Salt air eats zinc: a roof built for the coast lasts much longer

Near the ocean, rust works faster: fasteners, overlaps and gutters deteriorate in a few years. We connect you with roofers who know the materials and fasteners that stand up to salt.

If you own a rental or a second home near Manuel Antonio, you may already have seen rust streaks on a roof that's only four or five years old. It isn't always bad workmanship; it's salt air, which attacks standard screws, poorly sealed overlaps and cheap galvanized gutters. By the time the roof leaks mid-rainy-season, the damage has reached the ceiling and the wood, often while you're not there to see it. The roofers we connect you with work on the coast and know which sheets, fasteners and sealants hold up, so you're not repeating the job in five years.

What's included

  • Roof, gutter and framing inspection
  • Zinc sheet replacement (painted or galvanized)
  • Leak repair and fastener replacement
  • Gutters and downspouts
  • Ceiling and thermal insulation if needed
  • Removal of old material

Frequently asked questions

Why does my roof rust so fast near the ocean?

Salt air speeds up corrosion, especially at fasteners and overlaps. Using the right materials greatly extends roof life.

Can you repair only the rusted parts?

If the damage is localized, yes. If rust is widespread, the roofer will recommend replacement.

Do you work in rainy season?

Yes, especially urgent repairs. Full replacements are scheduled on dry days.
