Professional Roof Coating Services Savannah GA | Extend Your Roof Life 10-15 Years
Expert roof coating services for Savannah and Coastal Georgia. Waterproofing, UV protection, and energy savings with professional roof coating application.
What is Roof Coating?
Roof coating is a protective liquid membrane applied over your existing roof that creates a seamless, waterproof barrier. It reflects UV rays, reduces cooling costs by 15-30%, prevents leaks, and extends your roof's life by 10-15 years. Modern coatings are highly elastic, so they move with your roof without cracking. They're particularly effective for flat roofs, metal roofs, and aging roofs that are structurally sound but showing surface wear. At a fraction of replacement cost, coating is one of the smartest investments for roof protection.
Benefits of Roof Coating
Superior Waterproofing
Creates seamless moisture barrier. Prevents leaks before they start. Protects against coastal humidity and rain.
UV Protection
Reflects 85-90% of sunlight. Reduces surface temperature 40-60°F. Prevents UV degradation and aging.
Energy Savings
Lower cooling costs 15-30%. Saves $200-$500 annually. Pays for itself in 5-8 years.
Extends Roof Life
Adds 10-15 years lifespan. Costs 60-75% less than replacement. Can be recoated for additional protection.
