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. Tesson Roofing & Exteriors applies cool roof coating 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. Call us to find out whether a cool roof coating fits your building.

Why Property Owners Choose Tesson

Measured Before and After

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.

Clean Job Sites

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.

Licensed and Insured

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 coating 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

A reflective coating sends back 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.

Craig Weil did a great job inspecting my roof, siding, windows, gutters, downspouts, chimney, garage door, sunroom screens, pretty much everything around the house. He revisited in 2 years and did the same (if not more thorough) walkthrough, followed by detailed explanations. There was no significant hail damage to replace the roof, but he found a couple of problems with the flushing around the chimney, as well as a few loose shingles, and secured them all while up there. I would definitely recommend him as a roofing/siding contractor.

I spent 4 years trying to figure out roof vs tuckpointing. Everyone kept telling my the other after 5 minutes spent looking. Tesson spent an hour on my roof and showed me things I had no idea was going on. So professional, so organized - Andrew Cheek was on top of it all! Communicated every step of the way and my house is finally sealed up with a new roof!! I am so happy with my experience.

We had a good experience working with Jake Looney and Tesson Roofing on our roof replacement. We chose Tesson based on their reputation, seeing their work on a few other homes in our neighborhood, and the fact that they’re a local company in Fenton. We went with the CertainTeed Landmark Pro shingles, and the finished roof looks great. The installation went smoothly, and communication throughout the process was good. This is our initial review, as I think the true test of any roofing company is how well the roof holds up over time and how they respond if an issue comes up. Tesson offers a strong warranty on paper, which was reassuring, although hopefully we’ll never need to use it. It’s difficult as a homeowner to verify every aspect of a roof installation, so reputation and standing behind the work are important. Overall, we’re pleased with the experience, Jake was good to work with, and we feel good about our decision to go with Tesson Roofing.

So happy with the James Hardie siding, Affinity Stone and gutter installation project! Our house looks like a brand new house and the workmanship is beautiful! Kevin Kaczerowski and his team were easy to work with and their expertise interacting with our insurance adjuster was fast and efficient. I really appreciate that Kevin is a local guy and was very responsive to my questions and a few last minute enhancements. I would recommend Tesson Roofing and Kevin Kaczerowski to anyone needing roofing and or exterior work!
