The Future is Here and Roof Replacement is Now a Thing of the Past!
The concept is not new, property owners have been doing
this to protect the wood and add beauty to their homes for
years.
Durable long lasting modern paint that actually protected
the wood from rot and decay was not developed until 1880.
However, it was considered a luxury item only sported on
homes of the well to do and the homeowners that easily
understood the cost saving benefits. For the vast majority
paint was for pretty colors and was considered a waste of
money by the average homeowner.
The idea did slowly catch on, it is easier to paint your home
and keep it painted rather than perform constant
maintenance on the wood - repairing and replacing it.
It wasn't until the 1920's that the general population decided
that painting your home was a good idea.
Today, what if we treated the exterior wood on our homes
like we treat our asphalt shingle roofs? Construct our homes
with wood siding, trim and decks and then about every 15 to
20 years when the wood rotted, we replaced it?
Makes sense, right?
No, because that's crazy, everyone knows that if you keep a
nice coat of paint on the wood that wood will last forever.
However, that is exactly what we do with our asphalt shingle
roofs on our homes right now. Why, because there is
nothing we can do to protect to the shingles that will prevent
you from replacing them, until now.
The problem in the past was developing a product that
would enhance the look of the shingles and that is durable
enough protect them from the elements, stopping their
decay. The coating industry has been competing to solve
this problem for many years, and the clear winner is:
Roof-Guard™ Asphalt Shingle Formula. This is a clear
protective coating originally developed to enhance the
performance and add beauty of your asphalt shingles; stop
the growth of mold and mildew and prolong their life span
more than ten years per application, preventing roof
replacement. After application, this product demonstrated
some very interesting qualities... (more info)
