ROOF COATINGSilicone & Acrylic

Most Orange flat roofs do not need tearing off — they need cleaning, repairing and sealing. Hot, dry summers and sharp swings between day and night work the membrane and its laps until the surface gives up.

Two coating systems, one right answer

• Silicone: the pick for roofs that pond. It handles standing water, resists UV without turning brittle, and lasts longest of the two.
• Acrylic: the pick for roofs that drain clean. Lower cost per square, excellent reflectivity, and easy to recoat later.
• Both go down seamless, so there are no laps or fasteners for water to work into.
• Both drop the roof surface temperature sharply, which shows up on the cooling bill of a conditioned building.

Pricing a Orange roof coating

A coating runs well under the cost of a tear-off and replacement, and there is no dumpster, no demolition and no days of noise over the tenants' heads.

Because the work is additive, most buildings stay open and in use while we are on the roof.

Serving Orange and nearby

We coat commercial and residential low-slope roofs throughout Orange and the surrounding Orange County communities, including Villa Park, Santa Ana and Tustin.

Questions Orange owners ask us

Weather delays are called early rather than left to surprise you.

• Intake and exhaust are balanced on the same visit - a sealed attic cooks a new roof early.
• Ice-and-water goes in at the valleys and penetrations even though it rarely freezes here.
• The quote lists materials and labour separately so you can see what you are buying.
• Drone shots cover the steep sections, and the rest is checked on foot.

Conditions we plan for in Orange

Roof life in Orange is decided by exposure more than brand, and dust, heat and wind arrive together and find any weak detail. From the yard it is roughly 29 miles southeast to Orange - no travel surcharge, no week-long wait.

You will see our trucks in Villa Park, Santa Ana and Tustin on the same run.

• Skylights are re-flashed as part of the job rather than quoted as an extra later.
• Skylights are flashed new rather than reused, because that is where the next leak starts.
• Gutters are pulled and refitted properly instead of being crushed by a ladder.
• Chimney and wall flashings are replaced, not painted over with sealant.
• We photograph every penetration before and after, so the file shows the work.

We would rather be on your roof in September than during the first atmospheric river. Everything starts with a free inspection and a written number for your Orange property.

When coating is the wrong call

Coating is not for every roof. If the deck is soft, the insulation is wet or the membrane is finished, a coating only hides the problem — we will tell you the Orange roof needs replacing instead.

When coating makes sense in Orange

We usually recommend coating when the roof shows:

• Flashing and penetrations that leak while the field of the roof is still solid
• Low spots that hold water for days after a storm
• Chalky, sun-baked membrane that has lost its surface but not its body
• A building that cooks in summer and runs the air conditioning hard
• A roof with years left in the deck and insulation underneath

Lifespan and recoating

A silicone system at the right thickness over a properly prepped roof gives you ten years and up, and acrylic is close behind on a roof that drains well. Both systems are renewable: when the time comes you wash the roof and add another coat instead of starting over, which is why building owners keep coming back to them.

The coating process, step by step

• Inspect and measure, including core tests where we need to know what is under the membrane
• Clean the roof — power wash, remove dirt, chalk and loose coating
• Repair: cracks, open seams, failed flashing, blisters and bad penetrations
• Prime where the substrate calls for it
• Apply the coating in multiple passes to the specified thickness, seams and details first
• Final walk for even coverage and thickness, then clean up the site
