Re Roofing vs. Re Coating/Restoration With Roofing & Coatings

There are several obvious benefits associated with re roofing, as opposed to re coating or restoration work, and one of the main benefits of re roofing with Roofing and Coatings is that the costs associated with re coating are now higher, due to the scaffold/edge protection required. There is also the important matter of longevity, with re coatings lasting for around five to ten years, as opposed to a 30 year longevity with re roofing.

Also, changing from a concrete roof to a light weight metal roof is beneficial to the house structure, and the fact that insulation can be inserted at the time of re roofing makes it a lot more beneficial option. Add to that the fact that a heavy roof is certainly not desirable in earthquake prone regions, so re roofing with a lighter metal roof makes a lot of sense.
