Lincoln Shingle Roof Coating Contractor

Yes, when the shingles lie flat and still hold most of their granules. Missing or broken tabs are replaced, loose shingles secured, and the surface cleaned before a coating made for asphalt shingles goes on. Curling, brittle, or badly worn shingles point toward replacement instead.

It depends on the shingles underneath and the coating thickness. A coating cannot fix shingles that already curl or have lost their mat. Sun, hail, and freeze-thaw cycles wear the coated surface, so inspections after storms and spot repairs keep a coated shingle roof watertight.

We plan it with our coating range of about $2.50 to $4.00 per square foot. The number moves with how many damaged shingles need replacing, cleaning needs, coats required, and pitch. Steep or tall roofs need more safety setup, and that time adds to the job.

Offices, churches, clinics, and small retail centers with sloped asphalt roofs in fair shape are the usual candidates. These roofs often have solid decks under faded shingles. We check attic ventilation and deck condition first, since trapped moisture shortens shingle life.

Reshingling wins once shingles curl, crack when bent, or show bare mat across the slope, because a coating has nothing solid to hold. On a roof that still lies flat, coating keeps the shingles and underlayment in place with no tear-off. We say which side of that line your roof is on after the walk.

Steep roofs can be coated when the shingles qualify, with roof anchors, safety lines, and staging set for the pitch. That setup adds time on each side of the roof. The same gate applies as on any shingle roof: flat-lying shingles that still hold their granules, over a firm deck.
