What's included

What's included in a roof coating?

Every vetted pro does the job by the book, so it's done right the first time.

Clean and prep

Your pro cleans the roof and seals seams and cracks so the coating bonds and lasts.

A tough sealant layer

A silicone, acrylic, or elastomeric coating goes on to seal the whole roof against water.

Reflect the heat

A reflective white coating bounces sun off your roof, which can lower summer cooling bills.

Add years of life

A good coating can add 10–15 years to a sound flat or metal roof before a full replacement.

On a sound flat or metal roof, yes — a quality coating seals small leaks, seams, and cracks. It is not a fix for a failing roof, though. A vetted pro checks whether your roof is a good candidate.
A good coating lasts 10–15 years and can be recoated to extend it further. Silicone holds up best against ponding water; acrylic is a lower-cost option for drier climates.
