Using roof coatings for a commercial or industrial roof is generally a “newer” concept in terms of the history of roofing. However, this is a trend that will be around for a while.

When we asked Chat GPT to give us the top 10 trends in commercial roofing, three bullet points related directly to the roof coatings that Armour currently installs. These include:

Cool Roofing: Cool roof coatings were created to reflect more sunlight and absorb less heat and are trending due to their energy efficiency benefits. Many of our roofing processes include a top layer that does this exact thing. It’s estimated that it reflects about 70% of the sun’s rays which help keep the building cooler and reduce energy consumption.

Roof Coatings: This is a given because most of our work involves roof coatings. They’re a great (and affordable) alternative to restore your roof and extend the lifespan of commercial roofs. In addition to sealing up any water entry points, these coatings provide additional protection against UV radiation, weathering, and water damage.

Maintenance and Inspection Services: As part of our commitment to ensuring clients get the most extended lifetime value of their roof coatings, we created a maintenance plan to proactively identify and resolve issues. These preventative plans can help protect your roof and building from water damage due to seasonal weather fluctuations.

While some believe roof coatings are a trend, the demand and growing awareness of this product will be around for a while, and more and more building owners are trusting it to protect their buildings.
