Commercial Roofing Acrylic Coating in Brooklyn
Commercial roofing acrylic coating by BST Roofers turns the flat or low-slope roof you already have into one elastomeric, white reflective membrane. It blocks UV, keeps the building cooler and extends roof life, with no tear-off.
We coat offices, retail stores, warehouses, restaurants, apartment and mixed-use buildings, churches and schools.

Cooler top floors, longer roof life
White acrylic reflects around 80 percent of sunlight and blocks UV. The top floor stays cooler, and cooling bills drop.
Seams, laps and fasteners disappear under one continuous coat. Your current roof gains another decade or so, and you skip the cost of tearing it off.
Six steps, inspection to cure
Same order, every roof.
-
01
Inspection
We test the insulation for moisture and mark where water ponds.
-
02
Leak and seam repair
Active leaks are fixed before any coat goes on, open seams too.
-
03
Power washing
Dirt and chalking come off so the coat can bond.
-
04
Primer
Only where the system needs it.
-
05
Base coat
Polyester fabric goes into it over seams and penetrations.
-
06
Top coat and cure
Built to the specified dry mil thickness, then cured before foot traffic.
Three findings that make coating the wrong buy
- 1
Wet insulation at inspection. Coating would trap that water, so we recommend a full restoration.
- 2
Ponding the slope cannot clear. Acrylic breaks down under standing water, so the drainage gets corrected through restoration first.
- 3
Membrane failing across the roof. Replacing the roof is the better spend.
