One year old metal roof has a burnished hole the size of a pencil eraser and it had been plugged with silicone caulk. Found it while in attic recently. Contractor disavows any knowledge or responsibility. What is best fix I can perform myself.	Guest User 9/29/2003	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/2285/find/
From an aesthetics and practical standpoint, the best do-it-yourself repair probably is with a quality sealant.	Todd Miller Isaiah Industries, Inc. 9/29/2003	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/2286/find/
I have two nail-sized holes in my metal roof. Which sealant would you recommend here? A silicone caulk? Will it bind to the metal sufficiently and stretch/shrink enough? Thanks, -Luke	Guest User 11/19/2007	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/2287/find/
I would use a butyl rubber sealant.	Todd Miller Isaiah Industries, Inc. 11/20/2007	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/2288/find/
