Your August energy bill shouldn’t make you question your life choices. But when Buna temperatures hit 105°F and your AC runs nonstop, that’s exactly what happens.
Roof coatings fix this problem at the source. Homeowners typically see 15 to 30 percent reductions in cooling costs—that’s hundreds of dollars every summer, thousands over time. Your indoor spaces stay 10 to 15 degrees cooler without pushing your HVAC system harder.
The best part? You get these results without the chaos of roof replacement. No dumpsters, no weeks of construction, no weather worries. Just a proven solution that works with your existing roof to deliver real comfort and savings.
We’ve watched Buna roofs battle Texas weather for years. We know how the relentless sun degrades materials and drives up energy costs across Southeast Texas.
That experience shapes everything we do. While other contractors push expensive replacements, we often recommend roof coatings that deliver better results at lower cost. We’ve seen quality coatings add 10 to 20 years to roof life while cutting energy bills in half.
Our approach is straightforward: assess your roof honestly, recommend the right solution, and execute it properly. When you’re dealing with 100-degree days for months on end, your roof deserves expertise that understands local conditions.
We start with a comprehensive roof inspection. This reveals any underlying issues and confirms whether your roof is a good coating candidate. Most Buna roofs qualify, but we’ll give you an honest assessment either way.
Surface preparation comes next—and this step matters more than most people realize. We clean thoroughly, address any repairs, and ensure optimal coating adhesion. Proper prep work separates coatings that last two years from those that protect for decades.
Application typically takes two to four days, depending on roof size and weather. We use specialized equipment and proven techniques to ensure uniform coverage and proper thickness. You can stay home throughout the process, and we handle complete cleanup when finished.

Southeast Texas demands roof coatings that can handle intense UV exposure, thermal cycling, and occasional severe weather. We select materials specifically formulated for these challenges.
Our reflective coating systems can reduce roof surface temperatures by up to 50 degrees. This dramatic cooling effect protects roofing materials from thermal stress while significantly reducing heat transfer into your building. The result is lower energy costs and extended roof life.
In Buna’s climate, where summer heat creates unbearable attic conditions and sky-high utility bills, the right coating system pays for itself quickly. We’ve documented energy savings exceeding $1,000 annually for larger homes, making roof coatings one of the smartest investments you can make.
Buna homeowners typically see 15 to 30 percent reductions in cooling costs after professional roof coating application. For an average home, that translates to $300 to $800 in annual savings.
These savings result from dramatically cooler roof surfaces. When your roof reflects sunlight instead of absorbing it, indoor temperatures stay more comfortable with less AC usage. Over a coating’s 15 to 20-year lifespan, total savings often exceed $10,000—more than enough to cover the initial investment.
The exact amount depends on your home’s size, current roof condition, and energy usage patterns. We can provide specific estimates based on your situation during our inspection.
Quality roof coatings properly applied in Texas conditions typically last 15 to 20 years. The key factors are using materials designed for high UV exposure and ensuring correct surface preparation and application.
We use elastomeric coatings that expand and contract with temperature changes without cracking or failing. These advanced materials include UV stabilizers and thermal resistance properties specifically engineered for climates like ours. Many systems include warranties up to 20 years, providing long-term protection for your investment.
Regular maintenance—primarily keeping the surface clean and drains clear—helps maximize coating lifespan. Most homeowners find this minimal upkeep well worth the energy savings and roof protection they receive.
Absolutely. Roof coatings typically cost 40 to 60 percent less than complete roof replacement while delivering similar protective benefits. You eliminate demolition costs, disposal fees, and the expense of entirely new materials.
Beyond direct cost savings, coatings avoid the disruption of replacement projects. No dumpsters blocking your driveway, no weeks of construction noise, no risk of weather damage during installation. Most coating projects complete in three to five days with minimal impact on your daily routine.
For structurally sound roofs showing signs of aging or energy inefficiency, coatings often provide better value than replacement while extending useful life significantly.
Most common roof types are excellent candidates for coating systems, including metal roofing, modified bitumen, built-up roofing, and single-ply membranes. The critical factor is having a structurally sound roof without extensive damage.
During our inspection, we evaluate substrate condition, existing materials, roof age, and any previous repairs or modifications. Some roofs may need minor repairs before coating, but most residential and commercial roofs in Buna qualify for this treatment.
We’ll provide a detailed assessment of your roof’s suitability and explain any preparatory work needed. Our goal is ensuring optimal coating performance and longevity for your specific situation.
If your roof structure is sound and you’re not experiencing major leaks, coating is often the smarter choice. We look for indicators like surface wear, minor leaks, granule loss, or high energy costs—all issues that quality coatings address effectively.
Replacement becomes necessary when you have structural damage, multiple roofing layers, extensive deterioration, or repeated leak problems throughout the roof system. These conditions require more comprehensive solutions than coatings can provide.
During our evaluation, we’ll show you exactly what we observe and explain both options honestly. We recommend the solution that makes the most financial and practical sense for your specific circumstances.
Roof coatings require minimal maintenance, making them appealing for busy homeowners. Annual inspections help identify any issues early, but most systems need little attention between professional evaluations.
Keep gutters and drains clear of debris, remove any accumulated leaves or branches, and avoid walking on the coated surface unnecessarily. The coating’s reflective properties may diminish slightly over time due to dirt accumulation, but periodic cleaning restores performance.
Most coating systems are designed to be relatively self-maintaining through normal weather exposure. With basic care, your investment will continue delivering energy savings and roof protection for many years.
