Apply a Roof Coating & Achieve a Cool Roof

After high heat, UV rays are incredibly damaging to roofs. UV radiation can break down your roofing materials, leading to issues like cracking and splintering of your shingles. While your roof does a good job withstanding the harmful effects of the sun, over time it will begin to break down. By applying a protective coating on your roof, you can further help your roofing materials withstand the sun’s damaging rays.
Roof coatings are particularly important for flat roof systems. Because a flat roof has little to no slope, they take the full force of the heat and sun all day long. There are specialized roof coatings for flat roofs which are designed to help combat both heat and UV rays. When properly applied and maintained, roof coatings have the potential to significantly extend the life span of your roof.
For example, Elastomeric is a very popular roof coating in Arizona as it can reflect the sun’s UV rays, which can help improve the overall energy efficiency of your entire building. Similarly, silicon provides excellent UV protection and can help you achieve what is called a “cool roof” because of its white, reflective color.
Never Skip Your Routine Maintenance!

Nature is packed with unique species that are beautiful in their own right. However, there’s a good chance you probably don’t want them taking up shelter in your roof.

Protecting your roof isn’t always easy either. However, making sure your roof is in good condition and regularly receives inspections from a professional roofer can help you avoid the hassle of having to deal with this damage once it’s become a major issue.

Termites

When it comes to animal threats to your home, no word strikes more fear into the heart of a homeowner than the word “termite.” Termites are small insects that feast on wood—the wood that’s used to construct your roof, your walls, and just about everything else in your home’s structure. Colonies may have as many as a million termites or more—enough to eat a pound of wood per day. Of course, when termites are hidden inside your walls or up in your attic, you may not find this until it’s too late and your dealing with major structural damage to your roof. If you discover termite damage, it’s strongly advised you call an exterminator as soon as possible.
