What is silicone roof coating?

Silicone roof coating is a liquid-applied membrane over a sound low-slope roof. It cures into a seamless layer and stays stable where water ponds.

Can you coat an EPDM or SBS roof?

Yes, when the membrane is attached and the insulation is dry. Failed sheets are repaired or replaced before coating.

Silicone and liquid roofing

Silicone roof coating for flat commercial roofs.

Where a coating fits

Flat and low-slope commercial roofs.
Built-up, modified bitumen, EPDM, metal, and older coatings that are still attached.
Roofs that pond, where a silicone membrane is the right chemistry.

Where it does not

Coating does not dry wet insulation or rebuild a failed drain. Those areas are repaired first. If the sheet is finished, the job is SBS or EPDM.

Questions before you coat

Is silicone the same as acrylic roof coating?

No. Acrylic is a poor choice in standing water. Silicone is made for ponding on low-slope roofs.

How long does a silicone roof coating last?

A prepared commercial silicone system is commonly warranted around 10 to 20 years, depending on thickness and the manufacturer. We do not name a warranty year until the roof is seen.

Do you coat roofs in New York City and the surrounding counties?

Yes. Commercial and municipal buildings in New York City, Long Island, Westchester, the Hudson Valley, and northern New Jersey.
