- Minor surface cracking and seam wear
- High top-floor cooling costs
- You want to extend roof life without a tear-off
What's included

- Cleaning, repair and surface preparation
- Seam, penetration and flashing reinforcement
- Coating around solar-array legs, guardrail posts and other roof penetrations
- Application of reflective or waterproof coating, including Gaco silicone roof coating systems

FAQ
Roof Coatings & Waterproofing FAQs
Can any roof be coated?
No. Roofs with wet insulation or major damage need repair or replacement first. We check before recommending a coating.
Can a roof with solar panels be coated?
Often, yes. We reinforce the seams under and between the array, carry the coating around every leg and post, and seal each base. We look at the layout first and tell you what is practical.
How long does a coating last?
It varies by product, roof condition and exposure. We explain the expected service life of the option we recommend.
