Commercial Silicone Roof Coatings & Membrane Restoration
High-solids silicone and elastomeric fluid-applied coatings that restore an aging roof, eliminate leaks, and extend service life by 10-20 years without a tear-off.
10 to 20+ years (extendable indefinitely through maintenance recoats)
10, 15, and 20-year manufacturer labor & material warranties available
30+ Years Commercial Experience
Engineered commercial performance for Roof Coatings.
Roof coatings offer building owners a cost-effective alternative to a disruptive, expensive roof tear-off. By applying a seamless, fluid-applied high-solids silicone or acrylic elastomeric membrane over an existing structurally sound roof (TPO, EPDM, PVC, Mod-Bit, or Metal), Datum Roofing creates a monolithic, waterproof barrier that withstands ponding water, seals every seam, and reflects up to 90% of solar heat. Coating restorations can be 100% expensed in year one under tax incentives.
Why Property Owners Choose Roof Coatings
- Fraction of the cost of a full roof replacement (up to 50% savings)
- Zero tenant disruption — no noisy tear-off, dumpsters, or open-deck exposure
- Withstands permanent ponding water without softening or delaminating (silicone)
- Cool-roof reflectivity reduces cooling costs and equipment strain
- Classified as routine roof maintenance for favorable tax depreciation
Datum Installation Process
Substrate is power-washed, wet insulation is removed, all seams and penetrations are reinforced with mastic and polyester fabric, followed by high-solids silicone sprayed or rolled at 20-30 mils thickness.
Coastal Wind & Weather Engineering
Continuous chemical bond to the substrate eliminates wind-peel vulnerabilities along coastal perimeters.
Best Suited For
- Aging low-slope roofs with structurally sound insulation and decks
- Condo boards wanting to avoid large special assessments for tear-offs
- Commercial properties with active tenant operations that cannot be interrupted
- Rusted metal roofs needing seam waterproofing and rust encapsulation
Datum Roof Coatings Repair Capabilities
- Infrared moisture surveys to detect and replace wet insulation prior to coating
- Seam, fastener, and curb three-course reinforcement with polyester fabric
- High-pressure washing and specialized adhesion primers
- Recoat applications to maintain active manufacturer warranties
Our estimating process for Roof Coatings Projects: thorough by design, zero surprises.
With deep roots in engineering and structural restoration, Datum takes existing conditions seriously. In commercial roofing, change orders are often treated as business as usual — but to us, too many change orders are a black mark. Our estimating is always 100% free, but engineered to be exhaustive before work begins.
Only 6% of our roof replacements involve a change order.
That low rate is the direct result of core samples, deck verification, and moisture scans completed before we price the work.
Projects finish on time — and yes, we're proud of that .7%!
Detailed phasing, tenant coordination, and weather buffers keep condominium boards and owners on schedule.
Exhaustive existing condition analysis at no charge.
Full condition audit, core cuts, moisture maps, and written replacement vs. repair options for your board or management company.
1. Core sampling & deck verification
We take physical core cuts through the membrane to verify the exact assembly underneath — number of existing plies, insulation type and thickness, substrate condition, and deck type (concrete, metal, wood, gypsum). No guessing.
2. Thermal moisture scanning
Non-destructive electronic moisture meters and infrared thermal imaging map trapped moisture pockets across the roof deck so wet insulation is quantified before the proposal is written — not discovered during tear-off.
3. Ventilation & intake/exhaust analysis
We calculate intake, exhaust, and rooftop airflow dynamics to prevent condensation, pressure imbalance, and premature membrane failure. A low-slope roof without proper ventilation engineering traps moisture from below.
4. Structural condition & load review
Drawing on Lasher's 30+ years in structural restoration and engineering, we evaluate parapets, expansion joints, deck deflection, and drainage slopes so every structural constraint is solved in the upfront scope.
