Steel Building Warranty


50-Year Rust Perforation Warranty
Every Metal Pro steel building kit comes with a 50-year rust perforation warranty on all Galvalume Plus™ steel panels and structural components. Your building is built to resist rust and maintain its structural integrity for decades as long as it is properly installed and maintained.
What’s Covered
- Rust Perforation: Any rust that causes perforation of steel panels or structural members is covered for 50 years from the date of delivery.
- Manufacturing Defects: All materials are covered against manufacturing defects that exist at the time of delivery.
- Pre-Engineered Components: The warranty applies to all pre-engineered steel components supplied directly by Metal Pro Buildings.
- Paint Finish: Galvalume Plus™ panels include a manufacturer’s paint warranty of 40–50 years, depending on the panel type.
- Other Components (12 Months): Fasteners, trim, hardware, and all other supplied components are covered for 12 months against manufacturer defects.
What’s Not Covered
- Third-party items not manufactured by Metal Pro Buildings, including doors, windows, and insulation.
- Improper storage, handling, or installation.
- Damage caused by site conditions such as poor drainage, inadequate foundations, or standing water.
- Unauthorized modifications or field alterations, including welding or unapproved openings.
- Exposure to corrosive chemicals, saltwater or marine environments, fertilizers, or treated lumber beyond normal conditions.
- Condensation, mold, cosmetic discoloration, chalking, or fading that does not cause perforation.
- Acts of nature exceeding the building’s engineered design loads, including storms, flooding, and earthquakes.
