When your roof needs restoration — not replacement
Not every aging roof needs to be torn off. If the membrane is structurally intact, the insulation is dry, and the deck is sound, a roof coating system can restore weatherproofing performance and extend service life by 10–15 years — at a fraction of replacement cost.
Roof coatings are not paint. They're engineered fluid-applied membranes that cure to form a seamless, reflective, waterproof barrier over your existing roof. Applied correctly, they restore UV protection, seal minor defects, and improve energy performance through solar reflectivity.
Is your roof a coating candidate?
Membrane Condition
The existing membrane must be largely intact — no widespread delamination, minimal blistering, and seams that are still adhered. Coatings work over stable substrates, not failed ones.
Insulation Integrity
Core samples confirm whether insulation is dry and performing. Saturated insulation means replacement, not coating. We test before recommending.
Structural Soundness
The deck must be solid. Soft spots, ponding areas, and structural concerns must be addressed before any coating is applied.
Drainage Adequacy
Coatings don't fix drainage problems. Ponding areas must be corrected first, or the coating will fail prematurely in those zones.

Application precision determines performance
Surface preparation is 80% of a successful coating application. We clean, repair, and prime the existing membrane to ensure proper adhesion. Every seam, penetration, and detail area receives reinforcement before the field coating is applied.
Coating thickness is specified by the manufacturer and verified during application. Too thin and it won't perform. Inconsistent thickness creates weak spots. We measure wet film thickness throughout the process to ensure specification compliance.
The result is a seamless, reflective membrane that restores waterproofing, improves energy efficiency, and extends your roof's service life — backed by manufacturer warranty when applied to specification.

Could a coating extend your roof's life?
Free evaluation with core sampling. We'll tell you honestly if coating is the right solution.
Maintaining your coated roof
Coated roofs require the same maintenance discipline as any roof system.
Most coating systems can be recoated at end of life, extending the roof further without ever requiring a full tear-off.
