Benefits of Choosing Silicone Roof Coating
Silicone roof coating offers exceptional value for commercial and residential properties through multiple advantages.
Enhanced Roof Longevity
Silicone roof coatings significantly extend the lifespan of your existing roof by creating a durable protective layer. This coating forms a seamless membrane that effectively seals cracks, gaps, and vulnerable areas that would otherwise lead to leaks and water damage.
The robust formulation withstands extreme weather conditions including heavy rain, snow, and wind. Unlike traditional roofing solutions, silicone doesn't deteriorate from prolonged UV exposure. We've observed that properly applied silicone coatings can add 10-15 years to a roof's functional lifespan.
Energy Efficiency
Silicone roof coatings excel at reflecting solar radiation, significantly reducing rooftop temperatures by up to 50°F compared to uncoated surfaces. This reflective property decreases the cooling load on HVAC systems, leading to reduced energy consumption.
The high solar reflectance index (SRI) of silicone coatings makes them ideal for hot climates where cooling costs represent a significant expense. Many of our clients report energy savings of 15-30% after application.
Cost-Effective
Silicone roof coatings provide excellent return on investment through multiple financial benefits. The upfront cost is typically 50-70% less than a complete roof replacement, making it an economical choice for building owners.
Installation is less disruptive than traditional roofing work, minimizing business interruptions and associated costs. The application process requires fewer labor hours and generates less waste.
Eco-Friendly
We prioritize environmentally responsible roofing solutions, and silicone coatings align perfectly with this commitment. These coatings eliminate the need for roof tear-offs, significantly reducing construction waste that would otherwise end up in landfills.
The energy-saving properties of silicone directly translate to reduced carbon emissions. By decreasing cooling requirements, buildings with silicone-coated roofs have smaller carbon footprints.
Our Coating Process
Our silicone roof coating application follows a proven methodology that ensures maximum protection and longevity for your roof.
Initial Roof Inspection
Before applying any coating, we conduct a comprehensive inspection of your roof's current condition. We look for existing damage, leaks, water pooling areas, and structural concerns that need addressing prior to coating application.
Our team evaluates the substrate material to ensure compatibility with silicone coating. We measure moisture levels using specialized equipment, as excess moisture trapped under the coating can cause failure and blistering.
Surface Preparation
Proper surface preparation is essential for silicone coating adhesion and performance. We begin by thoroughly cleaning the roof surface using pressure washing equipment to remove dirt, debris, and loose materials.
Any existing repairs must be completed before coating application:
- Sealing cracks and gaps
- Replacing damaged materials
- Reinforcing weak areas
- Addressing ponding water issues
We apply primer when necessary, especially on surfaces like TPO or EPDM membranes that may require additional adhesion support.
Coating Application
We apply silicone roof coating using specialized equipment including airless sprayers, rollers, or brushes depending on your roof's configuration. Spraying provides the most uniform coverage for large areas, while brushes and rollers work best for detail work.
The coating is applied in a consistent thickness (typically 20-30 mils) to ensure proper protection. Critical areas like seams, penetrations, and flashings receive additional attention and often a thicker application.
