Commercial Roof Coatings in Denver & the Front Range

Skyline Commercial Roofing provides commercial roof coating services across Denver and the Front Range, applying silicone roof coatings that waterproof, reflect heat and extend the life of aging flat roofs without a tear-off. A roof coating is a fluid-applied membrane that cures into a seamless, waterproof layer over your existing roof. For a structurally sound roof, it can restore performance with significantly lower cost than a roof replacement. As one of the top roof coating contractors in Denver, we offer warranties for up to 20 years.

Commercial Roof Coating Services

Our roof coating services cover the most common commercial roof types in Colorado, from flat membrane roofs to metal. As a certified installer, we provide long term warranties for up to 20 years on roof coating projects that in most cases can save over 50% of the cost of a full roof replacement.

Silicone Roof Coating

Silicone roof coatings are our primary coating system. Silicone forms a seamless, UV-stable membrane that holds up well under ponding water and Colorado’s high-altitude sun, which makes it a strong fit for flat and low-slope commercial roofs. Skyline installs Gaco silicone roof coating systems.

Flat Roof Coating

Roof coatings for flat roofs restore aging TPO, EPDM, PVC and modified bitumen roofs. After cleaning and repairing seams, flashing and damaged areas, we apply a continuous coating that seals the entire surface, including the seams and penetrations where most flat roof leaks start.

Metal Roof Coating

Metal roof coatings seal fasteners and seams, stop rust from spreading, and add a reflective, waterproof layer to aging metal roofs, extending their life without panel replacement.

Benefits of a Commercial Roof Coating

A roof coating protects the roof you already have instead of replacing it which typically saves tens of thousands of dollars which is why property managers and HOA boards often choose this option if the roof qualifies for a roof coating.

Roof Waterproofing Without a Tear-Off

A waterproof roof coating seals the entire surface in one seamless layer, including seams, fasteners and penetrations. Because the roof coating is applied over the existing roof, there's no tear-off, which means less debris for the landfill and less disruption for your customers and occupants.

Reflective, Energy-Efficient Surface

White and reflective roof coatings bounce sunlight away from the building instead of absorbing it, lowering roof surface temperatures and reducing cooling demand in summer. This is especially beneficial in the high elevation of Colorado.

Longer Roof Life

With roof coatings, there are no seams that can degrade with weather and the coating shields the underlying roof from UV, weathering and water, extending its service life. Many silicone systems can be recoated at the end of their service life rather than torn off which makes roof coatings a viable long term investment.

Minimal Disruption

Coating work is typically quieter and faster than replacement, and in most cases your building stays open throughout the project since there is no heavy equipment, dumpsters or trash being disposed of on the side of your building.

Gaco Silicone Roof Coating Systems

Skyline installs Gaco silicone roof coating systems on commercial, multifamily and HOA properties. Gaco silicone is a high-solids silicone coating designed for low-slope roofs, and it’s applied as a seamless membrane over the prepared existing roof.

Commercial Roof Replacement FAQs

A commercial roof coating is a fluid-applied membrane, such as silicone, that’s sprayed or rolled onto an existing roof and cures into a seamless, waterproof layer. It restores the roof surface, reflects sunlight and extends service life without a tear-off.

Silicone is one type of elastomeric roof coating. “Elastomeric” describes any coating that stretches and recovers with temperature changes, including silicone, acrylic and polyurethane. Silicone stands out for its UV resistance and its performance under ponding water, which is why it’s common on flat commercial roofs.

No. Roof paint is a thin decorative or reflective layer. A commercial roof coating is applied at a much greater thickness to form a waterproof membrane that protects the roof.

Yes, when the leaks come from the surface, seams or flashing and the roof underneath is sound. We repair damaged areas first, then seal the whole roof. If leaks have saturated the insulation, flat roof replacement is usually the better fix.
Service life depends on the coating thickness, the roof’s condition and maintenance. [Verify: expected service life and warranty terms for the Gaco system Skyline installs.] Many silicone systems can be recoated at the end of their life rather than torn off.

Cost depends on roof size, condition, the repairs needed before coating, and the coating thickness specified. A coating is typically less expensive than full roof replacement. A free inspection gives you an accurate written price.
