The last ROOF you’ll ever need
Find answers to commonly asked questions about our roof renewal services below. If you have a question that isn't answered here, feel free to contact us for more information.
GoNano can be applied on roofs up to 25 years old. However, it isn’t so much the age of the roof but its condition. The sooner you apply GoNano, the sooner you will benefit from its antiaging and protective properties. Our NuRoof Fortify products is used on newer roofs up to 5 years old, our NuRoof Revive product is used on roofs 6-20 years old, NuRoof Bio Boost is used on older roofs 20-25 years old.
The GoNano treatment typically costs 75-80% LESS than a roof replacement. The cost of a GoNano treatment depends on several factors, including size, your location, the complexity of your roof, and its current condition. Features like the pitch of your roof, gables, and overall accessibility can also impact pricing. An average home is $2400-$2800. Please contact us for a free over-the-phone/email estimate, or an in-person no-obligation quote.
Warranties for the typical asphalt shingle roofs range from 10-15 years. This depends on the condition of the roof. Warranties for wood and concrete treatments are 10 years. Warranties are fully transferable in the event of the sale of your home.
Yes, for the better. The treatment helps to restore the original appearance of your roof while modifying and improving it.
Science at a nano scale.
One meter is equivalent to one billion nanometers. To put it in simpler terms, 1 Nano particle is 30,000 times smaller than a human hair! Nanotechnology is science, engineering and technology performed on particles ranging from 1 to 150 nanometersl.
No, GoNano does not void any of the current shingle manufacturer warranties. We have undertaken a comprehensive legal assessment with our law firm to confirm this for the leading shingle manufacturers such as IKO, Owens Corning, BP, and GAF.
Many GoNano clients have successfully obtained approval from their insurance companies to use GoNano as a solution to extend the life of their roofs, delaying the need for a full roof replacement. While it does depend on the specific case, all one needs to do is contact their insurer and discuss the GoNano option. Most insurance companies are now aware of our product and recognize the benefits of applying GoNano to prolong a roof’s lifespan. A specification sheet can be provided to submit to your insurance company to help determine your specific coverage.
The water beading effect will diminish after about 5-8 years, depending on the local weather conditions, but this does not impact the product’s performance. The product continues to perform well throughout the entire 10-15 year period.
None.
Once the treatment has penetrated the first layer of roofing (about 2 hours after application) rain makes absolutely no difference.
Yes! All of our products reflect UV rays to limit heat absorption, slow aging and prevent discolouration.
No, nanosilica does not change fire susceptibility, as tested by UL Standards under Fire standard UL790 (Class A shingles remain Class A).
(See UL Standards – Fireproofing – Standard 790)
Several Centuries.
Even though nanoscience is fairly recent, in the Middle Ages nanoparticles were used to dye glass. Today, we use it in a scientific way to benefit from the superior properties of nanoparticles across multiple applications.
One treatment will increase residential roofs’ lifespan by 10 to 15 years, and therefore does not need to be applied again, though we could increase even further the added lifespan by applying a second treatment halfway through the established added lifespan for the roof in question (though again, no scientific testing was conducted on the lifespan effect of 2 treatments, but that is also currently in development).
One treatment is effective, but applying two treatments will enhance the following aspects:
1. Hailstorm resistance.
2. Wind resistance.
3. Water infiltration resistance.
4. The hypothetical lifespan
(Please note that the effects of two applications have not been scientifically tested yet, but it is being considered).
A second treatment may be requested for unusually extreme weather conditions.
Yes, GoNano is considered an environmentally friendly roof coating. It extends the life of existing asphalt roofs by 10–15 years, reducing landfill waste from premature roof replacements. The product is non-toxic, safe for humans, plants, and pets, and is categorized as "quickly biodegradable" with no bioaccumulation potential.
