Gacopro Roof Coating

GacoPro Roof Coating is a silicone roof paint for pitched and flat roofs. It can be used any time of year and guarantees a waterproofed roof for 20 years. GacoPro Roof Coating is a liquid coating that can be applied without a primer to asphalt, asbestos, steel, concrete, lead, fibreglass, modified bitumen, plastisol, aged or weathered felt and most existing roof coatings, among others. Applying GacoPro to a roof or gutter is an economical way to extend the life of the surface, without needing to totally reinstall.

Using GacoPro Roof Coating in Solar Reflective White will reflect a high percentage of the sun’s rays, therefore reducing damage caused by UV rays, which again extends the life of the roof surface. It is also available in Light Grey and permanently protects the roof from leaks, severe weather and ponding water.

Emergency Roof Repairs­

To repair cracks and areas that are letting water in, Everbuild Evercryl One Coat can be used as an emergency roof coating treatment. With a high level of fibre re-enforcement, Evercryl only needs one coat application to seal cracks and waterproof the roof or surface.

For a kit that can quickly and easily repair leaks and areas that are letting in water, Rust-Oleum Waterproof kit is a good buy. You can even use it while the weather is bad, to make sure that any leaks in your roof don’t get any worse! Rust-Oleum Waterproof is a water sealant with fibres. It immediately waterproofs roofs, felt, slate, asphalt, hard PVC, glass, tiles and aluminium, among other surfaces. You can also buy the Rust-Oleum Waterpoof Roof Paint in single tins. ­­­Other products in this range include Rust-Oleum LeakSeal and Rust-Oleum Leak Stop, both designed to quickly and effectively repair leaks and cracks, making them watertight and sealing them from any water damage.

3M Scotchkote Knitted Reinforcing Mat can be used for emergency repairs on gaps or cracks. This reinforcing fleece can also be used for joint reinforcement.

Pitched and Flat Roof Repairs

We have various products that can be used on both pitched and flat roofs. 803 Smooth Waterproof Roof Coating is a smooth and seamless waterproof coating for general maintenance on pitched roofs. It’s available in various colours and as a Solar Reflective coating to further extend the lifespan of the roof.

A product specifically designed for flat roofs is Rust-Oleum Mathys Dacfill HZ. It is a water-based system with a built in fleece. It’s waterproof and promises to seal against ponding water within just one hour of application. It can be applied on almost any substrate and has a 15 year life expectancy. This flat roof coating resists UV radiation, heat, frost and pollution and can withstand major changes in temperature.

Solar Reflective Paints

There are various reflective paints in our product portfolio, specially developed to reduce the damaging effects of solar heat on roofs. Blackfriar Professional Solar Reflective Paint is specifically formulated to be used on dark coloured roofs. It can be used on metal, concrete, brick, bitumen and many more surfaces. It is self-priming, needs two coats and is for outdoor use only.

Coo-Var Solar Reflective Paint White is a bright white acrylic aggregated roof coating. It works by deflecting sunlight to lessen heat build-up inside and outside a building.  It’s suitable for stable felt, wood, brick and concrete but can’t be used on roofs that often have standing water.

Glass Coatings

If you are looking for a protective product for glass or other clear materials that are used in roof lights, then try 3M Scotchkote Urethane Glass Coating 065. This single component liquid acts as an anti-shatter coating.
