Liqua-Roof's roof resurfacing system is an innovative alternative to full roof replacement for asphalt shingle and flat roofs. Instead of tearing off your existing roofing, we resurface and rebuild it with a brand-new, high-build granule layer, creating a protective layer that outperforms even new shingles at a fraction of the cost.
Asphalt shingles are manufactured in durability tiers, from standard architectural shingles to premium Class 4 impact-resistant products. These ratings reflect how well a roof withstands hail and weather — and they also affect cost, with Class 4 shingles typically 15–30% more expensive than standard options.
During manufacturing, mineral granules are embedded into hot asphalt to form the protective surface of the shingle. But because this layer remains exposed to weather and UV, granules gradually loosen and shed over time.

If your roof structure is still sound but granule loss has begun, Liqua-Roof restores the protective surface by applying a new high-build granule layer reinforced with Granulock™ technology for superior durability and impact resistance. It’s typically applied around the midpoint of a roof’s lifespan—when wear begins to show but before full replacement becomes necessary.

While some conditions warrant a complete roof replacement, most roofs can be resurfaced without the cost, time, or mess of a new roof.

Learn more about roof resurfacing and how it differs from roof replacement.
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 roof 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.
Absolutely! Liqua-Roof delivers the benefits of a new roof—protection, appearance, and durability—at a fraction of the cost, time, and without all the mess and disruption of a full replacement.
Unlike layering new shingles, our roof resurfacing system is significantly more cost-effective and dramatically lighter. Traditional shingles are heavy due to their asphalt and multiple layers—materials our process eliminates. Liqua-Roof resurfaced shingles weigh less than 20% of conventional new shingles. This reduced weight helps preserve your roof's structural integrity and allows it to continue breathing properly, unlike applying shingles over existing shingles.
Granule shedding may occur over time but at a significantly slower rate. Unlike new shingles, where granules are simply “tossed” onto hot asphalt during the manufacturing process, we physically glue the granules onto the shingles for superior adhesion. In ASTM 4977 testing, our coating showed 90% less granule loss compared to uncoated shingles, ensuring long-lasting protection.
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.
