Types of Roof Coatings

Coatings add an extra layer of protection, durability and elasticity to a roof. In short, this means that coatings make a roof last longer, resist impact damage from hail, branches or other falling debris, and even lower the heating and cooling costs when a reflective coating is used.

There are many types of coating materials, and each depends on the type of roof being installed, the climate, the building and what effect you are trying to achieve — reflective vs. durable for example, although many coatings are both.

When professional roofers talk about roof maintenance, they are often referring to refreshing the coating on the roofing material. Periodically adding a new layer of coating prolongs its life, protects it from damage and often helps save on energy costs.

Evaluating roof coatings for use on existing roofing is similar to evaluating replacement roofs for a particular building, construction type, climate and other special considerations. Professional roofers are the best people to fully research the coatings and carefully choose the most appropriate product for your needs.
