriorating metal roof or building can compromise the integrity and productivity of day-to-day business operations. Renovation of your roof and walls will safeguard your employees and products, and improve your building's energy efficiency, overall value, and aesthetic presentation. Furthermore, the incorporation of solar technologies into a roof renovation can generate the energy required to fully heat a building - abandoning your dependency on traditional fossil fuels or electricity.

Merit Builders' typical renovation approach is to reroof over an existing roof. This construction technique immediately improves the building's insulation factor. It also all but eliminates any disruption of your business operation. A wide variety of metal roof and wall products can be used for renovations — with the ultimate selection of product based on the specific facility needs and project requirements.
Butler's pre-fabricated MR-24® panel has long set the industry standard for structural standing-seam roofing, and is typically used for unseen, low-sloping roofs. Engineered to be economical to install and maintain, the MR-24® is specifically designed to perform under demanding weather conditions and to accommodate roof movement. Our employees install over one million square feet of MR-24® panels each year.
Merit Builders' VSM Roll Formed Roof System provides a customized roofing solution that is actually fabricated at the building site. VSM is especially appropriate for roofs that are intended to be seen and be architecturally pleasing, as well as those that are complex in design. Merit Builders uses Schlebach's Quadro Plus Rollformer to produce variable width panels up to 18 inches wide and 100+ feet long without the need for panel laps. VSM panels can be used in many versatile applications.
