ROOF LINES – WAREHOUSE & YARD SIGNAGE

 

Project Overview:
Roof Lines, a roofing company, wanted their logo painted onto their warehouse and yard to create a strong, visible brand presence. The challenge was that the sign was being applied to corrugated metal siding, which required extra care to ensure clean, sharp lines.

Process & Techniques:

  • Vinyl stencil was carefully applied, ensuring it adhered smoothly over the ridges of the corrugated surface.
  • Scaffolding was provided by the client, given their expertise in roofing, making it safer and more efficient for us to complete the work.
  • The painting was scheduled for evening hours in the summer to avoid extreme heat, which can cause stencils to stick too much and leave residue.
  • Since there was no base color to work with, we had to apply the paint with precision and control, avoiding excess bleeding that could compromise the crisp stencil edges.
  • Multiple coats were applied to achieve a strong, vibrant finish that would stand out against the dark siding.

Challenges & Solutions:

  • Working on corrugated metal required careful application of the stencil to prevent gaps or distortion in the lettering.
  • Avoiding stencil residue meant choosing the right time of day and ensuring the surface was properly prepped before painting.
  • Limited ability to touch up errors meant working with extreme precision to maintain the integrity of the logo.

The final result was a bold, professional logo that enhanced the company’s visibility while maintaining a clean, high-quality finish. The project was completed efficiently in the evening with a small team, leveraging the company’s scaffolding for safe and effective execution.
