Commercial Roof Coating Options: Which One Is Right for You?
Your roof is your building’s first line of defense. Choosing the right coating can extend its lifespan, prevent leaks, and improve energy efficiency — but not all coatings are created equal.
At WeatherTight Roofing Systems, we’ve spent over 50 years helping businesses choose the right roof coatings for their specific needs
Understanding Roof Coatings and Their Benefits
Roof coatings add a protective layer that reflects UV rays, resists ponding water, and prevents leaks. They can extend roof life by up to 20 years and are a cost-effective alternative to full replacement.
Comparing Popular Roof Coating Types
Silicone Roof Coating
Ideal for flat roofs and areas with heavy rainfall. Silicone coatings resist standing water and UV degradation, keeping roofs cooler and leak-free.
Acrylic Roof Coating
Lightweight and cost-effective, acrylic coatings perform well in dry, sunny climates. They provide strong UV protection but may need maintenance in humid conditions.
Spray Foam Roofing
More than just a coating, spray foam adds insulation and structural strength. It’s seamless, waterproof, and energy-efficient — a long-term solution for any roof.
Polyurea Coating
A high-performance option known for extreme durability. Polyurea resists impact and chemicals, making it ideal for industrial facilities.
