The ALDOCOAT Modified Bitumen Restoration System, a polyurethane base coat and silicone finish coat has been very effective for both granulated and smooth modified bitumen roof restoration. Once these “modbits” start leaking and showing signs of aging, the building owner or facility manager now has a very cost effective alternative to a complete tear off and reroof. This ALDOCOAT system is installed with no business interruption and the total cost can be expensed in the year it is completed, as opposed to a new roof having to be amortized over its life of 20 years or more.

Restoration of Modified Bitumen Roofs and Reflective Coatings

When restoring roofs, many facility managers have decided to utilize reflective, white in color “cool roof” coatings as a means of reflecting heat and UV rays. Reflective coatings reduce roof temperatures during peak cooling seasons, resulting in less heat transfer into the building and savings in energy costs for many buildings. Additionally, the cost can expensed in the year it is installed, providing significant tax savings.
