Tucson Rubberized Coatings | Roof Coatings Tucson

I met a young man today named Zoreno I called him 10 minutes before he closed because I have a coating job tomorrow. When I told him my need, he offered to wait around for 30 minutes in order to help me out. I really thought when I got there I would be dealing with the owner. That was not the case but I can tell you the owner is lucky to have this young man in his employ. Great company, the only roof coating I would trust, and exceptional staff.

I did a fair amount of research and came to realize that this establishment, which sells only one product, carries the most-recommended roof coating for our desert homes. It's a bit pricier than "average." The 7000 series retails for $116 but anyone will automatically get a $10 discount to $96 per 5 gallon pail. Contractors that have an account will get about $20 off per pail.Each bucket will cover 250 sq ft (that's for double coat). So for a 2500 sq ft roof, you'll need about 10 buckets. Keep in mind, however, that your appraised square footage is typically about 25% less than your actual ROOF's sq ft. My porches and garage added nearly 1000 sq ft to the final estimate. I purchased 12 buckets and that was just right - allowing for glopping on extra touchup for sealing various protrusions, vents, skylights, chimneys, etc. Important: these buckets weigh about 65+ lbs each... very heavy. The hardest part about doing our own roof was the prep (power washing) and climbing each pail up the ladder, wounded soldier style (over the shoulder). My son and I finished the roof in two weekends because you need to have the power washing - and any patching - completely dry before spreading the first coat on the roof or else it (like any white coating) will bubble in no time. We could have spread the second coat on the next day but we both worked, hence the second weekend. Plus, our backs and quads were aching. Luckily we used SPF 110 on our face/necks!Tip: I first used a standard 9" roller with 1-1/4 in nap, attached to an adjustable aluminum pole. That took forever. I then bought a set up for an 18" roller (only available in 3/4" nap) from HD/Lowe's ($35 for bracket to hold rollers and an 18" roller) and that literally went twice as fast, but it was much harder work (pushing that much extra rubber coating using a roller that was now twice as heavy with product)! Bonus: my SO said I looked "ripped" after those two weekends.Their 6am - 5pm hours are great, plus open on wknds. They'll also help you load the buckets into your truck. Again, keep in mind that 10 buckets is almost 700 lbs of cargo.Note, there's a -$4 deduction for any returned (unopened) buckets (a "restocking fee"). At this price point I think that's absurd for a product that loses zero value and can be instantly re-marketed (unlike electronics, for example).I got the whole thing done for less than half the cost of the two professional estimates I got ($1,600 in materials vs $3,500 by contractor). But, honestly, given the four days needed to properly space out the power wash; coat; and re-coat; I'm not sure it was worth $2k for all of that sweat! On the other hand, the pride of a job really well done and of teaching and sharing in the task with my son... equally priceless. Plus, part of my expenses included a $210 electric power washer (2200 PSI) which I have always wanted. I can now "scrub" the driveway; fence; wash the cars/wheels; patio/porches... hands down the best part of the whole expense!
