Industrial projects are some of our favorite. They’re complex and nuanced which is exactly the type of roofing project that works best with roof coatings.

Specifically there are four reasons it makes more sense to use roof coatings on your industrial roof than a roof replacement.

Roof Coatings Cost Less Than a Roof Replacement

Even if you were to use our top-of-the-line roofing product (which happens to be a 20-year warrantied liquid rubber membrane), it would still be less than replacing your industrial roof.

For instance, at the time of this writing the cost of a metal roof replacement (which is typical of many industrial roofs) can cost anywhere from $10-$20 per square foot depending on complexity. In contrast, we often apply an acrylic metal roof coating at the rate of $2-$5 per square foot- a significant savings over new.

Roof Coatings Are Faster Than a Roof Replacement

Did you know that roof coatings don’t require a permit? Take out that step alone and we are already better positioned to quickly fix your roof.

The entire process of a roof coating is significantly less time from start to finish than a roof replacement. By the time we clean and prep your roof and install the coatings, a re-roof might still be just tearing off roofing materials. Which brings us to our next point: exposure.

Roof Coatings Don’t Expose Your Building to the Elements

Many people don’t consider but an industrial roof replacement means that at some point in time your building is exposed to the outside elements. Rain, snow, sun, and much more could adversely impact your operations and the contents within your building.

With roof coatings, none of that happens. In fact we pride ourselves by how non-disruptive the process can be. No loud noises, minimal construction waste, and zero exposure to the elements.

Roof Coatings Can Help Make Your Industrial Building Energy Efficient

An important, but less talked about benefit of roofs coatings is the energy efficiency it can produce for your industrial building. Roof coatings can reflect up to 70% of the Sun thereby reducing your cooling costs in the Winter.

A normal industrial roof replacement won’t do that unless they happen to apply roof coatings after installing your brand new roof. At which point, you should’ve used the roof coatings to begin with.
