Acrylic Roof Coatings

Acrylic Roof Coatings

Acrylic is the water-based elastomeric coating: bright white, easy to recoat, and well suited to metal roofs and roofs that shed water quickly. It isn't for ponding water.

Weather window

Acrylic cures by evaporation, so it can't go down before rain or on cold, damp days. We schedule around the forecast.

Prep is the job

Every coating fails at the same places: dirty or wet substrate, open seams and loose fasteners. We clean, dry-check, repair and prime before a drop of topcoat goes down, and we photograph each step. Every inspection comes with a free digital photo report, so you see what we see.

For metal roofs, see metal roof coatings.

Commercial warranty: a 10-year transferable workmanship warranty, plus 10- to 20-year NDL (no-dollar-limit) manufacturer warranties. Manufacturer coverage depends on the product and brand, and on the project qualifying for that manufacturer's program. We put the exact warranty for your roof in writing.
