Frequently Asked Questions About Roof Coatings
How long do commercial roof coatings last?
Most coatings last 10–20 years depending on the system, roof condition, and maintenance.
Can any roof be coated?
No. The existing roof must be structurally sound and dry. Our team performs a full assessment before recommending coatings.
Are roof coatings a substitute for a full replacement?
Only if the underlying roof is in good enough condition. If not, replacement may be the safer long-term option.
What’s the difference between silicone and acrylic coatings?
Silicone handles ponding water better and offers stronger UV resistance. Acrylic is more cost-effective and highly reflective.
Does a coating qualify for a warranty?
Yes — most manufacturers offer warranties when applied by certified contractors under proper conditions.

What Are Commercial Roof Coatings?
Commercial roof coatings are fluid-applied, seamless protective membranes designed to restore and improve existing roofing systems. They are most commonly used on TPO, EPDM, PVC, metal, modified bitumen, and older flat roofs that need added protection.
Baker Roofing installs several high-performance coating types:
Silicone Roof Coatings — ideal for UV stability, ponding water resistance, and long-term durability
Acrylic Roof Coatings — cost-effective and reflective, great for improving energy efficiency
Elastomeric Roof Coatings — flexible and watertight, designed to handle expansion and contraction
Coatings are an excellent alternative to a costly tear-off when the existing roof is structurally sound.
