Why Tear-Off When You Can Restore?
SmartCoat Seamless. Sustainable. Smart
Liquid-applied roof restoration is the fastest-growing segment in low-slope roofing, because it costs less than a tear-off, sends less material to landfill, and adds years of roof life.
Financial Savings
- Restoring a roof instead of tearing it off can cut costs by up to 40%.
- Roof coatings are classified as maintenance, offering tax advantages compared to capital expenditures for full replacements.
- A bright-white, reflective coating helps reduce energy costs by minimizing heat absorption.
Environmentally Friendly
- Roof restoration generates less waste than full tear-offs, reducing landfill impact.
- SmartCoat™ coatings are reflective, which lowers energy demand and cuts carbon footprints.
- The liquid-applied system cures without seams, so SmartCoat™ adds years of roof life without giving up performance.

Most Commonly Treated Surface Types
Roof coatings can be applied to most membrane or metal roofing systems, whether new or existing. Whether a roof can be restored depends on its condition, and some surfaces need extra preparation before the coating will bond. Common candidates include:
- EPDM
- TPO
- Modified Bitumen
