Coating and restoration

A fluid-applied coating over a sound roof restores the surface, adds reflectivity, and can extend service life meaningfully at a fraction of replacement cost — and on a roof with a restorable system it often carries a renewable warranty. The critical word is sound. Coating over wet insulation or open seams seals the problem in, and the roof that would have needed a recover now needs a full tear-off at considerably greater expense.

What the job involves

  • Moisture survey to confirm the build-up is dry before anything is applied
  • Seam and detail repair as preparation, not afterthought
  • System selected to suit the existing membrane
  • Full surface preparation and adhesion testing
  • Warranty terms set out in writing

Signs you need it

  • A membrane with life left but a degraded surface
  • A capital replacement that needs deferring for budget reasons
  • High cooling load from a dark, heat-absorbing roof

Questions

Is coating a real alternative to replacement?

On a dry roof with sound insulation, yes — it genuinely extends service life and defers a capital cost. On a roof with wet insulation it is money wasted, because the saturation continues underneath and the eventual tear-off now includes removing the coating too. The moisture survey is the whole decision.

How long does a coating last?

Typically ten to twenty years depending on system and thickness, often with a renewable warranty if it is inspected and recoated on schedule. Treat it as a maintained system rather than a one-off.

Describe what you are seeing

Low-slope roofs in this climate fail at details rather than in the field, and the damage is usually well advanced before water reaches a tenant space.
