ROOF RESURFACING

Build a stronger roof with our roof resurfacing system

Our patented roof resurfacing system is the only long-term solution to shingle degradation, giving you the performance of new shingles without yearly maintenance or reapplication.

Liqua-Roof is a roof resurfacing system

It adds a new, high-build granule layer to asphalt shingles and flat roofs to extend roof life. It is not a shingle rejuvenator, roof paint, coating, or sealer.

RESURFACING OVERVIEW

What is roof resurfacing?

Granule loss is the beginning of roof failure. When shingles start losing their protective granules, they become exposed to the elements. Roof resurfacing is the innovative process of adding a new granule layer to asphalt shingles and locking them in place to rebuild and restore the shingle’s outermost protective layer.

Stronger than a new roof

Liqua-Roof is engineered to significantly extend roof life with superior strength and weather resistance. Powered by Granulock™ technology, it results in less granule loss than brand new shingles (lab tested retention ASTM D4977); and provides stronger impact resistance than premium, class-4 shingles (lab-tested durability ASTM D2794).

Looks like a new roof

Change the color of your roof with a natural, non-painted granulated finish that looks like new shingles, all while remaining breathable and water-resistant.

65% cheaper than a new roof in just one application

Liqua-Roof delivers stronger-than-new performance for up to 65% of the cost of a new roof... with no yearly reapplications needed.

HOW IT WORKS

Our 3-part system rebuilds shingles from the inside out

1. Rejuvenate & Reverse Aging

For brittle, curled and worn-out shingles, we start with an advanced shingle rejuvenation process that helps them lay flat again. Unlike conventional soybean oil treatments that only surface penetrate and can rinse away, our proprietary tar-enhanced oil emulsion penetrates deep into shingles. It infuses fresh asphalt content, restoring essential oils and plasticizers to revive flexibility and strength. The added tar minimizes runoff—a common flaw in rejuvenators—and creates a fresh adhesive layer, mimicking the original manufacturing process. This sets the foundation for long-term flexibility and durability.

2. Waterproof & Seal

Next, we apply a high-performance, proprietary coating that seeps deep into microscopic cracks, sealing them against water and locking in the rejuvenating oils and tar. This waterproof yet breathable layer forms a strong, leak-proof barrier in preparation for granule resurfacing.

3. Resurface & Defend

This final and truly revolutionary step involves spraying on a layer of genuine roof granules in a proprietary clear resin. This creates an ultra-strong mechanical bond that surpasses the original granule-to-asphalt adhesion. The result? Reinforced shingles with lasting protection and a fresh, updated look that resembles brand-new shingles.

WHEN TO CHOOSE

When to choose Liqua-Roof's roof resurfacing system?  

The answer is simple- if your roof is in relatively  good condition with only a small amount of repairs, Liqua-Roof is the smarter alternative to temporary roof treatments and costly replacement.  

Rejuvenators, Paints, Sealers

CHOOSE WHEN

You want the lowest cost option & a short-term solution
These options simply buy you some time before inevitably having to replace your roof.

Liqua-Roof delivers a better ROI and far greater durability for only a modest cost difference, with no re-application required.

CHOOSE WHEN

You want to reverse normal wear & tear to prevent a full replacement with a long-term solution
Your roof has minor shingle wear and requires small repairs, but roof deck/underlayment are sound. Liqua-roof is the most cost-effective way to restore like-new performance and curb appeal, without a tear-off.
New Roof

CHOOSE WHEN

Roof systems are failing or require upgrades
Recommended when your roof has major structural problems or widespread failure, or when system upgrades or insurance requirements make a full replacement necessary.

How is it possible to claim that Liqua-Roof is stronger than new shingles?

It’s all about the granules. Asphalt shingles are composed of multiple layers—fiberglass for structure, asphalt for flexibility and waterproofing, and a topmost layer of granules that provides the true protection against sun, wind, and water. When those granules erode over time, your roof begins to break down. The asphalt underneath gets exposed, leading to curling, cracking, and eventual failure. What makes Liqua-Roof unlike any roof treatment or coating on the market is that we don’t just preserve what’s left—we rebuild it. Our resurfacing system adds a new, high-build granule layer directly onto your existing shingles, increasing their protective barrier beyond even what you’d get with brand-new shingles—including those rated Class-4 for impact resistance. That’s what makes Liqua-Roof a true upgrade, not just maintenance.

How much does Liqua-Roof cost?

Liqua-Roof typically costs less than half the price of a full roof replacement—and often under 40%, depending on roof pitch. While it's slightly more expensive than shingle rejuvenators, it lasts 2–3 times longer and allows you to change your roof color. In terms of durability and benefits, Liqua-Roof is more comparable to a full shingle replacement than to shingle oil rejuvenation.

How does Liqua-Roof compare to shingle sealers and rejuvenators?

Shingle sealers and rejuvenators soften asphalt to prevent cracking but don’t replace lost granules or reinforce shingles with a new protective layer. While they offer some short-term protection, these solutions ultimately delay—but don’t eliminate—the need for a roof replacement. Liqua-Roof provides lasting protection by restoring and reinforcing your roof with a durable granule layer.

What colors are available?

Liqua-Roof’s base formulation is clear; the color comes entirely from the granules themselves! We offer the same color options as new shingles, blending two or three granule shades to create a natural, dimensional appearance—just like a traditional shingled roof.

What type of warranty do you offer?  

We offer a 15-year warranty that protects against premature wearing of the surface—specifically, if your original shingle color starts to show through. In the unlikely event that this occurs, our crew will return to your home to reapply our system at no cost to you.
