A coating is a restoration product, and it only works on a roof that is dry and structurally sound underneath. That is why every coating quote we write for an Allen building starts with a moisture survey. Coatings restore sound roofs; they do not fix wet ones, and a contractor quoting a coating without checking is guessing with your money. The estimate is free and written, the survey findings come with photos, and if storm damage turns up along the way, we are clear that we do not waive deductibles under Texas law and do not act as a public adjuster.
Coating Decisions Under Allen’s Hail Record
Hail is the main reason coating timing matters in Allen. Stones an inch or larger have been recorded within 6 miles of the city on 27 days since 2006, in 13 of the last 20 years, and the biggest reached 4.5 inches on March 24, 2019. A coating applied over a membrane that already took hits can seal moisture into the assembly, so we look for impact damage and wet insulation before recommending anything. Once a coated roof is in place, a check after each golf-ball hail event (Allen has logged 12 of those days) keeps small breaks from spreading.
In a Collin County city where 66 percent of homes were built between 1980 and 2009, a lot of neighboring commercial roofs have reached the age where the moisture survey decides between restoration and replacement. Our coating crews also serve Plano and Parker.
