Roof Coating / Spray on Coatings

Benefits of applying roof coating

There are various benefits of applying a roof coating to your property, whether commercial, industrial or domestic. For example, roof coatings can amend roof leaks on different types of roofing material, but only when installed correctly by professionals. Reflective roof coatings can also extend your roof's lifespan and provide extra protection from external factors such as different weather conditions.

The main financial benefit of a roof coating is that it can increase the longevity and durability of your roof, which means you will not have to replace your roof as soon as you would without a roof coating.

Overall, roof coatings can improve the appearance of your current roof and can increase its lifespan, reflectivity and durability. These benefits can save you money as you are extending the usage of your existing roof.

Why is roof coating better than a new roof?

Many homeowners, landlords or businesses opt for roof restoration rather than a completely new roof to avoid costly services. It also takes time to replace a new roof, which is not ideal for commercial properties. Replacing an entire roof can also be detrimental to commercial properties, as the process can deter potential customers from entering the property.

A roof coating helps restore your roof and can save you money, as opposed to replacing the entire roof. Our team at JR Cleaning will also undertake each roof coating or spraying painting job in an efficient manner while causing minimal disturbance to your home or business.

Different types of roof coatings

There are various types of roof coatings, as they are needed for different purposes. The main reason for roof coatings is to restore an old roof, as it helps to increase the roof's overall lifespan.

The primary materials used in a roof coating formulation include silicones, coal tar pitch, acrylics, asphalt and butyl, to name a few components.

How long do roof coatings last?

With high-quality roof coating, it will typically last 10-20 years; however, you can reapply the coating at the end of the warranty, making it a renewable system. The exact lifespan will depend on the thickness of the coating, and other contributing factors, which our team at JR Cleaning will discuss with you.

Typically, a built-up roof will require regular maintenance to check to see if the coating needs to be reapplied or if any developing issues need to be addressed. Regular maintenance will also allow you to identify any issues before they become expensive damage.

Signs your roof needs coating

Your roof is one of your property's main defences against weather conditions and outside elements, which is why you should ensure it is maintained.

Be on the lookout for loose or cracked tiles, leaks, and even holes. Other aesthetic factors should also be considered to ensure your property looks appealing, such as discolouration, peeling tiles or moss build-up. A roof coating will provide a much-needed barrier between the sun's rays and your tiles, which will help maintain the appearance of your roof.

Furthermore, certain roof coatings will help decrease the chance of moss growing on your roof.
