Benefits of Commercial Coating
The primary benefit of commercial roof coating systems is that they are an extremely cost-effective alternative to a roof replacement. It can assist you in getting the most out of your roof without having to replace it.There are several other benefits:
Non-disruptive: Commercial coating is a noninvasive solution to fixing your roof so your business can continue to run while it's being applied.
Waterproofing: No more worrying about leaks! Heavy rain and pooling water will remain on your roof with the help of the fluid applied membrane roof.
Heat Reflection: A reflective roof directs solar energy away from the roof, keeping your building cooler on the inside.
Energy Efficiency: A cooler roof reduces the burden on your HVAC units, saving you money on utilities and repairs.
Lower Maintenance Costs: With a coated roof, you will not need as many future repairs.

The best commercial roofing option depends on many variables, like your local climate, your budget, your roofing needs, and more. Our professionals at Roof It Forward have your best interests in mind and want to help you choose the best roof coating system for your building.

Most Common Types of Commercial Roof Coating
The most common types of roof coatings are silicone and acrylic-based, but there are also asphalt and polyurethane coatings.Silicone coatings are best for high-UV areas where a reflective roof can be extremely helpful. This type of roof coating can also be used in areas where there is a lot of rainfall and the roof is normally wet with pooled water.
Acrylic water-based coatings are also great for high UV ray environments. Many special versions are compatible with other substrates.
Asphalt coatings are most effective when applied on top of other asphalt substrates. There are black and aluminized options. The black asphalt coatings work best in cold weather with frequent precipitation. Aluminized coatings are best for a sunny location where a reflective roof is best to keep the building cooler.
Polyurethane coatings have two types, aromatic and aliphatic. Aromas are less UV-stable and aliphatic are very UV-stable. These coatings have high abrasion resistance, making them best for hail-prone areas and where a roof experiences a lot of roof traffic.
