A roof coating is a monolithic, fully adhered, fluid applied roofing membrane. Many roof coatings are elastomeric, that is, they have elastic properties that allow them to stretch and return to their original shape without damage.

Typical roof coating dry film thickness vary from paint film thickness (plus or minus 0.075 mm (3 dry mils) to more than 1 mm (40 dry mils). This means a roof coating actually becomes the top layer of a composite roof membrane and underlying system. As such, the roof coating is the topmost layer of protection for the membrane, receiving the impact of sunlight (both infrared and ultraviolet (UV)), rain, hail and physical damage.

Roof Coatings should not be confused with deck coatings. Deck coatings are traffic bearing - designed for waterproofing areas where pedestrian (and in some cases vehicular) traffic is expected. Roof coatings will only waterproof the substrates but will not withstand any kind of on going use by people or vehicles (such as walkways, patios, sundecks, restaurants, etc.).

When the original roof is removed labor and materials make commercial roof replacement an expensive project. On the other hand, commercial roof restoration is much more affordable. Not only will the commercial roof restoration process save you time and money, it will also add more life to your existing roof. Plus you get the satisfaction of being more sustainable and not adding more materials to your local landfill. But the truly surprising thing about roof restoration is the tax incentive benefit, as it’s considered a maintenance expense rather than a capital expense. 

Yes! Commercial coatings can be stripped and reapplied once your old roof coating has seen it’s best years, you can restore your roof again! This results in a new roof surface that will be protective and re-insulated for years to come. Sometimes, stripping is not necessary, call us for a free estimate and we will come take a look for you.

The fact is that commercial roof restoration is usually half the cost of a complete roof replacement. This is why we recommend you get an estimate for roof restoration so you can compare. Also, businesses can go on as usual with roof restoration; with roof replacement, the full tear off typically requires the business to close and tenants to vacate. You avoid this interruption and save a significant amount of time with the roof restoration option. Beyond that, you get the built-in energy-saving coating on the top of your roof to save you money month after month.

Many types of materials are suitable for roof restoration, including: acrylic, butyl, silicone, and urethane. Metal, built-in, modified bitumen, PVC, TPO, EPDM, concrete, and spray polyurethane foam roofs can work with many of the solutions used for roof restoration. 

Roof restoration is 2-3X faster than the time it would take to replace your roof. As if that wasn’t impressive enough, you save the time roof replacement workers would have to install waterproofing to protect your building for every day they do the replacement. You also skip the need for heavy roofing equipment to lift, tear-off, and rebuild.

The roof restoration system is the absolute best way to seal against and prevent roof leaks. The system has been tested and proven in the field over the years to withstand some of the most serious storms mother nature throws our way.

Just as wearing white or light-colored clothes helps you stay cooler on a sunny day, a reflective roof restoration keeps your building cooler and lowers the load on the air conditioning unit, reducing cooling costs. Studies have shown that a reflective roof can reduce a building’s energy use by as much as 20-30%, which results in major savings on your energy bill every month.

  No, you do not need to close your business with roof restoration! Unlike traditional roof replacement, we spray the roof restoration on top of your existing flat roof. This typically leads to big savings in labor costs and disposal fees. Tearing off your roof will require you to stop doing business, but with our roof restoration program we just need to go on your roof and spray away.

 Yes! You can deduct 100% of your roof restoration in Year 1 under IRS Section 179. This is an incredible tax advantage you must look into as a commercial property owner or facility manager
