Coat the Roof You Have: Restoration in Fresno
Typical installed cost: $3.00 – $5.50 / sq ft
Dry deck, dry insulation, tired surface? Coat it. A fluid-applied silicone or elastomeric system can buy 10–15 more years and put reflectance back on the roof. Fresno's low rainfall helps here, since insulation tends to stay dry longer than in wetter regions. That makes more roofs coating candidates than owners expect. Re-roof triggers in the energy code can still apply, so check with the permit office first.
No tear-off bill
You skip $1.50–$3.50/sq ft in tear-off and landfill cost. Coatings bond to metal, mod-bit, BUR, TPO and foam.
Ponding is fine
Flat Valley roofs hold water after a rare winter storm or a clogged drain. Silicone does not mind standing water.
Cooler by the afternoon
White coatings knock surface temperature down on 105°F days. Less heat goes into the building below.
Scan before you spend
Infrared and nuclear-style moisture checks tell us if the roof can take a coating. If it cannot, we say so.
