Will a coating fix my leaking roof?

Only if the leak is from surface UV degradation or pinhole-level failure. Seam, flashing, or structural failures need repair first; coating is then applied over a sound substrate.

How long does a coating last?

10–15 years on qualifying systems with proper maintenance. Most coatings are renewable — periodic re-coat extends life indefinitely.

Can a coating be a capital expense vs. a maintenance expense?

Often yes. Coatings frequently qualify for maintenance-expense treatment vs. the capital depreciation schedule of a full replacement. Confirm with your accountant.

Will the coating affect my existing warranty?

Sometimes. We work with the original manufacturer (when one exists) to preserve warranty eligibility or transition to a coating-system warranty.

About Roof Coatings

A coating system can extend the service life of an aging commercial roof by 10–15 years at roughly 30% of replacement cost — and frequently qualifies as a maintenance expense rather than a capital project.

We apply silicone, acrylic, and polyurethane coating systems over existing TPO, EPDM, mod-bit, and metal roofs. The right chemistry depends on the substrate, ponding-water exposure, and warranty target. Silicone handles ponding water best; acrylic is cost-effective for non-ponding applications; polyurethane is the toughest against foot traffic.

Coating is not a fix for a roof that's structurally failed — wet insulation, separated seams, or systemic membrane failure won't be cured by a coating, and applying over those conditions traps the problem underneath. We inspect first and only recommend coating when the substrate can support it.

Manufacturer warranties on qualifying coating systems run 10, 15, and 20 years and are renewable with periodic re-coats. For asset managers, the capex-to-opex shift alone can justify the program.

Our process

01
Substrate inspection & moisture survey
We confirm the existing roof is sound enough to coat — wet insulation or failed seams are deal-breakers.
02
Surface prep & repair
Power-wash, prime, and repair any local failures before coating goes on.
03
Spray or roller application
Manufacturer-spec mil thickness applied in one or two coats depending on system.
04
Final inspection & warranty
Manufacturer field inspection and warranty registration.
