Roofing

Given the choice between a complete roof tear-off and replacement or a rooftop coating, most Texas commercial property owners will opt for the coating, but more lies beneath the surface of that decision than just money.

Money Matters

Roof coatings for commercial roofs are temporary, economical alternatives to more substantial options, such as re-roofing or complete replacement. Hiring a smaller crew than a typical re-roofing job, taking less time to complete the spray application, and costing significantly less for the coating than a new commercial roof, sprayed or poured coatings do save money on labor, time and materials. Restorative coatings can be useful stopgaps to prevent water infiltrationin older roofs, and can help you gain time to find financial resources for a permanent roofing solution.

Energy Efficiency

A dark roof is inherently an expensive roof. It retains heat, conducts it into your commercial building, and forces your air conditioning system or cooler to work harder. Spray coatings in energy-efficient light-hued colors can bounce much of the infrared radiation that otherwise would heat up your building. The savings you achieve with roof coatings can help build up a reserve for complete roof replacement later.

Choices

You can select from acrylic, foam, silicone and thermoplastic roof coatings. Many can be sprayed, ensuring complete coverage even over crazed, irregular roofing surfaces. Acrylic coatings are water-based, which makes them good for the environment. Silicone coatings require no painting and are extremely slick. Spray foam coatings often outlast silicone, but are tricky to apply and call for professionally trained roofers. BELDON® Roofing Company has had a great deal of success in Texas and beyond with three top manufacturers of roof coating systems:

  • Triton—Water-based, sustainable coatings that provide protection against water and chemicals while respecting the environment
  • Karnak—This company provides a complete line of coatings, cements and sealants for roofs, and is also a leader in Energy Star-certified coatings
  • TOPCOAT®—A spray that cures to form a completely seamless, acrylic elastomeric membrane, TOPCOAT® is also Energy Star certified to help reduce interior temperatures

Buying Time

Rooftop coatings can buy you valuable time, preserving a roof that may be nearing the end of its useful life. Beyond that, though, you gain benefits in energy efficiency, environmental sensitivity, and a quick, if temporary, solution to roofing problems.
