Silicone Roof Coating Project Planning

Silicone roof coatings are used in selected restoration and maintenance systems. Product choice depends on the roof substrate, existing coatings and repairs, drainage, surface condition, preparation, and the current system instructions.

Inspect and test the roof

Document seams, penetrations, flashings, damaged areas, previous sealants or coatings, contamination, and areas where water remains after rainfall. Cleaning and adhesion requirements can vary with the existing surface; test the proposed preparation and system on the actual roof.

Confirm compatibility and current instructions

Review the current Lexis product data and safety data for every proposed cleaner, primer, sealant, reinforcement material, and coating. Confirm that the products are compatible with the existing roof and with one another. Complete any required adhesion testing on the actual roof before ordering the full project quantity.

Define the work before ordering

Document preparation, repairs, detail treatment, application method, coverage or film-thickness requirements from approved product data, weather limitations, safety responsibilities, and exclusions. Contractors should include these items in the written scope. Building owners doing their own research should use the same checklist when comparing options.

Ask Lexis about product selection

Send the roof type, approximate area, current condition, existing coatings or repairs, photographs, and project location through the Lexis contact page. These details help narrow product choices without assuming that one system fits every roof.
