My stepson has a mobile home, ridged metal roof, and metal roof extension for porch, about 1200 square feet of roof. We recently repainted the house and the trim, but the roof needs to be repainted also, not a project I am interested in.

So I am looking for advice on suitable painters, paint, approximate cost, and any other items I should look out for. I was a Lowe's, and 5 gallons of paint ranged from $69 to $255, warranty from 7 years to 50 years, and reviews all over the place. Also, all appeared to be roller application or professional high pressure spray equipment.

I did call one well known painter he said around $1000, sounded reasonable, but we did not get into details. Roof will be painted white, no tinting, but would like at least a 15 year warranty.

Thanks in advance, and feel free to send a private message if you do not want your reply on the public forum.
