Homeowners and building managers need to focus on their rooftops to maintain their properties. The harsh Hawaii weather can take its toll on these surfaces and cause significant damage over time. One of the most effective ways to protect your investment is to install a roof coating. As you contemplate this service, consider these three advantages of roof preservation.

Why Install a Roof Coating?

1. Limit Energy Usage

Roof coatings provide insulation that regulates the temperature inside your property and makes it more comfortable. During the summer, the home will stay cool without the risk of cold air leaking through the roof, and it will keep in warm air during colder fall and winter nights. This will keep you from depending on your HVAC system and reduce your energy costs and carbon footprint in the process.

2. Prevent Water Damage

In Hawaii, the wettest part of the year is between November and March. Water damage is often the culprit when roofs require replacement or repair. By protecting your existing rooftop with a coating, you can prevent moisture from penetrating the surface and causing issues like leaks, mold, and mildew. When your roofing contractor begins to install the coating, they can repair any existing leaks or damage.

3. Protect Life Expectancy

The estimated life expectancy of both residential and commercial roofing systems depends mainly on the level of maintenance performed over their lifetime. With proper care, they can often last for decades, but failing to be vigilant with repairs can limit their lifespan to five to seven years. Adding a coating to the surface is an easy way to extend the life of the roof by protecting it against damage from weather and debris.
