"Preparing for winter season with roof coatings".

 

During the cold winter months any splits in the membrane, leaks, separations in seams, ridges, blisters and deterioration can all lead to roof failure. If your roof is old and showing signs of deterioration then you need to replace it or recoat it.  Rather than going for an entirely new roof, you could be saving money by applying an elastomeric coating and adding years back to your rooftop.

What Is An Elastomeric Coating?

Elastomeric in-short is an elastic roof coating. It keeps the roof protected from sum exposure and protects the leaks from developing. Elastomeric roof coatings can prevent pre-mature roof failure and can even fix pre-existing damage.

Reasons to Use Elastomeric Roof Coating

#1 – Avoid a New Roof

Roof replacements are costly. With elastomeric roof coatings you can avoid expensive roof replacements. Replacing the entire roof is costly and time consuming unless you have a big wallet or insurance to cover it. Massive hours of labor and volume of materials can take the roof replacement costs to tens of thousands of dollars. Re-roofing with roof coating only costs pennies and will finished soon as compared to roof replacement.

 #2 – Save on Energy

Elastomeric roof coatings results in energy savings. Elastomeric roof coatings are designed by keeping in mind the environment. Just like on a hot summer day you would avoid wearing black clothes, so why we should have a black roof? Elastomeric roof coating comes in a white reflective finish, reflecting the sun’s rays off your home and cutting your home’s temperature drastically. 

#3 – You’ll Save on Installation

Roof replacement is labor intensive task so high labor costs are involved. Roof replacement task takes more than just few days and it’s not DIY as well. On the other hand re-roofing the roof with elastomeric roof coatings takes about 60% of the time with less labor and material costs involved. Also you’ll lose less business hours from having to stay shut for repairs.

In-short using elastomeric roof coating is more economical, less time consuming and a far better choice than a new roof.
