What Is Roof Coating and the advantages of Roofing Coating?

What Is Roof Coating?

Roof coating is a resilient and elastic application that involves covering your existing roof ether concrete roofing of metal roofs with a monolithic or liquid membrane for waterproofing, insulation and reflective etc. Your original roof will be completely overlaid with this seamless, cold-applied, rubber like protectant layer, making it stronger than ever.

Roof coatings are polymer-based liquid compounds that are either rolled or sprayed directly onto your existing roof. The idea is to extend the life of your existing roof without replacing it, it can also be painted directly on your under constructed roofs to make it stronger. It adds a layer of protection against light, water, and other elements. Roof coatings are a great way to prevent cracks, corrosion, and other damage while delaying a roof replacement until you’re ready.

The Advantages of Roof Coatings

Applying a roof coating is the smartest thing you can do for your roof. It is best to apply to the roof coating when the roof is new or relatively new, as it will have fewer problems than an older roof. However, if any faults are fixed prior to the coating, the roof being new is not a prerequisite. Below are the advantages that roof coating provides:

It reduces heat transfer into the building, decreasing expansion and contraction - also known as thermal shock. This keeps the roof in much better condition.

Helps stop minor leaks. The coating will stop any little leaks from spreading, however the roof should be properly repaired and repaired prior to coating application, and any big problems should be addressed beforehand.

Reflective coatings can also significantly reduce heat energy costs, like sinomaco silicone white reflective coating, depending on your geographic location and insulation. The coating allows heat to be stored, while regulating the temperature. This decreases the risk of power outages and the strain on the electrical grid.

Roof coating makes the roof resistant to ultraviolet radiation from sunlight and other adverse effects of weathering.

It acts as waterproofing protection for the roof, keeping the interior dry and reducing the chances of flooding and/or water damage.

Roof coating - if done properly - typically lasts up to 10 years or more. Performance is based on type and conditions, as well as coating film thickness. It is recommended that you inspect your roof at least twice a year, paying attention to how effective the coating is. Your roof can be recoated once the coating wears away as most coatings are renewable.

The Recommended Roofing Coating

At Sinomaco Roofing, we provide a range of leading commercial roof coating materials for different kind of distributors with OEM production and ODM making. However, for exterior waterproofing of your roofing works, we strongly recommend the Reflective and anti UV Silicone waterproof Roofing Coating and Elastomer Acrylic Waterproof Roofing Coating

Our silicone elastic roofing coating and acrylic elastomeric liquid membrane will paint your roof in a radiant color, optional colors are white, gray, blue, red etc.. Especially the white color, it not only brings brightness to the building but also strategically reflects 90% of the sun’s rays so it is also called reflective roofing coating. That heat resistance reduces cracking and cools your roof, leading to lower utility bills. No roof removal or construction is required and the materials are easy to apply.
