ROOF COATINGSilicone & Acrylic

Flat roof restoration in Burbank starts with prep, not product. Hillside exposure means long afternoon sun and the first of the Santa Ana winds, which is hard on a flat roof's surface and its flashings.

When we tell you not to coat

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 Burbank roof needs replacing instead.

Pricing a Burbank 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.

Standards we hold on every Burbank job

Plants and pool equipment are covered before tear-off begins.

• Intake and exhaust are balanced on the same visit - a sealed attic cooks a new roof early.
• Payment is tied to progress, not demanded up front.
• One person runs your job and answers the phone the whole way through.
• Edges are fastened to spec because that is where uplift starts.

What the work looks like

• 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

Does your Burbank roof need coating?

A coating earns its keep on a roof with these problems:

• Low spots that hold water for days after a storm
• Seams and laps that have opened up and started weeping
• A roof with years left in the deck and insulation underneath
• 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

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.

Choosing the system for your Burbank roof

• 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.

Serving Burbank and nearby

We coat commercial and residential low-slope roofs throughout Burbank and the surrounding Los Angeles County communities, including Toluca Lake, Glendale and North Hollywood.

A closer look at Burbank

Every town in Los Angeles County treats a roof a little differently, and hillside exposure means uplift at the ridges and UV on the south faces. 10 miles northwest means a crew, a ladder and a tarp can be there this afternoon.

Crews rotate through Toluca Lake, Glendale and North Hollywood, so the drive is routine.

• We work around tenants and business hours where the building is occupied.
• Material is delivered the morning of the job, not left on the driveway for a week.
• Where an HOA sets colour or material rules, we match the approved list before the job is quoted.
• Gutters are pulled and refitted where they block a proper drip edge.
• Satellite dishes and A/C line sets are re-flashed, not just set back down.

Insurance work moves faster when the damage is documented before the next storm. The inspection is free, and so is the second opinion if you already have a quote.
