Warren Roof Pros provides professional roof coatings & sealing in Warren, MI for residential and commercial properties across south Macomb County. Coatings have one legitimate use in Warren and several illegitimate ones. The difference is worth roughly ten thousand dollars over the life of a garage roof, which is why most of this page is about the ones we refuse.
The first refusal is aluminum-fibered asphalt coating brushed over rolled roofing every two or three years. It is the most common maintenance habit on this housing stock and it is a treadmill: each coat goes on thin, each coat weathers off within a couple of winters. Every application buys another season while the laps underneath keep quietly opening.
Twenty years of it costs more in product and lost Saturdays than replacing the membrane once and properly would have cost in the first year. The second is coating asphalt shingles. Sprayed sealers sold as roof rejuvenation do not repair a fractured mat, they void most shingle warranties outright. They make the eventual tear-off dirtier and slower for whoever ends up doing it. We do not apply them, we will not subcontract them to anybody else.
We will explain why at rather more length than you want on a first phone call. There is a Warren version of that mistake, which is coating a shingle roof to stop a leak that is really a fastener problem. Sealer over a nail that missed the board and has backed out buys one season. Then you get the same drip in the same place.
The added benefit is that nobody can lift the tab any more to look at what caused it. Where a coating genuinely earns its money is a sound low-slope membrane in the second half of its life. Single-ply or modified bitumen at twelve to fifteen years, dry underneath, tight seams, drainage that works. A high-solids silicone system over that buys ten more years for a fraction of a tear-off.
The manufacturer will warrant it because the substrate qualifies. So on this work the survey always comes before the price, without exception. Core cuts, a moisture meter, and photographs of every seam and every termination on the roof, all dated. A damp core means a coating would trap that water and buy you two years of invisibility rather than two years of roof. We will show you the core sample rather than quote around it.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — gapped 1x6 plank sheathing, three-eighths-inch plywood roof decking, fastener penetration through a sub-three-quarter-inch deck, half-inch plywood overlay nailed off to the rafters, panel edge clips at unsupported plywood joints, six-nail fastening in the common bond — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Warren and nearby communities including Center Line, Eastpointe, Roseville, Fraser.

Materials, equipment and how we do roof coatings & sealing
The difference between roof coatings & sealing that lasts and roof coatings & sealing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with gapped 1x6 plank sheathing, three-eighths-inch plywood roof decking, fastener penetration through a sub-three-quarter-inch deck, half-inch plywood overlay nailed off to the rafters, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Warren job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in south Macomb County means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Warren Chooses Warren Roof Pros
- ✓We lift a shingle and read the sheathing before pricing a covering, because on Warren housing the deck decides the fastener and the fastener decides how long the roof stays on.
- ✓Nail length and pattern are written into the estimate. The code sets three-quarters of an inch into the sheathing, or all the way through where the deck is thinner than that, and on a 1960s panel it means a nail you can see from the attic.
- ✓Where sound boards only need a plywood overlay we quote the overlay, and we price it beside a full re-sheathing so you can see both numbers rather than being told which one you need.
- ✓Deck replacement is counted by the sheet and photographed open before anything covers it, so the number on the invoice is the number that was on the roof.
The standards behind roof coatings & sealing
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The roof coatings & sealing work we do in Warren follows published industry standards: NRCA publishes the Roofing Manual, the industry's reference for details and slope minimums, and Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association sets the shingle application and ventilation guidance the warranties reference. If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
