Cool Roof Coating in St. Louis
Cool roof coating in St. Louis gives a flat or low-slope roof a reflective surface that pushes summer heat back off the building. We apply these systems over sound membranes and metal panels, so our clients get more years out of the roof they already own, lower cooling loads through July and August, and a written estimate before anything starts.

Why Property Owners Choose Tesson
Drone inspections and thermal imaging reports show where a commercial building is losing energy, so facility managers can see the real condition of the surface before deciding between a coating and a replacement.
Our crews protect the grounds, stage materials out of the way, and leave the property tidy at the end of each day, which matters when the building below stays open for business during the work.
We are licensed and insured, we keep communication steady at every stage, and we back the work with 16 years of roofing experience across the St. Louis market.
What a Cool Roof Coating in St. Louis Covers
A coating is a fluid-applied layer that bonds to the existing roof and cures into a seamless reflective surface. On a flat or low-slope commercial roof, that surface sends a large share of the summer sun back instead of letting the deck soak it up. The building runs cooler through the hottest weeks, the membrane underneath stops cycling through the same heat stress, and seams, laps and flashings get sealed in the same pass. All of the work happens from above, so the business underneath keeps running.
The return shows up in two places. Cooling equipment works less in July and August, and the roof assembly you already paid for keeps earning its keep for more seasons. On one local building we tracked roof temperatures for a full year after coating it, and the projected overall energy savings came to 55%. Every roof is different, so we measure yours first and put the numbers in writing with the estimate.
Flat and Low-Slope Membranes
A commercial roof coating in St. Louis suits TPO, EPDM and modified bitumen decks that are still structurally sound. We clean the surface, repair seams and penetrations, then apply the system in even passes. Our guide to EPDM and TPO explains the differences.
Metal Roof Panels
Standing seam and corrugated panels take a roof coating in St. Louis well once loose fasteners are tightened and rust is treated. The finished layer seals panel laps and keeps water moving down the slope instead of sitting on it.
Lower Cooling Loads
An energy efficient roof coating in St. Louis reflects sunlight that would otherwise drive attic and plenum temperatures up. Facility managers notice the difference on summer utility bills and in how long rooftop units have to run each afternoon.
How a Coating Project Runs
Here is what happens once you call our office.
1. Roof Evaluation
We inspect the surface, seams, drains and flashings, adding drone imagery and thermal imaging reports on commercial buildings.
2. Written Estimate
You get a written estimate that spells out the preparation, the coating system, the square footage and the schedule.
3. Preparation and Repair
We clean the deck, reset loose fasteners, and repair seams and penetrations so the coating bonds to a sound surface.
4. Application and Walkthrough
We apply the coating in measured passes, clear the site, and walk the finished roof with you before we leave.
Why Coating Works on Roofs Around St. Louis
Summers here run hot and humid, winters swing hard the other way, and the same roof takes both of those seasons. A reflective surface answers the heat side of that, and careful prep work answers the rest.
Permits Across the Region
St. Louis City and St. Louis County are separate jurisdictions with their own building departments and permit processes. We confirm which one covers your address before the job is scheduled.
Weather and Seasonal Wear
Summer days above 90 degrees, a hail season that starts in April, and winter freeze and thaw cycles all age a roof surface. Coating gives that surface a fresh reflective skin.
The Homes and Buildings Here
Fenton and South County are full of low-pitched roofs near a 4:12 slope, where water drains slowly. Those roofs, along with flat commercial decks, make the best candidates for a cool roof in St. Louis.
Where We Work
We cover a 20 mile radius around our Fenton office, reaching South County, West County, Festus, Weldon Springs and Wentzville, with crews on roofing projects across St. Louis every week.
What St. Louis Customers Say

Bennett FamilyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
We had a fantastic experience with Tesson Roofing to replace our home's combo of flat and shingled (mansard?) roof prior to adding solar. Kevin and Annemarie were great during bid, install, and follow up. They were straight up about options and were honest about which upgrades suggested in other bids might provide value or overkill; they were neither the least or most expensive bids. A roof replacement is no doubt an expensive project and we are also comfortable with what we paid, neither the highest or lowest, and overall would work with Tesson again (though hopefully we don't need roof repair for a LONG time!)Posted on Google![]()

I had a new garage door installed (from another company) and was informed the garage frame was uneven. Therefore the garage door was slanted. I contacted Tesson Roofing, as they did my siding. Kevin contacted me immediately and came out to assess the problem. After the work was completed, the garage area was cleaner than when they started.Posted on Google![]()

We just had new roof and gutters installed. Carter came out to inspect our roof. He was very transparent with everything that would be completed and a time frame for completion. During the entire process he kept us informed of every step of the process. It was super easy contacting him if we had questions and a very rapid response, usually within 30 minutes. Patrick was very prompt with giving us the details of scheduling the actual work time frame. We could not be more pleased with the entire process and would recommend Tesson Roofing to anyone looking for roofing service.Posted on Google![]()
