Learn how reflective roof coatings benefit structures in the short- and long-term. 

Roof restorations are popular for the savings they can offer in comparison to roof replacements. For building owners, homeowners and property managers looking into roof restoration, they will find that those savings happen both in the short-term and the long-term. Immediately, restoration is cheaper than replacement as there are fewer material costs, there are tax advantages to restoring and there are far fewer disposal costs. Then, in the long-term, restorations can create savings by reducing utility and energy costs over time. 

APOC, a member of the ICP Group, has a variety of restoration systems that can dramatically cool roofs, lower heat transfer from the roof into the building, reduce the energy consumption of the building and extend the lifespan of the roof. Keep reading this article to learn more about how a reflective roof coating can do all that! 

Radiant heat and powerful UV rays cause thermal shock and rapid deterioration of all roofing materials at the molecular level. This constant exposure results in accelerated aging, lost flexibility, fatigue, splits and cracks and ultimately roof membrane failure. Heat build-up on a roof can also lead to increased building temperatures, building discomfort, unproductive employees and increased energy consumption and costs. 

Cool roof systems drastically reduce roof temperatures, thermal shock and roof maintenance requirements. In addition, they extend roof life, improve building comfort and substantially reduce cooling costs. In fact, we refer to cool roof systems as an asset that can provide a return on your investment. 

A 2016 study from Concordia University shows that any improvement to a roof that limits the summertime solar heat gain actually results in energy cost savings for the building owner, as well as a reduction in the building's overall environmental impact. 

APOC’s unique roof restoration process can significantly extend your roof life and in many cases double or triple the remaining life of a roof membrane. This additional value provides improved life cycle costing and a sustainable roof membrane that is easy to maintain. APOC’s time-tested systems and innovative technologies have received several patents and offer proven, sustainable options for your building. Our unique systems offer material and labor warranty options backed by one of the nation’s oldest and largest roofing materials manufacturers.
