Metairie Roof Pros provides professional roof coatings & sealing in Metairie, LA for residential and commercial properties across Jefferson Parish. Consider this our argument against a line on our own invoice. Roof coatings are sold hard in south Louisiana and they are the wrong answer far more often than they are the right one. We would rather lose the sale than take it on a roof that needed something else.
Start with what a coating cannot do here. It produces no evidence of anything. It cannot earn a FORTIFIED Roof designation, because the designation is granted on deck attachment, a sealed deck, edge metal and rated cover, none of which a coating touches. It therefore cannot earn you the premium discount that Louisiana law requires insurers to file for a designated roof. It is a maintenance product wearing a capital-improvement price tag.
Worse, on a steep-slope asphalt roof it actively costs you. Coating shingles voids essentially every manufacturer's warranty, traps moisture in the mat, and leaves the tear-off you will eventually pay for filthier and dearer than it needed to be. If your roof has under five years left, a coating is money set on fire and it also fouls the reroof you are going to buy anyway.
So the honest recommendation on most Metairie houses is to spend nothing. Clean the gutters, replace the two failed pipe boots, and keep the money. If the roof is within a few years of due and a designation is in your plans, wait and do the reroof properly. The discount attaches to the certificate, and the certificate is only available on the day the deck is open.
Now the narrow case where a coating is genuinely correct. An intact low-slope membrane, still adhered, with sound seams and no wet insulation under it, on a building where a tear-off would mean shutting down what is underneath. There a silicone or acrylic restoration buys real years for a fraction of replacement cost. It is a genuine product with a genuine and fairly narrow use.
If that is your situation we do it properly and we measure it. Core cuts to confirm the insulation is dry, adhesion pull patches read at seventy-two hours before the full application, seams reinforced with fabric, and dry film thickness read off a gauge instead of guessed from how many buckets went up. A coating specified by gallons instead of mils is not a specification. That last line is the whole test, and most quotes fail it.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — geo-tagged photographs of bare roof sheathing, 8D ring-shank deck nails shot against a tape measure, attic-side nail spacing photographs between consecutive trusses, taped sheathing seams beneath a wide-roll underlayment, twenty-six gauge galvanized drip edge replaced new on every tear-off, self-adhered starter strip bonded to the eave metal — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Metairie and nearby communities including New Orleans, Kenner, Marrero, LaPlace.

Materials, equipment and how we do roof coatings & sealing
The difference between roof coatings & sealing that lasts and roof coatings & sealing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with geo-tagged photographs of bare roof sheathing, 8D ring-shank deck nails shot against a tape measure, attic-side nail spacing photographs between consecutive trusses, taped sheathing seams beneath a wide-roll underlayment, 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 Metairie 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 Jefferson Parish means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Metairie Chooses Metairie Roof Pros
- ✓We wait for the permit to issue before anything comes off, because Act 422 of 2025 made starting early a licensing violation rather than a scheduling shortcut
- ✓The deck stays open long enough to photograph properly, from above with a tape measure and from inside the attic, so the attachment can be proved later
- ✓You receive the same file the parish receives, organized by address, so the record survives whichever contractor you use next
- ✓We quote the plain reroof and the documented FORTIFIED version side by side, with the evaluator's hold points already written into the schedule
