We maintain our asphalt driveways and roadways, why not our roofs?
Eco-Shield, Inc.. uses a bio-based soybean oil solution that adds years of life to asphalt shingles, extending the time that the shingles would need to be replaced.
After completing a series of vigorous lab tests the Eco-Shield, Inc.. treatment has demonstrated that it can help reduce the effects of aging after being applied to asphalt shingles, improve granular adhesion, help waterproof the surface and improve fire retardancy.
This environmentally safe solution improves shingle flexibility which helps the expansion and contracting that happens to the shingle throughout the day. Eco-Shield, Inc.. uses a bio-based soybean oil solution that is safe around the exterior of the home.
Asphalt roofs usually start showing signs of aging between seven to ten years here in Frorida. Asphalt shingle granular coating starts washing into the gutters (those little rocks, in your gutters) as the oil dries out, thus the shingle looses the ability to hold the granular in place, leaving it exposed to cracking and failing.
PRI Asphalt Technologies Inc, one of the largest shingle and asphalt testing labs in the world, tested our bio-based product and concluded that treated shingles had 86% better granular adhesion and 40% better fire retardancy on treated shingles versus untreated. Eco-Shield, Inc.. also increases water resiliency, suffocates moss, increases shingle flexibility, helps to keep granular in place, making the shingles last longer, keeping them on your roof where they belong.
Replacing Lost Oils
Natural agriculture oils have been used for the past 15 years to rejuvenate asphalt roads to replace the oils that are lost through years of aging.
Increased Granular Adhesion
By rejuvenating shingles there is 86% better granular adhesion, increased shingle flexibility which helps prevent damage caused by wind and hail
Stop Moss Growth
When applied, Eco-Shield, Inc.. will smother moss and algae, restricting the ability for the moss to grow further. The dead moss will wash off after a good rain or roof cleaning.
