Looking for a cost-effective way to extend the life of your roof? You've probably heard about roof coatings. These liquified polymers are becoming increasingly popular with various commercial facilities because they can restore and waterproof your existing roof system, delaying costly reroofing for many years. The seamless application provides a unique advantage, allowing you to protect non-uniform roof surfaces and reinforce weak points quickly, for a fraction of the cost of a roof replacement. Additionally, their high UV stability, reflective nature for improved energy efficiency and lower environmental impact make them a great option for a roofing solution as they prevent the need for a roof tear-off and reduce waste. There are so many benefits but are there any downfalls? Let's delve into some common concerns and misconceptions surrounding commercial roof coatings that we encounter in the field.
