Why Silicone Roofing?
Silicone roofing systems have become one of the most popular commercial roof restoration options for good reason. Unlike acrylic coatings that can soften and wash away in standing water, silicone is completely unaffected by ponding water — making it the ideal choice for flat commercial roofs that don't drain perfectly.
Preferred Roofing installs silicone coating systems on commercial buildings throughout Oklahoma City and the surrounding area. Our certified applicators have the training and equipment to deliver a flawless, long-lasting silicone roof that will protect your building for years to come.
Silicone vs. Acrylic Coatings
Both silicone and acrylic are popular commercial roof coating options, but they have important differences:
- Ponding Water Resistance: Silicone is completely waterproof and unaffected by standing water. Acrylic coatings can re-emulsify and wash away if water ponds on the roof for extended periods.
- UV Resistance: Silicone has excellent UV resistance and won't chalk, crack, or degrade from sun exposure. Acrylic may require more frequent recoating in high-UV environments.
- Temperature Flexibility: Silicone remains flexible across a wide temperature range, from extreme cold to intense heat — important for Oklahoma's climate swings.
- Cost: Silicone typically costs more than acrylic per square foot, but its superior durability and longevity often make it more cost-effective over the life of the roof.
Applications for Silicone Roofing
Silicone roofing systems are particularly well-suited for:
- Flat roofs with drainage issues or areas prone to ponding water
- Roofs in high-UV environments where coating longevity is critical
- Buildings where minimal maintenance is a priority
- Restoration of existing spray foam roofing systems
- Any commercial building where maximum waterproofing is required
Extending the Life of Existing Membrane Roofs
One of the most cost-effective applications for silicone coatings is restoring aging membrane roof systems. TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen, and other single-ply membranes have a finite service life — but when a membrane roof starts to show its age, full replacement is not always the only option.
When the membrane is still structurally sound but showing signs of wear, weathering, or minor leaking, a professionally applied silicone coating system can restore full waterproofing performance and extend the life of the existing roof by 10 to 20 years or more. The silicone bonds directly to the membrane surface, sealing seams, laps, and penetrations while adding a highly reflective, UV-resistant layer over the entire roof.
Compared to a full tear-off and replacement, a silicone membrane restoration typically costs a fraction of the price — and eliminates the disruption, landfill waste, and downtime associated with a complete reroof. For many building owners, it is the smartest financial decision they can make for an aging roof that still has structural integrity.
Preferred Roofing will inspect your existing membrane and give you an honest assessment of whether a silicone restoration is a viable option for your building. Not every roof is a candidate, but when the conditions are right, it is hard to beat the value.
Our Silicone Roofing Process
Our silicone roofing installation follows a proven process to ensure maximum adhesion, coverage, and longevity. We begin with a thorough inspection and cleaning of the existing roof surface, address any problem areas, apply a primer if required, and then apply the silicone coating to the manufacturer's specified thickness.
