Roof Paint
An alkyd-based coating with a semi-glossy finish designed for the protection of galvanized roofs and exposed steelwork.
High-build acrylic roof membranes, rust conversion, solar heat reflectance, and leak prevention for corrugated metal and tile roofs across Kenya.
Roofs endure the most aggressive thermal stress of any building surface, expanding under blistering midday heat and contracting sharply at night. Corrugated galvanized iron roofs also suffer from rust along screw holes and overlaps, while concrete tile roofs develop porous, weathered surfaces and loose ridge mortar. We provide protective roof coating contracting for residential, commercial, and industrial roofs across Kenya. Our systems combine rust treatment, screw fastener resealing, acrylic elastomeric membrane waterproofing, and solar-reflective thermal barrier coatings.
Uncoated or dark galvanized iron roofs absorb solar radiation, heating building interiors up to 35C and requiring heavy air conditioning expenditure. Our solar heat-reflective white and light-toned elastomeric roof coatings reflect up to 85% of solar infrared rays, reducing roof surface temperatures by up to 15C to 20C and keeping interior temperatures comfortably cooler.
Over 90% of corrugated metal roof leaks occur at oxidized fastener screws and horizontal sheet overlaps. Before applying roof coatings, we inspect every roof screw, replace missing or perished neoprene rubber washers, treat rusted sheet edges with an organic rust converter, and seal sheet overlaps with flexible elastomeric compound reinforced with fiber membrane.
We survey the entire roof deck, tighten loose screws, replace perished washers, and mark rust zones.

Power washing removes dirt and moss. Corroded iron receives rust-converting stabilizing primer.
⏱ Estimated Interval: 1 to 2 days
Joint overlaps, valley flashings, and screw heads are sealed with elastomeric compound and fiber mesh.
⏱ Estimated Interval: 1 to 2 days
Two heavy coats of UV-resistant elastomeric roof coating applied across the entire roof surface.
⏱ Estimated Interval: 2 to 3 days

Weatherproof exterior facade painting, elastomeric barrier coatings, boundary perimeter walls, and solar UV protection for residential buildings across Kenya.
Yes. Applying a solar-reflective elastomeric white or light-toned roof coating reflects up to 85 percent of solar radiation, compared to dark or weathered metal that absorbs heat. On sunny days in Kenya, this typically lowers roof surface temperatures by 15C to 20C, significantly reducing heat radiating down into your ceilings and living areas.
We never paint directly over loose rust. Rusted areas are wire-brushed to remove loose scale and treated with a chemical rust converter that transforms iron oxide into a stable, inert organo-metallic complex. A zinc-phosphate anti-corrosive primer is then applied before elastomeric topcoating.
Over years of hot sun, the original rubber washers under roof screws dry out, crack, and perish. Wind vibration also loosens screws. During our roof preparation, we tighten loose screws, replace damaged washers, and seal every fastener head with an elastomeric membrane seal.
Yes. Weathered concrete tiles absorb rainwater and grow unsightly moss and lichen. We pressure-wash tiles clean, re-point loose ridge mortar caps with polymer sand-cement mortar, apply an acrylic tile sealer to stop water absorption, and coat with two coats of dedicated acrylic roof tile paint.
A quality elastomeric acrylic roof coating applied at proper thickness (typically 300 to 400 microns dry film) provides 5 to 8 years of weatherproofing and UV protection before requiring an overcoating maintenance refresh.
Yes, once fully cured. We specify non-toxic, lead-free acrylic formulations. However, we advise disconnecting rainwater harvesting pipes from storage tanks during application and for the first significant rainfall following completion to flush away any residual wash water.
We inspect the site, calibrate concrete moisture levels with digital impedance meters, evaluate substrate soundness, and write an exact bill of quantities before quotation.
