Your roof represents a significant investment in your home. When asphalt shingles begin showing signs of age, it can be easy to assume that complete replacement is automatically the next step. But if the roof is still structurally suitable for treatment, you may have another option.
Asphalt shingles spend every day exposed to the environment. Common factors that contribute to roof aging include:
Over time, shingles may become increasingly dry, brittle, faded or prone to cracking. Once the aging process begins, taking action early can give homeowners more options.
Depending on its existing condition, yes.
Roof life extension focuses on preserving shingles that still have usable structural life instead of allowing deterioration to continue unchecked. GoNano technology is designed to help strengthen qualifying asphalt shingles, reduce common signs of premature deterioration and support longer lasting roof performance.
The amount of additional usable life depends on factors including the condition and age of the existing roofing system and the treatment that is appropriate for it.
Ignoring an aging roof does not stop the aging process. Granular loss, dryness, cracking and weather exposure can continue affecting the shingles.
A proactive evaluation gives you the opportunity to understand whether the roof is still protectable. If it qualifies, rejuvenation can help preserve the roofing system during a period when doing nothing may simply allow deterioration to continue.
GoNano offers different protective systems depending on the age and condition of the asphalt roof. For qualifying applications, GoNano states that its technology is designed to provide years of additional protection, with certain systems designed to help extend roof life by up to 20 years.
The actual solution for your home depends on the condition of your existing shingles. An evaluation is necessary before determining what treatment may be appropriate.
The "up to 20 years" figure is GoNano’s own manufacturer statement about its systems, not a guarantee from Superior Roof Coatings. It does not mean every roof will receive another 20 years. Every roofing system eventually reaches the end of its usable life; rejuvenation is intended to help preserve qualifying shingles and delay premature replacement, not eliminate the need for future replacement.
If your roof is still structurally sound, do not wait until visible aging becomes extensive deterioration. Find out whether advanced roof protection can help you keep your existing roof working longer.
