How Roof X-TEND Works

Think of your roof like your own skin. When you are exposed to harsh climate conditions, your skin dries out. This can result in rashes, burns, and even cracks. It’s not that different for asphalt roofs. Roof X-TEND works by restoring and preserving the essential oils within your asphalt shingles. Over time, these shingles tend to lose their natural oils, causing the granular coating to wash into the gutters and leaving the shingles susceptible to cracking and deterioration.

What Is the Spray Made Of?

The base of these products is Methyl Ester and an emulsifier. Methyl Ester can be extracted from different sources such as cracked soy oil or recycled plant oils. A recycled source is better for the environment, but rarer. The Methyl Ester bonds with and re-softens the Maltene side of the Asphalt.

While the exact blend will vary from brand to brand, most are made from a plant-based oil that is applied topically to your roof. It dries clear and is easily washed off of surfaces with a garden hose. Most sprays are soybean oil-based and are human, pet, and plant-safe! All reputable companies will use products that have been lab tested to ensure that they are equal parts safe and effective.

Benefits of Roof X-TEND

For most homeowners, the biggest appeal of a roof rejuvenation, is the significant amount of money saved. A standard roof replacement for a roof with asphalt shingles can easily cost between $8000-$15,000, depending on the size of your home and where you live. A roof rejuvenation, on the other hand, costs between $2000-$4000.

X-TEND the Life of Your Roof

Not only will Roof X-TEND will ensure that you do not need a new roof this year, but it can help you keep your roof for many years to come. Most roof restorations can extend the life of your roof for 5-15 years, depending on the environmental conditions of your climate.
