  • What are roof coating systems, and why should I consider them for my commercial building?

    Roof coating systems are specialized protective coatings applied to existing roofs to extend their life, improve energy efficiency, and provide a seamless, waterproof barrier. For commercial buildings, they are a cost-effective alternative to a full roof replacement, reducing downtime and maintenance costs while boosting performance and sustainability.

  • How does a roof coating system compare to a roof replacement?

    Roof coatings are less invasive, faster to apply, and far more cost-effective than a complete roof replacement. Rather than tearing off the existing roof, which can be expensive and disruptive, roof coatings are applied directly onto the roof surface, prolonging its life and enhancing its performance.

  • What types of roof coatings does Gen-Vet offer?

    At Gen-Vet, we specialize in high-performance silicone roof coatings, acrylic coatings, and urethane coatings. Each type offers unique benefits such as UV resistance, durability, waterproofing, and energy savings. Our experts will recommend the best solution based on your roof type and specific needs.

  • How long does a roof coating last?

    Depending on the type of coating used and the condition of your roof, our coatings typically last 10-20 years. Regular maintenance and reapplication as needed can further extend the life of your roof.

  • Can roof coatings be applied to any commercial roof?

    Roof coatings are versatile and can be applied to a wide variety of commercial roofing materials, including metal, single-ply membranes (like TPO or EPDM), modified bitumen, and more. Our team will evaluate your roof to ensure it’s suitable for coating.

  • How does a silicone roof coating improve energy efficiency?

    Silicone coatings are highly reflective, meaning they bounce back a significant amount of solar heat. This reduces the need for air conditioning, especially in warmer climates, which can lead to substantial energy savings. Additionally, the coating’s white or light-colored surface can lower the roof’s temperature, reducing the heat island effect.

  • Will a roof coating stop leaks?

    Yes! Roof coatings create a seamless, waterproof barrier that can seal small cracks, holes, and other vulnerabilities, preventing leaks. However, if your roof has significant damage, repairs may be required before the coating is applied.

  • How long does the installation process take?

    Most roof coating applications can be completed in just a few days, depending on the size of the roof and the weather conditions. This quick process minimizes disruption to your business operations and provides a fast return on investment.

  • Is the roof coating process disruptive to my business?

    Not at all. Since roof coatings are applied directly to the existing roof without the need for major tear-offs, there’s minimal noise, debris, or disruption to your day-to-day business activities. In most cases, you can continue operations as usual.

  • Are roof coatings environmentally friendly?

    Yes, roof coatings help reduce waste by avoiding the need for roof tear-offs and replacements. Many coatings, such as silicone, are VOC-compliant and help lower a building’s carbon footprint by improving energy efficiency. Additionally, coatings reflect UV rays, reducing the heat absorbed by the roof.

  • Do roof coatings qualify for tax incentives or energy rebates?

    In many cases, yes! Energy-efficient roof coatings can qualify for various tax incentives or energy rebates, depending on local and federal programs. We recommend checking with a tax advisor or energy consultant to determine eligibility in your area.

  • How do I maintain a roof coating once it’s applied?

    Roof coatings are generally low-maintenance. We recommend annual inspections to check for any signs of wear or damage, especially after severe weather. Small issues can be easily repaired, and periodic recoating will ensure your roof remains protected.

  • Is there a warranty on Gen-Vet roof coating systems?

    Absolutely. We stand behind the quality of our work and offer warranties ranging from 10 to 20 years, depending on the type of coating applied. Our team will discuss the specific warranty options available for your project.

  • What is the cost of a roof coating system?


    The cost varies depending on the size of your roof, the type of coating chosen, and the condition of the existing roof. However, roof coatings are typically more affordable than a full replacement, offering a cost-effective solution with long-term benefits.
