If you are a business owner with a commercial property, then you know that the roof is one of the most critical aspects of your building. The roof protects your property from the elements and keeps it in good condition.
That’s why it’s important to ensure that your roof is well-protected, and
Perma-Coat Roof Coating can help. This blog post will discuss the benefits of using Perma-Coat Roof Coating on your commercial roof.
Roof Coating Systems
Before roof coatings were developed, restoring commercial roofs generally required a complete tear-off of the old roofing material and the installation of a new roof. This was not only time-consuming and expensive, but it also caused disruptions to your business operations.
Fortunately,
roof coating systems have made it possible to restore your roof without having to remove the old material completely. And one of the most popular coatings is Perma-Coat
Roof Coating.
Perma-Coat Roof Coatings are a specialized type of coating designed to protect and extend the life of your commercial roof. They are made from 100% acrylic elastomeric, which is a durable and weather-resistant material.
Acrylic coatings have been proven effective in protecting roofs from UV rays, wind, rain, and snow.
They are also flexible, expanding and contracting with your roof as temperature changes. This flexibility helps to prevent cracking and peeling, which can lead to leaks. They can be applied to most
commercial roofs, including metal, asphalt, concrete, and EPDM rubber.
Why Perma-Coat Roof Coating is the Best Choice for Commercial Roofs
Commercial roofs are usually more extensive and more complex than residential roofs. They are also subject to more wear and tear because they are constantly exposed to the elements. That’s why choosing a roof coating system designed for commercial roofs is important. Here are some of the benefits you can get with Perma-Coat Roof Coating:
Improved energy efficiency
Perma-Coat Roof Coating reflects UV rays, which can help to keep your building cooler in the summer. This can lead to lower energy bills and a more comfortable work environment for your employees. This means you don’t need to make the whole building air-conditioned, and you can save money on your energy bill.
Extended roof life
Perma-Coat Roof Coating protects your roof from the elements and extends its life. This can add years of service life to your roof and help you avoid the cost of a new roof. Unlike some other types of coatings, Perma-Coat Roof Coating can be applied over the existing roofing system. You can keep your commercial roof looking new and in good condition for many years.
Reduced maintenance costs
Perma-Coat Roof Coating is low-maintenance and easy to care for. They don’t require regular cleaning and can be cleaned with a hose or pressure washer. And because roof coatings provide high durability and weather resistance, you won’t need to repair or replace your roof often. This can save you money on
roof maintenance costs over the long run.
Mildew Resistance
While providing high durability and reflectivity, Perma-Coat Roof Coating also resists mildew and algae growth. Commercial roofs not treated with Perma-Coat Roof Coating are more likely to develop mold and mildew, leading to worse conditions, including premature aging, leaks, and reduced curb appeal. But with 100% acrylic elastomeric coating, you can keep your commercial roof looking new and in good condition for many years.
UV Resistance
In terms of UV resistance, Perma-Coat Roof Coating is one of the best choices for commercial roofs. It can reflect up to 97% of the sun’s UV rays, which can help to protect your roof from premature aging. This can lead to a longer lifespan for your roof and save you money on replacement costs.
No Complex Installation
Perma-Coat Roof Coating can be installed quickly and effortlessly, unlike some other roofing systems. Because there is no drilling, nailing, or seam welding throughout the installation, there are few noise disturbances. Roof coatings are also low in VOCs and free of unpleasant or aggressive smells allowing you to keep your business open.
