What it actually is

Liquid rubber.
One seamless skin.

Elastic rubber coatings — you'll also see them called elastomeric or rubberized coatings — are thick liquid-applied waterproofing membranes. They go on wet and cure into a single continuous rubber layer with no seams, laps or fasteners to leak.

Where it works

Built for the
surfaces shingles can't cover.

If water is sitting, seams are opening or metal is rusting, a rubber coating is usually the right tool.

APP-01

Flat & Low-Slope
Roofs

Ponding water, tired modified bitumen, failing rolled roofing. A seamless membrane where standing water finds every weak seam.

APP-02

Metal Roofs
& Buildings

Barns, shops and commercial metal. We seal rusting panels, open laps and thousands of exposed fastener heads at once.

APP-03

Mobile &
Manufactured Homes

The classic candidate. Coating a mobile home or RV roof stops chronic leaks and cuts the heat that pours through a thin deck.

APP-04

Gutters, Flashing
& Details

Box gutters, valleys, curbs, vents and pipe boots — the spots that leak first get a reinforced, brush-applied treatment.

APP-05

Concrete
& Masonry

Foundations, parapet walls, block and stucco. A flexible waterproof layer that keeps moisture out of porous surfaces.

APP-06

Patios, Decks
& Awnings

Covered patios, carports and porch roofs where a small leak turns into a stained ceiling and rotted framing.

How it goes on

Prep is the job.
The coating is
the easy part.

Any coating fails if it's rolled over dirt, rust or a wet deck. Ours goes on a surface that's been cleaned, repaired and primed first.

R-01InspectFree inspection: we find the leaks, probe for soft decking and check whether coating is honestly the right call

Elongation on high-stretch elastomeric systems. That's how a coating moves with a roof for years instead of splitting the first hot summer.

  • Seamless membrane — nothing to unzip at a lap
  • Reflective white finish to cut surface heat
  • Rust & UV protection for exposed metal
  • Rolled, brushed or sprayed to fit the surface
  • Recoatable — no tear-off, ever, if it's maintained

Straight answers

Coating
questions answered.

Q-01

What is an elastic rubber coating?

+

An elastic rubber coating — also called an elastomeric or rubberized coating — is a thick liquid-applied waterproofing membrane. It goes on by roller, brush or sprayer and cures into one seamless rubber skin over the whole surface. Because it stays flexible, it expands and contracts with the roof instead of cracking, which is what keeps the seal watertight through Louisiana heat and cold snaps.

Q-02

What kind of roof can be coated?

+

Flat and low-slope roofs, metal roofs and metal buildings, mobile and manufactured homes, RV and trailer roofs, modified bitumen and rolled roofing, plus concrete, masonry, patios, gutters and flashing details. It is not a substitute for shingles on a steep-slope shingle roof — if that's what you have, we'll tell you straight and quote the right fix instead.

Q-03

How long does an elastic rubber roof coating last?

+

It depends on the product, the film thickness and the condition of the roof underneath. A properly prepped roof coated at full spec — typically a 10 to 20 mil dry film, often in two coats — generally gives you many years of service, and it can be recoated later without a tear-off. Your written quote spells out the system, the number of coats and the manufacturer's warranty terms.

Q-04

Will a rubber coating stop an active leak?

+

Usually yes, when the deck underneath is still sound. The coating bridges pinholes, seams, fastener heads and hairline cracks and seals them under one continuous membrane. If we find wet insulation or rotted decking during the free inspection, that gets repaired first — coating over rot just hides the problem, and we won't do it.

Q-05

Does a rubber roof coating lower cooling bills?

+

A bright white or reflective elastic coating reflects a large share of the sun's energy instead of absorbing it, so the roof surface runs cooler and less heat pushes into the building. In a Central Louisiana summer that usually shows up as a more comfortable building and less strain on the AC. Actual savings depend on your insulation, ductwork and equipment.

Q-06

Is it cheaper than replacing the roof?

+

In most cases, yes — there's no tear-off, no dumpster and far less labor, so a coating typically costs a fraction of a full replacement. But it only makes sense if the structure and decking are sound. We inspect for free and give you an honest answer either way: coat it, repair it, or replace it.

Q-07

Do you coat roofs outside Alexandria?

+

Yes. We coat roofs across Central Louisiana — Alexandria, Pineville, Ball, Tioga, Boyce, Woodworth and the surrounding parishes. Give us a call and we'll tell you if you're in range.
