Silicone Roof Coating for Warehouses & Distribution Centers
Large square footage = maximum cost savings. Coat 50,000 sq ft for the price of replacing 20,000 sq ft.
The Roofing Challenge for Warehouses
Warehouse and distribution center flat roofs are among the most cost-sensitive commercial roofing projects. A 50,000 sq ft warehouse replacement at $10/sq ft is a $500,000 project. For most warehouse operators, that capital has better uses than roofing.
Why Silicone Coating Is the Right Solution
Silicone coating on a 50,000 sq ft warehouse costs $150,000–$300,000 — a savings of $200,000–$350,000 versus replacement. The large, relatively unobstructed field of a warehouse roof is also the ideal application environment for spray silicone, allowing crews to work efficiently and complete most warehouses in 1–3 days.
Cost Comparison
| Option | Cost/Sq Ft | Install Time | Disruption |
|---|---|---|---|
| Silicone Coating | $3–6 | 1–3 days | Minimal |
| Full Replacement | $8–16 | 5–10 days | Significant |
