Roofing Washington, One Home at a Time
A bright reflective coating turns away summer sun while sealing your roof against the rest of the year’s rain.
Northwest summers have grown warmer and longer, and a dark low-slope roof can drive attic and interior temperatures uncomfortably high on clear afternoons. A high-albedo reflective coating bounces much of that solar energy away, easing cooling loads and reducing thermal stress on the roofing below. The same coating restores waterproofing across seams and weathered areas, so the roof stays sealed through the wet months as well. It is a two-in-one upgrade that pays off in comfort during summer and protection year round.
Reflects solar heat to lower cooling costs and improve comfort; reduces thermal stress that ages roofing prematurely; reseals seams and weathered spots against rain; supports energy-efficiency and green-building goals
1) Clean the roof and repair any active leaks or open seams; 2) Prime the surface where adhesion requires it; 3) Reinforce penetrations and transitions with detail coating; 4) Apply the reflective coat evenly to the specified thickness
Roof area and the reflectivity grade chosen; existing roof condition and prep needed; coating system and number of coats specified; access and staging for even application
Coat during the dry summer stretch so the reflective surface is in place before the hottest afternoons and cures well ahead of autumn rain.
