StormBear applies roof coatings to restore flat roofs that are still sound, for homes and buildings across Chicago and the nearby suburbs. Your next step is to book a free inspection so we can tell you whether your roof is a good candidate.
A coating quote depends on whether the flat roof is a good candidate, so it is written up after the inspection. The estimate accounts for roof condition, preparation, repairs and the coating system recommended for your flat roof.
Coating work usually requires a suitable dry-weather window for preparation, application and curing. Roof size, repair needs, temperature and product requirements influence the schedule, and rain or cold conditions may postpone application rather than justify rushing it.
Coating is a restoration option for a roof that remains sound, not a replacement for failed underlying materials. If inspection reveals widespread deterioration or moisture problems, repairs or torch-down replacement may be more appropriate than covering the surface.
Will a coating fix standing water?
A coating does not change roof slope or automatically resolve blocked drainage. We evaluate low areas and outlets first, because product selection alone cannot correct the physical reason water remains on the roof.
How do you choose between silicone and acrylic?
The choice depends on the existing roof surface, drainage conditions and the requirements of the proposed product. We explain compatibility and preparation needs in the recommendation rather than assuming either coating is suitable for every flat roof.
Are the related projects examples of coating installations?
The linked projects show torch-down repair and gutter apron installation, not coating installations.
Can a reflective coating guarantee lower utility bills?
A reflective surface can reduce solar heat gain at the roof, but indoor results depend on insulation, building use and other conditions. We do not promise a particular energy saving from coating alone.
