Saginaw Roof Pros provides professional roof coatings and sealing in Saginaw, MI for residential and commercial properties across the Saginaw Valley. We will start with the sale we refuse. Coating an asphalt shingle roof does not work, does not extend its life, and voids your shingle warranty. If somebody has quoted you a spray coating for a worn shingle roof in Saginaw, keep your money.
The reason is mechanical. A shingle roof sheds water by lapping, not by forming a skin. Painting a membrane over the laps bridges them, traps whatever moisture is already in the deck, and gives you a surface that cracks along every course line within a few seasons. On a house that stood cold with a damp deck, sealing that moisture in is actively worse than doing nothing.
There are two places where coatings genuinely earn their keep, and we do both. The first is an aged metal roof with sound panels and tired finish. Cleaning it, treating the fastener heads and the seams with a reinforced detail coat, and then coating the field will add real years to a barn, garage or shop roof for a fraction of replacement, and around the Saginaw Valley that describes a great many outbuildings.
The second is a low slope membrane that is weathered but structurally intact, with dry insulation underneath. A silicone or acrylic system over a properly cleaned and primed membrane is a legitimate restoration with a real warranty behind it. The condition of that sentence is the word dry, which is why we take core cuts before quoting instead of after.
What rules a coating out is wet insulation, ponding that will not be corrected, or a membrane already splitting at the seams. Coating over any of those buys twelve months and complicates the eventual tear off, and we will tell you so rather than take the work. The core cut takes twenty minutes and it is the only way to know which of those you have.
Sealing is a smaller, more useful category. Fastener heads on an exposed fastener panel, the reglet line above a counterflashing, a pipe boot whose collar has hardened. Those are hours of work, not thousands, and they resolve a great many of our calls. We are content to do the small job and leave, and we would rather you called us for that than let a leak run another winter because you assumed the answer was a roof.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — a moisture reading taken on the sheathing before the furnace is relit, cold deck rot advanced through consecutive unheated winters, eave ice barrier laid for a winter the house has not yet had, baffled soffit intake opened during tear off rather than after a leak, the higher thermal factor a code assigns an unheated roof, hand sealed tabs on a roof laid too late in the season to bond — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Saginaw and nearby communities including Bay City, Midland, Frankenmuth, Bridgeport.

Materials, equipment and how we do roof coatings and sealing
The difference between roof coatings and sealing that lasts and roof coatings and sealing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with a moisture reading taken on the sheathing before the furnace is relit, cold deck rot advanced through consecutive unheated winters, eave ice barrier laid for a winter the house has not yet had, baffled soffit intake opened during tear off rather than after a leak, 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 Saginaw 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 the Saginaw Valley means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Saginaw Chooses Saginaw Roof Pros
- ✓We read the deck from underneath before quoting, because on a house that has stood cold the sheathing, not the shingle, is what decides the price you pay.
- ✓Ventilation and ceiling plane air sealing get done during the reroof, not deferred, since the first winter with the heat on is the winter the assembly is finally tested.
- ✓We will tell you to wait until spring when your roof is holding, rather than sell you a late season tear off that cannot bond its sealant strip on an unheated house.
- ✓Porch and addition planes get measured and priced separately, because on pre 1950 Saginaw housing they are shallower than the main roof and frequently carry a covering the slope does not allow.
The standards behind roof coatings and sealing
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The roof coatings and sealing work we do in Saginaw 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.
Every roof coatings and sealing project in Saginaw gets the same attention, whether it is a single room or a full commercial job. We show up on schedule, keep the site clean, and stand behind the work — the estimate is free and there is no pressure.
