Today in Carthage, Missouri, our team at Ridgeline Roofing & Solar applied a Polyglass 951 Silicone Roofing System to the roof of The First Christian Church and The Bridge—just a few blocks from the town square. This high-performance roofing solution is quickly becoming one of our go-to recommendations for flat roof restoration, and here’s why:
Why Choose Polyglass Silicone?
✅ Seamless Protection
Once applied, this coating eliminates vulnerable seams and creates a fully waterproof, continuous membrane—ideal for older roofs or those prone to leaks.
✅ UV Reflectivity = Summer Savings
The bright white finish reflects a significant amount of sunlight, which helps lower indoor temps and can reduce energy bills by up to 30% during hot summer months.
✅ Affordable Alternative to Replacement
Polyglass silicone systems are often less than half the cost of a full roof replacement—without sacrificing protection or warranty coverage.
✅ Eco-Friendly Formula
Polyglass 951 is a low-VOC, environmentally safe product with zero harmful runoff. It’s a win for your building and the planet.
✅ Quick & Clean Installation
Most silicone coating jobs take just two days and allow us to stay out of your way while we work. No tear-off mess, no disruption.
✅ Insurance-Qualified as a New Roof
If your roof has sustained storm or hail damage, silicone systems like this one qualify as a “new roof” under most insurance policies after a covered peril.
This particular project involved applying 20 wet mils of silicone—about 2.5 gallons per square—and comes backed by robust warranties:
- 50-Year Material Warranty
- 10-Year Manufacturer Labor & Leak Warranty
- Additional 10-Year Labor Warranty by Ridgeline Roofing
If you’re in Southwest Missouri and looking to extend your roof’s life without the cost of replacement, the Polyglass Silicone System may be your perfect solution.
