10 Things Every Business Owner Must Know About Roof Coatings


When it comes to maintaining your commercial roof, roof coatings can offer the best strategic investment for your roof. Roof coatings come in two forms: Silicone and Acrylic. Silicone is the best for flat roofs and can be applied over roll roofing, TPO, metal, or modified bitumen. Acrylic must be applied to roofs with a slight pitch, but it offers the same great protection as silicone at a lower price for roofs of any substrate.


There is a lot to know about roof coatings, so here’s your quick, one-stop guide to commercial roof coatings for building owners in Florida.

  • 01. Roof Coatings Extend the Life of Your Roof

    Roof coatings apply a layer of protection to your roof and, therefore, extend its life. Our roof coatings all come with extended warranties to give you peace of mind about your investment. 10-, 15-, and 20-year warranties are available with our acrylic, and 10- or 12-year warranties are available with our silicone coatings. Additionally, these warranties are transferable to the next owner should you sell your building.

  • 02. Roof Coatings Make Your Building More Energy Efficient

    Both acrylic and silicone roof coatings have UV-ray blockers in them and reflect sunlight to make your roof more efficient and save you money on expensive electric bills in Florida. Some customers have seen as much as 40% savings!

  • 03. Roof Coatings Add a Layer of Waterproofing Protection to Your Roof

    If you have a flat roof in Florida, you’ve probably experienced leaking at some point. Flat roofs are notorious for leaks, but our silicone coatings will waterproof your roof and drastically reduce your risk of leaks and expensive repairs. Our acrylic coatings offer the same great protection for a pitched roof.

  • 04. Roof Coatings are Environmentally Friendly

    All of our roof coatings are environmentally friendly and low VOC, so you can rest assured that you are protecting our fantastic Florida waters. Additionally, roof coatings keep old roof debris out of our rapidly filling landfills.

  • 05. Roof Coatings Offer Tax Benefits for Commercial Building Owners

    Replacing a roof comes out of capital expenses; restoring a roof is categorized as a maintenance expense and reduces your tax liability. In addition, since the government expects you to depreciate the roof over 39 years, you gain more from that benefit by extending the roof’s service life through restoration. You should always consult your tax professional during the decision-making process to maximize the total tax implications of your decision.

  • 06. Roof Coatings are Far Less Disruptive to Business Than Re-roofing

    In most cases, business can be conducted as usual while the roof is being coated. Barring any repairs ahead of time, whatever business you’re running underneath that roof won’t even know it is being worked on.

  • 07. Roof Coatings Reduce Maintenance Costs Over Time

    A roof coating will reduce future roof problems and keep your business running smoothly. Roof coatings provide a smooth surface that is easier to clean and maintain than traditional substrates. Because roof coatings are so durable in design, they require far less touch-up maintenance. All of this works together for long-term savings for the commercial building owner.

  • 08. Roof Coatings Help Building Owners Get and Keep Insurance

    Every commercial building owner knows that insurance can be a real hassle. Roof coatings will make an ugly, old roof look brand new and give insurance inspectors very little to point out on reports. This often leads to better rates and longer expected lifespans reported.

  • 09. Roof Coatings Add a Layer of Protection to Your Roof

    Our roof coatings protect from damage from wind and hail. The 2024 hurricane season wreaked havoc on roofs across the state. If the roof wasn’t torn off completely, in most cases our coatings stood strong against the elements.

  • 10. Roof Coatings Offer Building Owners Peace of Mind

    Waterproofing, great warranties, tax reductions, energy savings, lower maintenance, wind/impact resistance, low environmental impact, and smooth insurance processes all add up to one thing all commercial building owners want: peace of mind about their investment.
