Home » Waterproofing & Reflective Coatings
At Pioneer Roofing, we understand waterproofing inside and out. You’ll find we offer several waterproofing systems that can be applied over most built-up roofing systems. These coatings bond to your existing roof to form an impervious layer that not only keeps water out, but also adds architectural beauty by renewing the look of the roofing system. Make the smart choice of adding waterproofing to your roofing system.
Save energy and protect your roof with reflective roof coatings. Reflective roof coatings, also known as albedo coatings, are applied to roofs to reduce solar heat, especially in areas with hot, sunny weather for a good part of the year. Because they can reduce surface temperatures by up to 80ºf (about 45ºc), these products have a big impact on cooling costs. Reflective roof coatings have been found to save homeowners a minimum of 25% in energy usage. Another advantage of reflective roof coatings is that they contain uv-blocking pigments. U-V rays age a roof considerably, therefore the use of reflective roof coatings can extend the roof's life by up to 15 years, especially on buildings with low slope or flat roofs, which tend to absorb sun energy at a higher rate than slanted roofs. Since roof maintenance accounts for more than 80% of a building's total maintenance cost, any product that can extend roof life will result in substantial savings.
