Silicone Cool Roofs are rapidly becoming the roof of choice for NYC residents. An Inexpensive Durable Seamless Membrane that waterproofs your existing roof. You are allowed by law to install over existing roof with out a permit and 10-20 year warranties are available from the manufacturer. Silicone Roof Advantages Why Silicone? - Silicone is an inert material. It does not react with other chemicals. It is not affected by extreme temperatures and does not break down in UV light. How it Works - We repair your existing roof as needed, then clean with a powerful detergent and a power washer. Then we apply a two part epoxy primer designed to create a mechanical bond. All existing seams/flashing are treated with a fiber reinforced Silicone coating. We cover your entire roof with 22-46 Dry Mils of 100% solvent free Silicone. Save Money and Avoid Costly Tear-Offs - If you already have two layers of roofing material on your roof, you are required by law to tear-off your existing roof before adding a new one. This will require getting a permit. With our restoration system you can cover your existing roof with a 10-20 year warranty. The cost is half that of a new roof and no permits are necessary. Our Silicone roof is the last roofing system your building will ever need. History Established in 2005. My is Greg Kowalski and I have been involved in my families international industrial coatings and water proofing business for the last 22 years. Working in Europe, Asia and the United States I have been exposed to a wide variety of products and applications. Six years ago while working with one supplier of the silicone roofing product I asked, " why isn't everyone using this product In on existing flat roofs?" My supplier didn't have an answer. Three years later I found a different supplier that was pushing this product in New York and offering manufacture's warranties. Gaco Western has been around for 60 years so this is the type of company you want backing your roof! Oh, and don't forget the environment. Cool roofs lower cooling costs, combat Heat island effect, and reflect light back into sky helping to rebuild the ozone.
