Authorized ASTEC Re-Ply Applicator
Your Roof Doesn't Need
to Be Replaced.
It Needs to Be Restored.
ASTEC Re-Ply is a fluid-applied coating system that turns aging metal, single-ply, and asphalt roofs into seamless, watertight, energy-saving membranes — without tearing off the old roof.
Three Reasons Owners Choose ASTEC
~50%
Lower Cost
No tear-off labor. No landfill fees. No facility shutdown. The savings come from skipping every cost a tear-off forces you to absorb.
40%
Cooling Savings
0.87 solar reflectance. Up to 65°F drop in roof surface temperature. Energy Star & LEED qualified — a measurable HVAC savings line on your P&L.
0 Days
Downtime
Crews work entirely from the roof, on a building that keeps running. No tear-off, no cranes, no production lost.
Proven Performance
See the Difference in Thermal Imaging
The thermal image shows what the white ASTEC coating reflects away. The coated section reads 109°F while the uncoated dark roof reaches 173°F — a 65°F difference that translates directly to lower cooling costs.
Tear-Off vs. Re-Ply
Put This in Front of Your CFO
| Consideration | Tear-Off & Replacement | ASTEC Re-Ply |
|---|---|---|
| Installation Cost | Full replacement cost | Roughly half — sometimes less |
| Facility Shutdown | Common; runs into weeks | None required |
| Time on Roof | Months | Typically weeks |
| Warranty | Material only (typical) | Material + Labor, renewable |
| Tear-off Required | Yes — code mandate | Code-recognized exception |
| Disposal / Landfill | Tons of debris | Zero — nothing is removed |
| Energy Performance | Depends on selection | 0.87 reflectance, ~100 SRI |
| Tax Treatment | Capital expenditure | Often classifiable as maintenance |
| End-of-Warranty | Replace again | Re-coat & renew at fraction of cost |
Substrates We Restore
Roof Types We Coat
Metal Roofs
Standing seam, R-panel, corrugated steel. Encapsulates rust, locks down fasteners, stops thermal cycling damage.
- Rust encapsulation
- Fastener lock-down
- Seam sealing
- Thermal protection
Single-Ply
TPO, EPDM, PVC. Covers failing seams with a continuous monolithic membrane. Eliminates UV degradation.
- Seam coverage
- UV protection
- Adhesive failure fix
- Full membrane
Asphalt / BUR
Modified bitumen, cap sheet. Restores watertight surface over existing layers — even on 2-layer roofs without tear-off.
- Crack sealing
- Penetration flashing
- Ponding protection
- No tear-off needed
Flat & Low-Slope
Any substrate with ponding water. Reinforced spec with embedded mesh fabric for problem drainage areas.
- Ponding water rated
- Mesh reinforcement
- Thermal shock relief
- Code-compliant
The Process
How ASTEC Re-Ply Works
Five phases. Every step engineered to the same specification we install on military and Fortune 500 roofs.
Roof Survey & Qualification
Free, no-obligation. We walk the roof — sometimes with infrared imaging — to map substrate condition, wet insulation, fasteners, flashings, and penetrations. You get a written report. Roughly 85–90% of commercial roofs qualify.
Targeted Repair Phase
Typically less than 10% of the roof area needs repair. We replace wet insulation, tighten fasteners, and rebuild compromised flashings, drains, and penetrations — all itemized in your fixed-price proposal.
Surface Preparation
Substrate-specific. Metal gets pressure washing and rust neutralization. Single-ply gets chalking neutralized. Asphalt gets cleaned and primed. The right prep is what makes the warranty hold up.
Waterproofing
Every seam, fastener, and penetration is sealed with butyl-backed tape and reinforcing poly-cloth, then coated with ASTEC Base Sealer. For ponding areas, continuous mesh is embedded under the coating.
Finish Coating
Multiple monolithic layers of ASTEC 2000 Re-Ply Finish Cool Roofing — applied in passes engineered to your warranty term. The result: one seamless, white, ceramic-impregnated membrane. No seams left to fail.
The Renewable Warranty
The Only Roof Warranty That Can Be
Re-Coated and Renewed
10
Year
15
Year
20
Year
Material and labor — both covered. At the end of your term, the same roof can be re-coated and the warranty extended at a fraction of original cost. No other roof system in the industry works this way.

Energy & Sustainability
White Is Green
ASTEC Re-Ply meets or beats all known public and private standards for cool-roof credits and incentives. The system qualifies under EPA Energy Star, LEED, California Title 24, ASHRAE 90.1, and Green Globes.
Nationally, 8–10 million tons of roofing debris is sent to landfill every year. Restoration eliminates that for your project. ASTEC roofs offset an estimated 3 million metric tons of CO₂ annually.
Tax advantage: An ASTEC restoration can typically be treated as a maintenance expense (immediately deductible) rather than a capital improvement. We'll provide whatever documentation your accountant needs.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Will ASTEC stop our leaks?
Yes. The system creates a single, monolithic, seamless membrane over your entire roof — including every seam, fastener, penetration, and flashing detail. The most common failure points on traditional roofs are precisely what Re-Ply eliminates.
Will it handle ponding water?
On most roofs, yes. For roofs with significant ponding, we use the fully reinforced specification with embedded mesh fabric. The roof survey tells us which spec your building needs.
Do we need to tear off the existing roof?
No. That's the entire point — and the source of most savings. Even when building code would normally force a tear-off because two layers exist, Re-Ply is the code-compliant alternative.
Will my roof qualify?
About 85–90% of commercial roofs we inspect do. The substrate needs structural integrity, insulation must be largely dry, and seams/penetrations must be repairable. A free survey gives you the answer in writing.
How long does installation take?
A typical project that would take 4 months to tear off and replace can be restored in roughly 6 weeks — without facility shutdown. We give you a fixed schedule with the proposal.
Is the warranty actually backed?
Yes — by ASTEC, not just by us. The Renewable Warranty covers material and labor, and ASTEC has been honoring this warranty since 1986. The Naval Aviation Museum (2003 install, 2015 renewal, coverage to 2025) is one proof point.
