Elastomeric Roof Coatings Frequently Asked Questions


Thermal-heat-image-Elastomeric-Roof-Coatings-Ohio
Will I have to replace my current roof?

It’s very likely you don’t. An elastomeric coating allows you to keep your pre-existing roof. This means you don’t have to tear off of your current roof, which is the most expensive aspect of any roof replacement.

But what about building codes? Won’t this coating count as an additional
layer?

Typically no. An elastomeric coating usually does not count as an additional layer in most building codes. We’re able to keep the project to code while restoring your pre-existing roof rather than replacing it.

Do elastomeric roof coatings weigh my roof down?

No. Elastomeric roof coatings do not add “dead weight,” so there is no impact to your building’s structural integrity.

Is SUDBURY FLAT ROOFERS a trusted name in the roofing industry?

Applying-Elastomeric-Roof-Coatings-OhioVery. For close to 20 years,  DURA POLYMERS ROOF COATINGS products have been put to the test all across CANADA. Over 1 Million square feet and counting of DURA POLYMERS ROOF COATINGS roofing materials have been applied to commercial and residential roofs. We trust them because they stand behind their products with solid, non-prorated guarantees.

Can I write this off on my taxes?

Yes. The federal government has even created tax incentives for the elastomeric cool roofs we install.

I’ve never heard of elastomeric roof coatings before. Are they a new invention?

No, they have been around since the 1970s. They were created to directly address the biggest roofing problem of the time: changing temperatures caused roofs to buckle, crack, and fail much sooner than expected. Those problems are a thing of the past with elastomeric technology.

What are the financial benefits to elastomeric roof coatings?

There are many ways in which our coatings help your bottom line:

  • You avoid an expensive roof replacement. On average, our roof coatings cost about half the price of a full roof replacement.
  • You don’t have to close your business doors. If you were to replace your roof, you would be losing multiple weeks of productivity.
  • The white finish of the coating lowers roof temperatures by 30 degrees – this means your building naturally stays cooler and you don’t have to use as much A/C.
  • Tax write-offs.
