Roof Maxx of Hickory, NC

Not every aging roof needs to be replaced. Sometimes the shingles just need restoration. Roof Maxx of Hickory specializes in a single service: rejuvenating asphalt shingle roofs that have lost flexibility and are showing their age, but have not yet failed completely. The technology uses a plant-based oil that restores moisture to dried-out shingles. Asphalt shingles contain oils that keep them flexible and waterproof, but those oils evaporate over time, especially under the intense sun exposure roofs face. When shingles dry out, they become brittle, lose granules, and fail prematurely. The Roof Maxx treatment penetrates the shingles and restores that lost flexibility. One application can add approximately five years of service life to a qualifying roof. With up to three treatments spaced over time, homeowners can potentially extend roof life by fifteen years at a fraction of replacement cost. The treatment is safe, quick to apply, and does not require removing or disturbing the existing roofing system. The service area covers Hickory, Lenoir, Granite Falls, Boone, Banner Elk, Blowing Rock, Newland, Conover, Maiden, and the surrounding communities in Caldwell and Catawba counties. The Blue Ridge foothills climate accelerates shingle aging with UV exposure at higher elevations and the freeze-thaw cycles that stress roofing materials through winter. Not every roof qualifies for rejuvenation. The inspection determines whether the existing shingles have enough structure remaining to benefit from treatment. Roofs that have already failed or sustained major damage still need replacement. But for the significant number of roofs that fall into the middle ground, Roof Maxx offers a practical alternative. Property owners across the Hickory area who want to extend their roof life without the disruption and expense of replacement can contact Roof Maxx for an assessment.
