Salt River Electric, a Bardstown-based co-op on East Kentucky Power's owner-member list, serves Bullitt County. For metal shops and warehouses, the inspector wants to know whether panels come off or a new roof goes over the old one.

Roof Conditions on Lebanon Junction Shops and Warehouses
Metal and flat roofs here wear in a few repeat places, and each one points to a repair, a recover, or new panels.
Stretched Screw Holes
- You See
- Screws spinning in their holes and washers no longer sealing.
- What It Means
- Oversized screws with new washers, or stitch screws into firm steel, restore the seal.
Ponding on a Warehouse Flat Section
- You See
- Water standing on the low-slope part of a warehouse between drains.
- What It Means

- What It Means
- The mast gets its own flashing boot, and Salt River Electric gets a call if the mast leans near the work.

Commercial Roofing Options for Lebanon Junction
Each choice starts with the same question: how solid is the old steel?
Panels Off and New Metal
Rusted-through runs come off to the purlins, and new standing seam or R-panel goes on with fresh trim.
New Roof Over the Old Panels
Whether a metal shop roof goes over or gets torn off depends on the old steel. Solid panels and a sound structure can carry a new roof on top.
Warehouse Flat Section Rebuild
Tapered insulation and new membrane on the low-slope part, with sumps at the drains and scuppers raised to match.
Screw and Lap Tune-Up
Stretched holes, split washers, and rusted laps get fixed on panels that are still solid.
Panels Rusting Through at the Laps?
Tell us the building size and how far the rust runs. We will check the steel and say whether the roof goes over or comes off.
- Steel Checked Run by Run
- Bullitt County Scope Ready

Commercial Roofing Steps for a Lebanon Junction Building
The Bullitt County roof permit and the utility call fit into the same order every job here follows.
Inspect Your Roof
We walk each panel run, test screws, check laps for rust through, and find the service mast and meter before any plan is set.
Check With City and County
City hall comes first, then the Bullitt County inspector gets the scope: panels off or roof over, plus edge metal and gutter changes.
Confirm the Utility
Salt River Electric is confirmed on the bill, and called if the mast or meter sits near the work edge.
Install Panels or Membrane
New panels, trim, and gutters go on, or the flat section gets tapered insulation and membrane, then a final walk with you.

Is your building elsewhere in our area? We take roofing work in each town below; for anywhere else, call us or send us a message.
| Town | County | What We See On Roofs There |
|---|---|---|
| Radcliff Home Base | Hardin | Reroof permits start with the City of Radcliff, which points commercial work to the shared Hardin County inspector. |
| Vine Grove | Hardin | Roof drains tied into storm piping add a plumbing review, while open eave gutters stay with the roofing scope. |
| Brandenburg | Meade | River fog keeps decks damp into the morning, so adhered seams wait until the surface is dry. |
| Muldraugh | Meade | A Meade County city beside the Hardin line, where crane and dumpster spots on streets go through city hall. |
| Irvington | Breckinridge | Rooftop unit resets bring electrical review through the county or city office alongside the roof permit. |
| Hardinsburg | Breckinridge | Service drops land at the eave on metal shops and farm buildings, right where new trim and gutters go. |
| Ekron | Meade | The KZZ64 weather radio transmitter sits here, and its alerts set how much deck a crew opens in a day. |
| West Point | Hardin | Permit questions start at West Point city hall before anything goes to Hardin County. |
| Rineyville | Hardin | Roof permits go straight to the Hardin County local building inspector. |
| Payneville | Meade | The Meade County inspector reviews the scope, so tear-off depth and edge metal changes go in the first call. |
| Guston | Meade | Another Meade County address, where the county office also covers new drains and scupper changes. |
| McDaniels | Breckinridge | The Breckinridge County inspector takes roof permits, the same office that covers Hardinsburg and Irvington. |
Lebanon Junction Roof Questions
Answers on permits, the utility, roof-overs, ponding, and screw repairs.
Permits and Utility
Who handles commercial roof permits in Lebanon Junction, and which utility serves it?
Owners check with city hall, then with the Bullitt County local building inspector on the state's Bullitt County sheet, a different office from Radcliff and the Hardin, Meade, and Breckinridge towns. Salt River Electric, a Bardstown-based co-op, serves Bullitt County. Confirm the provider on the bill before work near a service mast or meter.
What should I tell Salt River Electric before roof work?
Where the service mast and meter sit, and whether trim, edge metal, or mast flashing will be replaced near them. If the mast leans or the weatherhead sits close to the work edge, ask whether the line needs covering before crews start.
Metal Roofs
Can a new metal roof go over the old panels?
Where the old steel is solid and the structure carries the added load, yes. Tell the inspector whether panels come off or a new roof goes over the old one, and whether edge metal or gutters change. Rust through on many runs or a weak structure points to taking the panels off.
How are stretched screw holes repaired?
Stretched holes get oversized screws with new washers, or stitch screws into firm steel beside them. Rust at the laps gets cleaned and reset with fresh butyl tape. Long runs get checked first at the eave and ridge ends, where movement is greatest.
Flat Sections
What fixes ponding on a warehouse flat section?
Slope. Tapered insulation under a new membrane carries water to the drains, with sumps at each bowl. Where ponding has gone on for years, retrofit framing can set sloped metal over the flat section instead, with the framing designed by a structural engineer.
