What Is Roof Coating?

Simply put, a coating is a material installed on top of an existing roof to improve performance and durability. Coatings are specifically used to provide waterproofing, durability, longevity, and more.

This type of product is much more common in commercial roofing but can be used in residential roofing. Coatings come in different colors and materials meant to support various climates and roofs.

Signs You May Need Coating

Does My Home Need Roof Coating?

The beauty of roof coating is that it can almost always be a positive for the roof atop your home or business. Coatings can be installed along with a new roof or they can be applied years later to extend the lifespan of the roof. 

If your roof is badly damaged and repair is not feasible, then our team would likely recommend a full roof replacement instead of just a coating. We could then apply a coating to your new roof to protect it and your building for years to come. We offer

Roof Coating Process

The Coating Application Process

Our coating process begins with a simple consultation and estimate. We will then inspect your roof to ensure that it doesn’t need any major repairs before installation takes place. The inspection process will change depending on the size and type of roof and coating. Once the inspection is complete, our team will begin coating the roof.  

Consultation and Planning

We begin with a consultation to assess your needs and determine the best roofing system for your home, followed by a detailed plan for the replacement process.

Roof Inspection

Our team thoroughly inspects your roof to check for damage or issues that need repair before coating.

Surface Preparation

We clean and prep the roof surface to ensure proper adhesion and long-lasting performance of the coating.

Coating Application

High-quality roof coating is applied evenly to protect, seal, and extend the life of your existing roof.

The entire process typically takes anywhere from a few hours to 2 days depending on the size of the roof. 

The coating itself will need about 1 day to dry before it is ready to provide years of protection and performance.

Residential & Commercial Roof Coating

Roof coating is primarily used for commercial roofs. This is mainly because coatings are easiest to install on commercial roofs and most coatings are suited for flat or low-sloped roofs.

However, coatings can be applied to certain types of residential roofs, as well. If you would like to know if your roof is a candidate for coating, give us a call for more information.

 We specialize in several types optimized for El Paso’s climate, including acrylic, silicone, elastomeric, and polyurethane coatings—each chosen based on your roof type, condition, and thermal performance needs.

Absolutely. Because coatings are applied directly over existing roofs, they eliminate tear‑off costs and reduce labor, while delaying replacement by 10–25 years. This makes them a budget‑friendly and less invasive option.

Lifespans vary—common coatings last 5–15 years, with high-end elastomeric types lasting longer. We recommend inspection and potential recoating every 10–15 years to maintain durability, especially given El Paso’s intense sun exposure.
