Everyone knows how expensive your roof can get, especially when it’s starting to near the end of its life. Although a roof replacement will be inevitable at some point, why not do everything you can to prolong the life of your roof? It’s time to consider a roof coating solution.

Types of Roof Coatings We Apply

The type of roof coating we use will depend on the type of roof you have. Our team of professionals is here to guide you through what will work best for your commercial building.

Silicone

Silicone roof coatings protect against leaking and are ultra-sustainable. They’re easy to apply, and because they’re not water-based, they are highly water-resistant by nature. A silicone roof coating can withstand ponding water and easily last 10-15 years.

Asphalt

Asphalt-based coatings use a solvent to make them thinner and easier to apply to a roof without heavy equipment. It can be brushed or sprayed on, and it works best on metal roofs, built-up roofs, flat, and membrane roofs.

 Rubberized Aluminum

A rubber aluminum coating reflects heat and is incredibly resilient to impact. It doesn’t damage easily and can be used on built-up roofs, single-ply roofs, spray polyurethane foam, and modified bitumen roofs.

 Polyureas

Polyureas take many forms. These coatings provide abrasion resistance, corrosion protection, structural enhancement, chemical resistance, and waterproofing features. Polyureas are common on metal roofs, built-up roofs, single-ply roofs, foam, and modified bitumen roofs.

 Urethanes

A urethane roof coating is ideal for high traffic areas because it’s flexible, seamless, and durable. It can expand and contract with your roof structure. Moreover, urethanes resist water pooling, and they are more impact-resistant than many other types of coatings.

Polyurethanes

Where urethanes are flexible, polyurethanes are stiff and rigid. Polyurethane roof coatings are impact-resistant and can handle a good amount of traffic. They are available in two variations – aromatic or aliphatic polyurethane, each with their respective merits.

Granules

Granules can be added to many roof coating systems to increase the coating’s resistance to impact and abrasion. It can also improve its safety by creating a non-slip surface. It’s ideal for buildings that have a high amount of roof activity and can be used on asphalt shingles, modified bitumen roofs, and single-ply roofs.

Acrylic

Acrylic or elastomeric coatings are highly reflective and help prevent rust. It’s strong but flexible, making these acrylic coatings ideal for metal roofing because they will expand and contract with the metal. These coatings are easy to apply via a spray nozzle, making the process quicker and less labor-intensive. It’s also cost-effective, suitable for our Great Falls climate, and provides the best value.

    This company was so great to work with! Every single person involved in the project conducted themselves in a professional and friendly manner.
    From the
    … More initial conversation to the completion of the project, everything was handled beyond my expectations.
    They were quick, communicative and respectful. We are impressed by how our project was handled and thrilled with the results.
    Our roof looks great!!
    I would recommend this company to anyone and can’t say enough good things! A few points that stood out to me the most:
    - I knew I wanted to do business with A-1 Contractors Inc. immediately after reading through the first page of their bid. It was thorough, informative, and gave me confidence in their abilities.
    - I was also impressed with their punctuality on the job site. The crew had arrived on time and within 5-10 minutes of their arrival our old roof was being taken off.
    - Every single crew member addressed us as “Sir” and/or “Ma’am” and had a smile on their face the entire time. It was very apparent that they liked each other and their job. There was a sense of pride amongst their team and it showed in their work.
    - Finally, our roof was completed in 2 days and our yard was left cleaner than when they arrived!! I couldn’t be more impressed.

    Joe B on site, and Sarah in the office gave us excellent and responsive service. We had bids made from 3 roofers, and decided easily that A1 was the best … More choice. Responsive sales to service, excellent quality shingles and workmanship, promises kept with timing of the job, great follow-up service, regular cleaning up after each work day and Major clean up when the job was finished. We found Not One Nail in our yard after the crew left. And as for the crew…wonderful guys. They obviously enjoy working together, and working for A1. I highly recommend this company and have all confidence that our new roof will last a long long time. As Joe told us when we signed, “Now I’m your roofer. Any problems, we will take care of you.” And that was BEFORE the first nail was hammered in! My daughter had A1 do her roof based on our recommendation, and she too is a satisfied customer. Best Choice.

    They are amazing! My mother needed a last minute replacement on her roof for the sale of the house. Within 24 hours they had the estimate back to us and … More the job scheduled. They did everything they had to so they could squeeze us in last minute. They job was done within two days! We have had roofs replaced before and usually find nails and wood all over the yard after. I couldnt believe how clean the yard was after! They really came through for us in a critical moment. We appreciate them and their professionalism so much!

    Huge wind storm took off a section of roofing on a Friday night. Called A1 hoping someone would answer at 9 PM on a Friday and they did. Next morning they … More showed up and temporarily patched because they didn't have the correct color. Monday they show up with the correct color and completed the repair. I am super impressed, appreciative and thankful for their professionalism.
