When compared to re-roofing

our method has the following advantages:

a
Re-roofing: Typical re-roofing can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks depending on the size and complexity of the project. Let's assume an average re-roofing project takes 10 days.
b
GacoS400 Application: The GacoS400 silicone coating can usually be applied in 1-3 days, depending on the roof's condition and size. Let's assume it takes 2 days for the GacoS400 application.
c
In this example, time saved is 8 days.
a
Cost of Re-roofing: Re-roofing costs vary widely based on materials, labor, and the size of the roof. Let's assume re-roofing costs $10 per square foot. For a 10,000 square foot roof, the cost would be 10,000 * $10 = $100,000.
b
Cost of GacoS400 Application: The GacoS400 coating typically costs around $1.50 - $2.00 per square foot, including labor. Let's assume it costs $1.75 per square foot. For a 10,000 square foot roof, the cost would be 10,000 * $1.75 = $17,500.
c
In this example, cost saved = $100,000 - $17,500 = $82,500
a
Energy Savings: The GacoS400 silicone coating is highly reflective and can reduce cooling costs by reflecting more sunlight and reducing the heat absorbed by the building. Energy savings can be around 10-30% of cooling costs annually. Let's assume an average energy saving of 20%.
b
Annual Cooling Costs: Let's assume the building has annual cooling costs of $50,000.
c
In this example, annual energy savings = 20% of $50,000 = $10,000

Summary

These calculations are based on assumptions and averages, and actual savings can vary based on specific project details and local conditions

Time Saved: 8 days

Cost Saved: $82,500

Future Annual Energy Savings: $10,000

FAQ

01. What material does the coating consist of?

Our coating is silicone-based and consists of 37% recycled materials.

02. What is silicone-based coating?

Silicone-based coatings are a type of elastomeric roof coating made from silicone polymers. They provide several benefits, including:

  • Waterproofing: Excellent resistance to water and moisture.
  • UV Resistance: Protects the roof from sun damage.
  • Temperature Flexibility: Remains flexible and intact under extreme temperatures.
  • Longevity: Can extend the life of the roof by several years.
  • Environmental Resistance: Resistant to mold, mildew, and staining.
03. Why not re-roofing?
  • Cost-Effective: Coating a roof is generally less expensive than a full roof replacement.
  • Less Disruptive: Application of a coating is quicker and less disruptive to the building occupants.
  • Sustainability: Extends the life of the existing roof, reducing waste.
  • Energy Efficiency: Silicone coatings can reflect sunlight, reducing cooling costs.
  • Ease of Maintenance: Coated roofs require less maintenance and are easier to repair if issues arise.
  • Performance: Silicone coatings provide excellent waterproofing and UV protection, often superior to traditional roofing materials.

Using a silicone coating like Gaco S4200 can be a practical and efficient solution to extend the life of a roof and maintain its protective qualities without the need to re roof. 

04. How long does it endure?

In ideal circumstances, a Gaco S4200 silicone roof coating can last 30 years or more. Proper preparation, application, and maintenance are crucial to achieving this longevity. Regular inspections and minor touch-ups as needed can help maximize the lifespan of the coating.

05. On which surfaces does it work best?

The Gaco S4200 series silicone roof coating is known for its exceptional adhesion to a wide variety of surfaces. Specifically, it can adhere to:

  1. Metal
  2. Concrete
  3. Modified bitumen
  4. Single-ply membranes (e.g., EPDM, TPO, PVC)
  5. Spray polyurethane foam
  6. Aged asphalt
  7. Granular cap sheet
  8. Wood
  9. Asphalt shingles
  10. Built-up roofs (BUR)
  11. Smooth surface roofs

This list covers the most common types of roofing substrates, but the exact number may vary based on the specific product data sheet and additional surface preparation requirements. Always refer to the product's technical data sheet for the most accurate and detailed information.

06. How do I save money with it?

GacoFlex S4200 is a high-performance, solvent-free silicone coating designed to provide long-term protection for various types of roofs. It can save you money over the lifetime of your roof in several ways:

  1. Extended Roof Life: By applying GacoFlex S4200, you can extend the life of your existing roof. This reduces the need for frequent roof replacements, which can be costly.
  2. Energy Efficiency: The white color of the silicone coating reflects UV rays, reducing heat absorption. This can lower cooling costs by keeping the building cooler, especially in warm climates.
  3. Maintenance Costs: The coating provides a seamless, waterproof barrier that resists ponding water and reduces the risk of leaks. This minimizes maintenance and repair costs associated with water damage.
  4. Labor and Material Costs**: Installing a silicone coating is less labor-intensive than a full roof replacement. It also uses fewer materials, leading to cost savings on both labor and materials.
  5. Durability: GacoFlex S4200 is resistant to weathering, UV radiation, and temperature extremes, providing long-term durability and reducing the frequency of reapplications.
  6. Warranty: GacoFlex S4200 often comes with a long-term warranty, offering peace of mind and financial protection against potential issues.

By investing in GacoFlex S4200, you can achieve significant cost savings over the lifespan of your roof through enhanced durability, energy efficiency, and reduced maintenance needs.

07. How long does installation take?

The installation of Gaco S4200 silicone coating can vary depending on the size and complexity of the roof, but generally, it is quicker than other roofing systems for several reasons:

  1. Single-Coat Application: Unlike many other roofing systems that require multiple coats, Gaco S4200 is designed for a single-coat application, reducing the time needed for multiple layers to dry and be applied.
  2. Quick Drying Time: Gaco S4200 has a relatively quick drying time, allowing for faster job completion compared to coatings that take longer to cure.
  3. No Primer Required: In many cases, Gaco S4200 can be applied directly to the roof without the need for a primer, which eliminates an additional step in the process.
  4. Ease of Application: The silicone coating can be easily applied using a roller or spray, which speeds up the application process.
  5. Immediate Waterproofing: Once applied, Gaco S4200 provides immediate waterproofing, reducing delays due to weather conditions and allowing the roof to be protected right away.

Due to these factors, the installation of Gaco S4200 can be completed more quickly than traditional roofing systems, often in a matter of days rather than weeks.

08 - Is access to the building required?

Access may be required during initial assessment to determine major points of ingress to indicate to our consultants the severity of the water ingress problem and the scope of work to execute the solution.
