Roof coating is a protective liquid-applied membrane that extends the life of your existing roof in Charlotte, NC, by sealing leaks and reflecting heat. It works best on metal, single-ply, or modified bitumen roofs that are still structurally sound, giving you 10–15 more years of service without a full tear-off. Call 7044761263 for a free inspection.
Roof coating involves cleaning the roof surface, repairing any blisters or exposed fasteners, and then applying a thick, elastomeric coating in two coats. We use acrylic, silicone, or polyurethane formulas depending on your roof type and whether ponding water is an issue. The coating self-levels into seams and around penetrations, creating a seamless, watertight barrier. It also reflects UV rays, which cuts cooling costs during Charlotte's hot, humid summers. A typical 2,000-square-foot roof takes two to three days to coat, and the result is a roof that resists granule loss, erosion, and end-of-life wear. This is not a permanent fix for a roof that is already rotting or sagging, but it is a smart way to delay a roof replacement and protect your investment.
Roof coating includes a thorough inspection of the roof deck, flashing, and drainage. We power-wash the surface to remove dirt, algae, and loose granules. Then we repair any blisters, open laps, or exposed fasteners with a compatible sealant. We apply the coating in two coats, using a sprayer and roller, and we hand-seal every penetration, vent, and pipe boot. The final coat cures to a seamless membrane that withstands ponding water and UV rays. We also reseal the perimeter and any metal flashings to ensure a watertight transition. This service includes a 10-year workmanship warranty, and we document the entire process with photos before and after.
Roof coating is needed when you notice these signs: water stains on ceilings that seep after heavy rain, granules flaking off in gutters, or a roof surface that feels chalky and erodes when you touch it. Cracks that spider across the membrane, blisters that peel when you press them, and rusted metal panels that spall are all signs the roof is losing its protective layer. If the roof deck is sagging or you see rot at the eaves, coating will not help. But if the structure is sound and the problem is surface wear, coating can stop the damage and add years of life.
Roof coating works in five steps. First, we inspect the roof and measure the square footage, checking for ponding water and membrane condition. Second, we clean the roof with a pressure washer and allow it to dry completely. Third, we repair any damaged areas, replacing loose fasteners and sealing open laps. Fourth, we apply the first coat of coating using a sprayer, working it into seams and around penetrations. Fifth, we apply the second coat, usually at a right angle to the first, to ensure full coverage. We let the coating cure for 24 hours before any foot traffic. The whole process takes two to three days for a typical 2,000-square-foot roof, and we protect your landscaping and walkways with tarps.
