What we sell, by family

The arithmetic

Restore or replace, side by side

Typical installed ranges drawn from published industry figures, not a quote. The roof's condition, how much wet insulation has to come out, access and region move the number; the cost calculator runs both over your roof's area.

Restore

Typical installed cost
Typically runs $3.50 to $7 per sq ft installed; acrylic systems sit toward the low end, silicone toward the high end
The existing roof
Stays in place; only the sections found wet are cut out and replaced
The building in use
Stays open while the coating goes on
Wet insulation
Found and confirmed with cores first, then cut out and replaced before any coating goes on
When it is the right call
The deck is sound, the membrane is largely intact, and the wet areas are few enough to cut out and replace

Tear off and replace

Typical installed cost
Typically runs $10 to $18 per sq ft installed; in Florida the wind code keeps it in the upper half of that range
The existing roof
Comes off, every layer, down to the deck
The building in use
Sections are opened to the weather as the old roof comes off
Wet insulation
Comes off with the rest of the roof, wet or dry
When it is the right call
Wet insulation runs across a large share of the roof, the membrane has failed through the field, or the deck is not sound (the building's engineer decides that)

Run the numbers

Restore, not replace

A new surface over the roof that is already there

Many low-slope roofs are torn off while the deck and insulation under them are still sound. A fluid-applied system goes over the existing roof instead and bonds to it as one continuous surface, with no laps in it. Applied over a sound, dry roof, a restoration system adds 10 to 15 years of service life.

  • Seams, fastener heads, curbs and penetrations detailed first, then the whole field coated
  • A lightweight system: ounces per square foot rather than pounds
  • White finish coats reflect sunlight and keep the roof surface cooler
  • What it does not do: replace a deck, dry out wet insulation or put slope on a roof that never had any

By roof type

The right system for each roof

What the roof is made of decides the preparation and the primer; how it drains decides the coating. Where the roof drains, an acrylic system: a base coat chosen for the substrate, then the finish coat. Where water stands, Silicone44 KST044300 (white) or KST044320 (gray), with no acrylic base coat under it on any roof. On every roof, an adhesion test patch settles whether the system holds.

  1. Metal: fasteners tightened, open laps fastened, rusted areas primed with KST034520 and laps striped; then the acrylic base and finish coats, or Silicone44 across the field
  2. EPDM: the wash primer KST038620, rinsed and dry; then the single-ply base coat KST041321 and an acrylic finish, or Silicone44 directly
  3. TPO, PVC and Hypalon: a pressure wash, then KST041321 and an acrylic finish. Weathered TPO and PVC also take Silicone44 directly after an adhesion test; Hypalon that holds water, ask us
  4. Built-up and modified bitumen: the MB base coat and an acrylic finish, or Silicone44 directly; newer asphalt takes Uniflex's Bleed Blocker Primer first, which we do not stock: ask us
  5. Spray foam and concrete: Silicone44 directly on sound foam or clean, cured concrete; under an acrylic finish, a base coat on foam, and the concrete primer and a base coat on concrete
  6. Silicone44 is made for areas where water stands, but it does not fix drainage: the roof still needs slope and working drains, and standing water means more upkeep over the years

Before you budget

Find out what is under the membrane: start with a scan

On an evening after a sunny day, once the sun has set, a drone flies a thermal camera over a commercial low-slope roof: wet insulation holds the day's heat longer than dry insulation, so it shows up warmer. You get a map with every area that looks wet outlined and measured in square feet, video from the flight and a written assessment. We fly only with the owner's go-ahead.

  • A screening read, not a diagnosis: the scan marks suspects; the cores confirm them
  • Suits insulated roofs under a membrane; ballasted, heavy-gravel, metal panel and white-coated roofs are surveyed another way

Questions

Prices, products and the next step

The FAQ page has the rest, and a person reads and answers every request.

How do I get a price?
Through the quote form: send the part numbers and quantities, or the roof type and the square footage, with your ZIP code. We reply within one business day with a written price for that project, the freight and the ship date. The roofing contractor prices the labor; the cost calculator shows what the installed job typically runs.
Can a building owner buy the materials directly?
Yes. Building owners and facility managers can buy the materials for their roof straight from us, at a good price, in writing. The materials are priced separately from the contractor's labor, so you see what each part of the job costs. We can introduce an installer anywhere in the US, or supply the materials to the roofing contractor you already use.
Can I order online?
Yes, by quote: there is no cart. Send the part numbers and quantities, from a single pail to drums, totes and pallets; the order is placed when you confirm the written price.
Are these genuine Sherwin-Williams products?
Yes. CoatYard is an authorized reseller of the Sherwin-Williams Uniflex roofing line. Every product is listed under its Sherwin-Williams part number and ships in the manufacturer's sealed packaging.
How long does a restored roof last?
Applied over a sound, dry roof, a restoration system adds 10 to 15 years of service life. A roof with wet insulation is not a candidate until that is cut out and replaced, which is why the roof is checked for moisture first, and a deck that is not sound is a question for the building's engineer.
Is there a warranty?
Sherwin-Williams offers UNIGUARD system warranties of 10 or 15 years when one of its authorized contractors applies the system. The warranty is the manufacturer's, issued under its own terms, and the manufacturer inspects the finished roof before it issues one; we supply the materials. The goods themselves carry our seller's warranty: they match their description and are free of manufacturing defects when delivered.
Do you apply the coating?
No. We work with a network of installers, roofing contractors who apply these systems, and can introduce you to one anywhere in the US, who looks at the roof and says whether it is a good candidate for restoration. If you already have a contractor, we quote the materials for them. Roofing contractors who apply these systems can ask to join the network through the quote form.
What is the drone moisture scan?
One of our offers for commercial low-slope roofs, anywhere in the US. On an evening after a sunny day, a drone with a thermal camera flies the roof, and wet insulation shows up warmer. You get a map with any areas that look wet outlined and measured in square feet, video from the flight and a written assessment; small cores then confirm the flagged areas. We quote the scan for your roof when you ask.
