Reflective Roof Coatings

At Butcher & Butcher Construction, we specialize in high-performance reflective roof coatings that not only extend the life of your roof but also deliver measurable energy savings. Whether you’re maintaining a commercial building or protecting your home, a reflective coating is one of the smartest upgrades you can make to reduce heat absorption, lower interior temperatures, and minimize long-term roofing costs.

With more than 50 years of experience in the roofing industry, we’ve seen firsthand how proper coatings can transform the durability and efficiency of a roof. Our team is proud to offer this service across Rochester Hills, Harbor Springs, Pompano Beach, and everywhere in between.

What Is a Reflective Roof Coating?

Reflective roof coatings are fluid-applied membranes designed to reflect sunlight and UV rays away from your roof. These coatings are typically white or light-colored and are engineered to reduce the surface temperature of your roof by up to 50 degrees Fahrenheit. By reflecting the sun’s energy rather than absorbing it, your building stays cooler, and your roof materials last longer.

Benefits of Reflective Roof Coatings

A professionally applied roof coating offers several key advantages:

  • Improved Energy Efficiency: Lower your cooling costs in warm months by reducing heat gain through the roof.
  • Extended Roof Lifespan: Protects against UV rays, thermal expansion, and moisture — common causes of premature aging.
  • Seamless Waterproof Barrier: Most coatings seal minor cracks and gaps, helping prevent leaks.
  • Sustainable Option: Avoid full roof tear-offs and reduce landfill waste by restoring your existing roof.
  • Cost Savings: Compared to replacement, coating is significantly more affordable with far less disruption to daily operations.

Ideal for Commercial and Flat Roof Systems

Reflective coatings are most commonly used on flat or low-slope roofs which are prone to heat absorption and water pooling. If you manage a facility, warehouse, office building, or multi-family property, this is an investment that pays off quickly in operational savings.

Our commercial roofing experts will assess your roof’s current condition, slope, and material type before recommending the best reflective solution.
