Roof Coating Types We Apply

Acrylic Elastomeric Coatings

Water-based acrylic coatings are the most popular choice for South Carolina roofs. They offer excellent reflectivity, flexibility, and UV resistance at an affordable price point. Ideal for metal roofs, modified bitumen, and built-up roofing systems.

Silicone Roof Coatings

Silicone coatings are the premium choice for areas with ponding water or extreme UV exposure. They do not degrade in standing water and provide superior UV protection. Silicone is ideal for flat roofing systems where drainage may be imperfect.

Polyurethane Coatings

Polyurethane coatings provide the highest impact and abrasion resistance, making them ideal for roofs with foot traffic or mechanical equipment. They are commonly used on commercial buildings where rooftop HVAC units require regular maintenance access.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an elastomeric roof coating?

An elastomeric roof coating is a liquid-applied membrane that forms a seamless, flexible, waterproof barrier over your existing roof. The coating stretches and contracts with temperature changes without cracking, which is important in South Carolina where roof surface temperatures can swing dramatically. Elastomeric coatings are highly reflective, reducing cooling costs by reflecting solar heat away from the building.

How long does a roof coating last?

A professionally applied elastomeric roof coating typically lasts 10 to 15 years depending on the product, application thickness, and environmental conditions. Some premium silicone coatings can last 15 to 20 years. Many building owners choose to recoat periodically rather than replace their roof, saving significantly on long-term roofing costs.

Can you coat an existing roof without replacing it?

Yes, roof coatings are designed to be applied over existing roofing materials including metal, modified bitumen, TPO, EPDM, built-up roofing, and in some cases asphalt shingles. The existing roof must be in structurally sound condition with no major damage or extensive ponding water. We inspect your roof to determine if coating is a viable option.

How much does roof coating cost compared to replacement?

Roof coating typically costs 50 to 70 percent less than a full roof replacement. For a commercial flat roof, coating typically costs $1,500 to $5,000 for a standard project, or $3 to $5 per square foot compared to $7 to $14 per square foot for full replacement. The savings are significant, and coating can be reapplied when it reaches end of life, further extending your roof without full replacement costs.

Does roof coating reduce energy costs?

Yes, reflective roof coatings can reduce roof surface temperatures by 50 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit on hot summer days. This translates to lower attic temperatures and reduced air conditioning costs. Studies show that reflective roof coatings can reduce cooling energy costs by 10 to 30 percent depending on the building and climate conditions.
