SILICONE COATING
A silicone roof coating is a type of elastomeric coating applied to existing roofing surfaces to create a protective barrier.
Benefits:
Water Resistance: Silicone coatings are highly resistant to ponding water, which means they can withstand standing water without breaking down.
UV Protection: They reflect a significant portion of the sun’s UV rays, reducing heat absorption and protecting the roof from sun damage. This can also help lower cooling costs.
Durability: Silicone coatings create a flexible, durable membrane that can withstand extreme weather conditions, including wind-driven sand and oxidation.
Energy Efficiency: By reflecting UV rays, silicone coatings help keep buildings cooler, which can reduce the load on HVAC systems and lower energy bills.
Environmental Benefits: Many silicone coatings are environmentally friendly, with low volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and solvent-free formulations.
Ease of Application: They can be applied in a single pass, saving time and labor costs.
Longevity: Silicone coatings can extend the life of your roof by protecting it from the elements and reducing the need for frequent repairs.
Drawbacks:
Attracts Dirt: Silicone coatings tend to attract dirt and other airborne particles, which can reduce their reflective properties over time.
Slippery When Wet: The surface of a silicone-coated roof can become very slippery when wet, posing a safety hazard.
Higher Initial Cost: Silicone coatings are generally more expensive upfront compared to other types of roof coatings.
Difficult to Adhere: Once applied, silicone can be challenging to adhere to if you need to apply another type of coating or make repairs. Often, the existing silicone layer must be removed first.
Potential for Roof Damage: If not applied correctly, silicone coatings can trap moisture underneath, potentially leading to roof damage.
Unpleasant Smell During Application: Silicone coatings can emit a strong, unpleasant odor during application.
