Would you rather extend the life of your existing commercial roof safely and effectively, or replace your roof entirely? By completing the correct prep work before applying the coating we can extend the life of an existing roof and even get manufacturers’ warranties for the coating.
We know which option we’d choose—and that’s where commercial roof coatings come in.

The simplicity of roof coatings makes them a versatile option—but they’re not the right choice for every commercial roof.
So, before we dive into the nitty gritty of roof coatings, review our list of applicable surfaces or contact us to make sure a roof coating is right for you…
Roof coatings are typically applied to:
Roof coatings can generally be applied to flat and low-slope roofing. Keep in mind that roof complexity, accessibility, and condition may affect the usefulness of a roof coating.
With that said, let’s take a closer look at the three main types of roof coatings you’ll have at your disposal…
Acrylic Coatings
Typically, we utilize water-based acrylic coatings on most roof coating jobs. This is for a few reasons—first, acrylic has excellent UV reflectivity. This is key in Colorado, where our high elevations expose roof systems to an unusual amount of UV rays.
Acrylic usually comes in white, tan, or gray, to improve reflectivity, though we can source other colors. Acrylic does an exceptional job of improving efficiency (acrylic is often ENERGY STAR-rated), and can stand up to hail/debris impacts with ease. We tend to avoid acrylic coatings if the existing roof has major ponding issues.
Silicone Coatings
Much like acrylic coatings, silicone coatings provide exceptional UV resistance. Furthermore, silicone coatings are highly flexible and water-resistant, and can help reduce water pooling/ponding.
And that’s not all. Silicone coatings are available in a variety of colors to suit almost any commercial building, and with high oxidation resistance, a silicone roof will look great for years to come.
Every roofing material has advantages and disadvantages, and roof coatings are no exception. To help you make the right decision for your business, we’ve compiled a short list of pros and cons below.

So, is a roof coating the right choice for your business? Well, there’s no easy answer, and your decision will depend on a few factors.
We strive to be open and honest at Arapahoe—we’re not here to sell you a solution that won’t work.
So, step one is determining whether or not your roof is fit for a coating. Roof coatings do an excellent job of protecting what’s already there, but they can’t fix a completely worn out roof.
Provided your roof is structurally sound, a roof coating will extend its lifespan by 10 years (or more with regular maintenance).
We’ve thrown a lot of information at you, so we’ll leave you with this—getting the most out of your commercial roof depends on how you maintain it and who maintains it. And when it comes to roof maintenance/services, there’s no better choice than Arapahoe…
