Maine Metal Buildings Inc.
Over time, many metal buildings begin to feel too hot in summer, too cold in winter, noisy, drafty, or expensive to operate.
That usually isn’t a building problem — it’s an energy efficiency problem.
At Maine Metal Buildings, we provide energy upgrade solutions designed specifically for steel building systems. Our upgrades improve comfort, reduce heat loss, control condensation, and lower long-term operating costs — without unnecessary disruption to your structure.
We focus on improvements that are practical, cost-effective, and built to perform in real-world conditions.
We help building owners, contractors, and facility managers upgrade existing buildings with solutions such as:
✔ Insulation Upgrades & Retrofits
Replace thin, failing, or outdated insulation with high-performance systems designed for metal structures. We install upgraded roof and wall insulation along with new vapor barriers — often without removing existing roofing or wall panels.
We also offer Simple Saver retrofit insulation systems. While there is an upfront investment, these systems significantly improve thermal performance and reduce energy costs over time.
✔ Condensation Control Systems
Prevent moisture buildup, interior drips, corrosion, and humidity issues that can damage insulation, framing, and stored materials.
✔ Radiant Barriers & Vapor Protection
Reflect heat, stabilize interior temperatures, and protect interior finishes with properly installed radiant and vapor control layers.
✔ Roof & Wall Upgrade Packages
Add energy performance improvements during reroofing or renovation projects to improve efficiency and extend the building’s lifespan.
✔ Ventilation Improvements
Introduce airflow strategies that support healthier indoor environments, reduce trapped moisture, and balance internal temperatures.
Every upgrade is designed around your building’s structure, climate conditions, and intended use — not simply added as an afterthought.
The right upgrades can dramatically improve:
Interior comfort
Noise levels
Moisture control
Utility costs
Building longevity
Equipment protection
Employee and tenant satisfaction
And unlike short-term fixes, properly installed systems deliver value year after year. Energy upgrades in metal buildings require careful planning — especially when integrating with existing structure and finishes.
Our priorities include:
Reviewing existing insulation and building envelope
Identifying moisture and condensation concerns
Evaluating structural tie-in points
Selecting products designed for metal buildings
Ensuring clean, durable installation
We coordinate closely with contractors and owners to make sure upgrades solve problems — not create new ones.
Whether you’re modernizing an older building or upgrading a newer one, we’re here to help recommend the right solutions.

Yes. Proper insulation, condensation control, and envelope upgrades can significantly improve interior comfort, reduce temperature swings, control moisture, and lower long-term operating costs.
In many cases, insulation can be upgraded or retrofitted without removing the entire system. We evaluate the condition, recommend the best approach, and only replace what actually needs to be replaced.
Yes — many upgrades are designed specifically to manage moisture and prevent “sweating,” drips, and corrosion inside steel buildings when installed correctly.
We supply materials for energy upgrades and offer installation in select regions. If we can’t install for your location, we can help connect you with qualified partners.
Photos of the building interior, approximate dimensions, location, and a description of the problem are helpful. Original building drawings (if available) make planning even easier.
