WHY CHOOSE A COMMERCIAL ROOF COATING?
When your existing roof is still structurally suitable for restoration, a roof coating can provide several advantages over immediately moving forward with a complete roof replacement.
Extend the Life of Your Roof: A professional coating system can help protect an aging roof from continued exposure and extend the useful life of the existing roofing system.
Stop Vulnerable Leak Points: Seams, fasteners, penetrations, flashing, and other common problem areas can be addressed before the roof is coated to help create a more watertight surface.
Reduce Heat From the Sun: Reflective commercial roof coatings can help reduce the amount of solar heat absorbed by the roof surface, which may help improve building efficiency and indoor comfort.
Minimize Business Disruption: Roof restoration generally involves less demolition and removal than a complete tear-off, allowing many businesses to continue normal operations while work is completed.
Avoid Premature Replacement: If your roof is a good candidate for restoration, coating it may allow you to postpone the significantly larger investment associated with a complete commercial roof replacement.
Protect Against Gulf Coast Weather: Commercial roofs in Southern Alabama face intense UV exposure, heat, humidity, heavy rainfall, and severe storms. A quality coating system adds another layer of protection between your roof and the elements.
OUR COMMERCIAL ROOF COATING PROCESS
Commercial Roof Restoration Made Simple.
1.
Schedule Your Roof Inspection
We begin by inspecting the existing commercial roof to evaluate its condition and determine whether it is suitable for restoration.
2.
Identify Problem Areas
Our team looks closely at seams, penetrations, fasteners, flashing, drainage areas, previous repairs, and other potential leak points.
3.
Clean & Prepare the Roof
Proper preparation is critical. The roof surface is cleaned and prepared so repairs and coating materials can properly adhere to the existing roofing system.
4.
Repair & Seal Vulnerable Areas
Before the full coating is applied, necessary repairs are completed and vulnerable seams, fasteners, penetrations, and other problem areas are addressed.
5.
Apply Roof Coating System
The selected coating is professionally applied across the prepared roofing surface to create a continuous protective layer.
6.
Complete Final Inspection
Once installation is complete, our team performs a final quality check to make sure the roof coating system has been properly applied.
Coating solutions for multiple roofing types
Roof coatings can be used to restore several types of existing commercial roofing systems depending on their age, condition, substrate, and overall structural integrity.
Metal Roofing: Commercial metal roofs can develop leaks around fasteners, seams, flashing, and penetrations over time. A restoration coating system can seal vulnerable areas and encapsulate the roof with a protective, reflective surface.
Modified Bitumen Roofing: Constant exposure to UV rays and Alabama heat can gradually deteriorate modified bitumen roofing. After necessary preparation and repairs, a compatible coating system can help seal and protect the existing membrane.
TPO Roofing: Aging TPO roofs may experience deterioration or problems around seams and penetrations. Depending on the condition of the membrane, a coating system may provide an additional layer of protection and extend its usable life.
EPDM Roofing: EPDM roofing is exposed to constant expansion, contraction, sunlight, moisture, and temperature changes. For qualifying roofs, a compatible restoration coating can help protect the existing membrane and improve its weather resistance.
SIGNS YOUR COMMERCIAL ROOF MAY BE READY FOR A COATING
Commercial roofing problems often begin gradually. If you notice any of the following, schedule an inspection to determine whether restoration may be possible:
Recurring Roof Leaks
Rust or Surface Corrosion
Open Seams or Loose Fasteners
Aging or Weathered Roofing
Rising Cooling Costs
Your Roof is Aging but Still Structurally Sound
ROOF RESTORATIONS FOR BUILDINGS OF ALL SIZES
Commercial roof coatings can provide an effective restoration option for many types of properties, including:
Warehouses
Retail Buildings
Office Buildings
Manufacturing Facilities
Churches
Schools
Restaurants
Shopping Centers
Storage Facilities
Apartment and Multifamily Properties
Agricultural Buildings
Industrial Facilities
Municipal Buildings
Other Commercial Properties
Every building is different, which is why the first step is always evaluating the existing roofing system.
GOT QUESTIONS? WE HAVE ANSWERS!
Get quick answers about commercial roof restoration, coating systems, maintenance, and the factors that determine whether your roof is a good candidate.
How does a commercial roof coating work?
A commercial roof coating is applied over a properly prepared existing roofing system to create a continuous protective surface. Before coating, problem areas such as seams, penetrations, fasteners, flashing, and minor damage are addressed as needed.
Can a roof coating stop leaks?
Roof coating systems can help address many common leak points when the roof is properly inspected, repaired, prepared, and coated. However, coating should not simply be applied over unresolved structural damage or trapped moisture.
Is roof coating cheaper than replacing a commercial roof?
In many situations, restoring an eligible commercial roof can cost less than removing and replacing the entire existing roofing system. The actual cost depends on roof size, condition, preparation requirements, coating system, and repairs needed.
How do I know if my commercial roof can be coated?
The roof should be professionally inspected first. Its condition, moisture levels, underlying substrate, drainage, existing roofing material, and structural integrity all play a role in determining whether restoration is appropriate.
How long does a commercial roof coating last?
The service life depends on the coating system, installation, existing roofing substrate, local conditions, maintenance, and coating thickness. Our team can discuss the expected performance of the system recommended for your particular roof.
Do I need to close my business while the roof is being coated?
One advantage of restoration is that it generally requires less demolition than a full roof replacement. Many coating projects can be completed with minimal interruption to normal business operations, although project conditions vary.
Will a reflective roof coating help keep my building cooler?
Reflective coatings are designed to reflect more solar energy than many traditional roofing surfaces. This can reduce roof surface temperatures and may help reduce heat transfer into the building.
