Modified bitumen roof coating extends the life of the torch-down and cold-process roofs you see on so many strip centers and small commercial buildings in San Jose, CA. Mod bit fails slowly. Granules wash off, the asphalt underneath dries out in the sun, and cracks start at the laps.

Asphalt roofs have one quirk that trips up a lot of coating jobs: bleed-through. Oils in the asphalt can migrate up and stain a white top coat brown. We use a bleed-blocking base coat on mod bit to stop that, and it is a step we do not skip.

Before coating, our crew cuts out any blisters, re-adheres open laps, and repairs splits with fabric and mastic. Loose granules get blown off. Then the base coat, then the top coat, built to the thickness the manufacturer specs.

A modified bitumen roof coating in San Jose, CA changes a dark roof into a reflective one and gives the old membrane a new UV shield. If the roof has many blisters or wet insulation, we will tell you, and in that case a coating is not the right fix. For water that sits on the roof, see ponding water repair. Call (833) 441-4944.

Commercial Roof Coating FAQs

Questions about commercial roof coating and silicone roof restoration

Questions we hear about Modified Bitumen Roof Coating in San Jose, CA.

Call our crew
Do you coat metal roofs?
Yes. Metal roof coating and rust restoration is one of our most common jobs. We treat rust, replace or seal fasteners, reinforce laps with fabric and then coat the whole roof.
Can a roof coating be expensed instead of capitalized?
In many cases a restoration coating is treated as maintenance rather than a capital improvement, which can change how it is handled for taxes. That is a question for your accountant, and we can give them the scope of work and product data they need.
Can you coat a roof that holds water?
Silicone tolerates ponding water better than other coatings, but water that sits for more than 48 hours should be dealt with. We can reset drains, add crickets or build slope before coating.
Do you need to shut down my building?
No. Coating work happens on the roof and the building stays closed. We phase the job around your hours and keep overspray and odor under control around air intakes.
What roof types can be coated?
We coat metal, TPO, EPDM, PVC, modified bitumen, built-up roofs and spray foam. Each needs its own cleaning and primer steps, and we run an adhesion test on your roof before committing.
