Extend the Life of Your Roof With Fluid Applied Roof Coatings

As roofs age and the effects of ordinary wear and tear deteriorate your them, your system may find itself in between repair and replacement. If repairing your roof won’t add long-term benefits, but your decking and underlayment are still viable, a Durable Roofing restoration is an ideal solution. Liquid roofing membranes are highly effective coatings applied over a wide range of roofing materials and substrates as a layer of waterproof protection. When properly used by the roofing experts at Durable Roofing, the rubber-like membrane creates a seamless base coat that extends the life of your roofing system up to 20 years.

Commercial Roof Maintenance Programs

Extending the life of your roof by up to 20 years at half the cost of a roof replacement and requiring no business downtime or resident disruption sounds impossible. But thanks to Durable Roofing Company’s fluid-applied roof coatings, you experience those benefits and more.

Durable Roofing’s experience and knowledge of Chicago area roofing allow us to choose the type of roof coating that best suits your specific needs. Liquid applied roof coatings provide superior customization and conformability and are easily applied to almost any flat-roof surface, including:

Roof coatings and fluid-applied systems

Silicone Roof Coatings

Silicone coatings are the ideal solution to handle the extremes of Chicago weather. Their highly flexible nature allows them to expand and contract with the changes from hot summers to cold winters. If ponding water is an issue, silicone provides superior protection because it doesn’t absorb moisture.

Silicone roof coatings are also environmentally friendly and improve energy efficiency. They reflect up to 90% of UV rays, which keeps your space more comfortable while lowering utility costs. Because silicone membranes have high solids content, less material is required to achieve a consistent coat.

Emulsion Roof Coatings

Emulsion membranes are high-strength, waterproof asphalt coatings. As one of the most cost-effective fluid applied roof coatings, Durable Roofing finds customers on tight budgets often choose emulsion. They are water-based, which means strong odors won’t disrupt your multifamily unit tenants or commercial building occupants.

Durable Roofing most commonly applies emulsion roof coatings to built-up or modified bitumen roofing as a protective layer that increases your roof’s fire resistance. Because asphalt emulsions are not reflective, they are typically applied with an elastomeric coating to increase efficiency and stability.
