Building owners looking for an easy, long-lasting, and relatively inexpensive solution for expanding the
lifespan of their roofs could greatly benefit from an Elastomeric Roof coating. Our Truco elastomeric
coatings bring numerous advantages over a basic roof installation, with very few drawbacks.
Simply put, an elastomeric coating is a layer of a rubber-style substance which is sprayed onto the roof
to create a complete layer of protection. If you are looking for a long-lasting solution for your roof that
reduces maintenance, extends its lifespan, and improves life within the building, elastomeric coatings
could do the trick.
Big Benefits from an Elastomeric Roof Coating
- Prevent weather damage
Elastomeric coatings are resistant to most forms of damage, particularly direct impacts such as from a
hailstorm. Being rubber-like, it’s bouncy and resilient. It can also absorb most or all of the damage from
direct debris impact as well – acting as a shield that prevents the roof itself from needing repair.
- Simple repairs
Of course, no coating is 100% impervious. Elastomeric coatings are vulnerable to a few things,
particularly puncture damage. This type of puncture damage should be addressed right away, so it can
be repaired properly, before allowing a lot of water into the roofing substrate. However, even then,
such coatings are generally extremely cheap and easy to repair – all it takes is spraying on a new layer
over the hole or tear. This is vastly less expensive than repairing the roof itself.
- Superior weatherproofing
Because the coating covers your rooftop end-to-end with a single seamless coat, your roof becomes
effectively impervious to water, wind, and other elements. This prevents both rooftop and indoor
maintenance. In addition, many elastomeric coatings are fire-resistant as well.
- Improved insulation
An Elastomeric Roof Coating also acts as highly effective insulation! It reflects away the heat of the sun,
as well as UV rays, reducing the strain on your air conditioning systems. Plus, being impermeable, it
helps keep your internal air from escaping via the roof.
- Inexpensive installation and ongoing care.
Finally, an elastomeric coating cost only a fraction of what a roof takes to install or repair, while vastly
extending the lifespan of the roof. The coating itself could easily last a decade or more before requiring
upkeep, and without the roof below ever seeing significant wear or damage.
