Top-down protection and efficiency for your property.
Are you looking for practical ways to save on both property maintenance and utility costs? Starting with your roof is a smart move.
The benefits of cooling your roof are too good to miss.
When we talk about roof coatings, most property owners and managers assume the conversation will focus on general protection, preventing leaks, and reducing maintenance costs. All good points, and we’ll dig into those below.
But first, let’s highlight why having a cooler roof is so critical.
Commercial roofs are typically made of dark materials: metal, asphalt, single-ply, etc… This means that they soak up sunlight, often growing 30-50 degrees hotter than the air temperature. In turn, this super-heating has a direct impact on your property and its occupants.
Out of compliance with green building programs
More wear on your HVAC system
Increased strain on the local electrical grid
Much higher utility energy costs, especially during the summer months
Flip the equation with a cool roof system.
Coating your roof with a cool roof system means that heat is reflected back into the atmosphere, not soaked up by (and into) your roof. The key benefits include:
A surface temperature that almost matches the air temperature
Increased efficiency
Less strain on your HVAC system
Cooler and more comfortable for building occupants
It’s also important to remember that the sun doesn’t just heat your roof - it also causes damage. Seam separation for single-ply roofs is a common issue, as well as materials that grow brittle and crack. This opens the door to moisture intrusion, loss of heat/cooling, and pests.
What is a fluid-applied cool roof system?
We are constantly on the lookout for the best products and industry innovations to meet our clients’ needs. That’s why we’re thrilled to be certified installers of fluid-applied roof systems, delivering fast, efficient, and effective roof coatings.
How does it work?
We provide inspections to determine the condition of your current roof
Power wash to clean and prep the surface
Apply a liquid coating that creates a seamless, durable barrier with a flexible and watertight seal
Is a fluid-applied roof coating right for you?
We can apply our system over both old and new roofs, starting with a thorough inspection and examination. For an older roof that’s in good condition overall, this is an ideal way to protect and increase its lifespan. That means more time before needing to invest in a full replacement.
If you have a newer roof, the right coating is a smart way to protect and preserve your property.
It all starts with a conversation. Contact us today to learn more and schedule a time to review your roof system and goals in more detail.
