Your Roof Might Not Needto Be Replaced. It Might Just Need to Be Renewed.
If your commercial roof is showing signs of age but the underlying structure is still sound, a full tear-off and replacement may not be necessary. A professional roof coating system can seal existing leaks, create a seamless waterproof barrier, reflect solar heat, and add 10 to 20 years of protected life — at 50 to 70 percent less than the cost of replacement.
At IGR Roofing, roof coatings are a cornerstone of our protect-first approach to commercial roofing. We'd rather help you get the maximum life out of your existing roof than sell you a replacement you don't need. Coatings let us do exactly that — and they're one of the smartest investments a commercial building owner can make.
Coating Systems We Install
Silicone Roof Coatings
Our most-recommended coating for Oklahoma commercial buildings. Its standout advantage is handling ponding water without breaking down — unlike acrylic, silicone doesn't re-emulsify when exposed to standing water.
- Handles ponding water
- Excellent UV resistance
- Seamless waterproof surface
- Applies over TPO, EPDM, metal, BUR
Acrylic Roof Coatings
Excellent option for roofs with positive drainage where ponding water isn't a concern. Superior dirt pickup resistance means the reflective surface stays cleaner and more effective longer.
- Superior dirt resistance
- Exceptional tear strength
- Water-based, environmentally friendly
- Maximum reflectivity

The Business Case for Roof Coatings
50–70% Less Than Replacement
For a 20,000 sq ft roof, that can mean $50,000–$100,000+ in savings that stays in your operating budget.
10–20 Years Added Life
A properly applied coating extends your existing roof's service life significantly, depending on product and thickness.
Lower Energy Costs
Reflective coatings reduce rooftop temperatures and can cut cooling costs by 10–30%.
Minimal Business Disruption
Coating application is faster, quieter, and far less invasive than a tear-off and replacement. Most buildings remain fully operational.
No Tear-Off Waste
Coatings go over your existing roof, eliminating the cost and environmental impact of tearing off and disposing of old roofing material.
Renewable
When the coating eventually reaches end of life, it can often be recoated again — adding another cycle of protection without ever replacing the underlying roof system.
Tax Advantages
Roof coatings are typically classified as a maintenance expense rather than a capital expenditure, which may offer more favorable tax treatment. Consult your accountant for specifics.
