For those of us living in the Tri-Cities, keeping our homes protected from our climate is a constant battle, especially our roofing systems. From severe sun exposure in the summer to freezing rain in the winter, our roofs take a beating throughout most of the year. Unfortunately, this can lead to our shingles aging faster than they should. Roof treatments are a modern solution for aging shingles that save homeowners money and hassle. Let us explain.
What Is a Roof Treatment?
The Roof Maxx Shingle Treatment isn’t just a sealant or simple repair; it is a rejuvenation solution that helps shingles perform like new again. Designed with soy technology similar to that used in Good Year tires, the Roof Maxx Treatment is a bio-solution product that uses essential oil beads. These beads soak into dried-out shingles, restoring critical flexibility so they can once again expand and contract without breaking. Not only does this return the flexibility to the shingle, but it enhances its durability and permeability to an almost new condition.
Benefits of Roof Treatments:
Utilizing roof treatments to rejuvenate your shingles provides numerous benefits, with the number one being time.
The Roof Maxx Shingle Treatment extends the life of existing shingles by up to 5 years per treatment. Given that you can repeat the treatment up to 3 times, that is 15 years of extra roof life. Since most asphalt roofs nowadays only last between 10-20 years and cost an average of $8000 to $17000 for a 2,000 sq. ft. home, you can double the roof’s longevity for a fraction of the cost.
Cost is the second astounding benefit of utilizing the Roof Maxx Shingle Treatment. You can save thousands of dollars by utilizing our roof treatment compared to a traditional full roof replacement. Plus, during the treatment, you get a roof tune-up as part of the service. Not only does this address common minor concerns, but it can alert you to the health status of your roof should anything be wrong.
Another benefit of homeowners choosing a roof treatment over a replacement is its quick and non-invasive quality. Unlike traditional replacements that take over your home for a week and force you to remove pets and children from the house, the Roof Maxx Shingle Treatment can be done in a matter of hours. Plus, there is minimal noise, no mess, and zero construction hassle.
Lastly, going with a roof treatment is the eco-conscious choice. The Roof Maxx Shingle Treatment is environmentally friendly and prevents shingles from going into the landfill for as long as possible.
Signs Your Roof Might Need Treatment:
As our shingles age, they send us signs that they need help! If your roof shows any of the following signs or is 6 years old or older, it is likely time for a roof treatment.
- Curling shingles
- Brittle or cracked shingles
- Granule loss
- Visible wear and tear

How Roof Maxx of Tri-Cities Applies the Treatment:
If your roof is showing any of the signs above, there is a high likelihood that you need a roof treatment. When you call us at Roof Maxx of the Tri-Cities, here is how our service works:
Step 1: Free Inspection & Evaluation
While most roofs are eligible for the Roof Maxx Shingle Treatment, not every roof is. Roofs with significant damage that go beyond the scope of our tune-up service will need to be addressed before we can help you. During your free inspection, we will evaluate the state of your roof, let you know of any potential concerns, and confirm a treatment plan.
Step 2: Gentle Roof Tune Up
Next, after your eligibility has been confirmed, you will get a gentle roof cleaning and preparation service. During this time, we will seal exposed nails, fix cracked shingles, repair collars, install new boot gaskets, and reseal flashings. Then, you are ready for the treatment!
Step 3: Treatment Spray
The treatment spray process typically takes less than 2 hours for an average-sized roof. During that time, your crew will walk across your roof and meticulously spray the treatment solution. After the treatment has dried, you will see noticeable results within 72 hours.
Why Regular Maintenance Matters:
Even with the Roof Maxx Shingle Treatment revitalizing your roof to almost new, it doesn’t mean the maintenance stops there. Regular roof maintenance is a critical aspect of homeownership that can not be forgotten.
By actively practicing preventative roof care, you can drastically reduce the chance of needing emergency repairs while enhancing your home value and curb appeal. Plus, by being consistent with your maintenance and addressing minor repairs as they occur, you will be better able to plan for future replacement costs when the time inevitably comes.
At Roof Maxx of the Tri-Cities, we highly recommend getting annual roof inspections and repairs. Plus, if you do suspect you are facing a roof issue, especially after brutal storms or a long winter, getting an extra inspection to confirm or deny your concerns is always worthwhile!
