Service Provided: Rooftop Steel Infrastructure Painting (Commercial)

Nearby Local Landmarks: Adjacent to Fernhill Lake, Route 202 Corridor, Chester County Airport access, and Goshen Corporate Park

Commercial infrastructure requires specialized protective coatings to withstand severe weather exposure, rust, and industrial wear. Van Horn Painting recently completed a major rooftop structural coating project for a commercial facility located on North 5 Points Road in the Malvern / West Chester area of Chester County. Situated directly next to Fernhill Lake and just off the busy Route 202 commercial corridor near Goshen Corporate Park, this project demonstrates our ability to deliver durable, high-performance protective paint solutions for local businesses.

Extensive Surface Preparation & Rust Remediation

Rooftop structural steel and HVAC platforms are constantly exposed to moisture, UV rays, and extreme temperature fluctuations, leading to heavy rust scaling and coat failure over time. Before applying protective coatings, our team carried out rigorous industrial preparation protocols:

• Rust & Corrosion Removal: Mechanical wire brushing and localized grinding were performed to scrape away surface rust on the elevated steel I-beams, cross bracing, and support structures.
• Structural Cleaning: All surfaces were pressure washed and treated to remove atmospheric dust, oil, and debris, providing a bare, clean foundation for maximum paint adhesion.
• Precision Encapsulation: Nearby rooftop HVAC units, ductwork, and delicate roofing membrane surfaces were carefully masked off to prevent overspray and chemical exposure.

Industrial Structural Steel Coating & Finishing

Following the surface remediation, our technicians applied specialized industrial primer to neutralize remaining corrosion and protect against future rust formation.

To complete the job, we applied multiple coats of high-durability, weather-resistant structural enamel in a uniform slate gray. As seen in the project photos, the entire support frame, including the access stairs, safety handrails, platform walkways, and heavy structural I-beams, was completely refreshed. The result is a long-lasting barrier that seals the metal frame against moisture intrusion while giving the facility's rooftop a clean, professional aesthetic.
