What Makes Roof Coating Companies ‘Certified’? And Why It Matters

At Universal Eco Homes, we speak to many homeowners looking for roof coating companies they can rely on. Whether they’re searching for commercial exterior roof cleaning, comparing different roof coaters, or booking a house roof cleaning service, one key question always comes up – what makes some roof coating companies “certified”, and why should it influence your decision?

What Certification Really Means For Roof Coating Companies

For roof coating companies, being certified isn’t just a nice-to-have; it’s a clear sign of professionalism, training, and quality assurance. Certified teams have been trained by product manufacturers to apply coatings properly and safely. We’re proud to be one of the few Platinum Approved ProPERLA Applicators in the UK, having completed extensive hands-on training to meet the highest standards in the industry.

And for extra peace of mind, ProPERLA comes with a 10-year warranty for all colour coatings on roofs and walls, a 10-year warranty for clear coatings on roofs, and a 20-year warranty on clear coatings for walls

When you work with certified roof coating companies, you do gain access to genuine manufacturer-backed guarantees. These aren’t just in-house promises – they’re supported by the coating supplier, which gives you extra peace of mind. In short, certification proves that your chosen team is doing things the right way, using the correct products with the correct methods.

Health and safety also play a major role. Certified roof coating companies follow strict guidelines to protect both workers and homeowners. This includes proper chemical handling, safe working at height, and environmentally responsible practices.

Why Choosing Certified Roof Coating Companies Matters

Choosing a certified team can make a huge difference to the results you see with your home. A properly trained applicator will know how to achieve an even, lasting finish – one that protects your tiles, improves water resistance, and even boosts energy efficiency, as we explain in more detail in our guide to the benefits of ProPERLA roof coatings.

Certification is also a sign that your chosen team stays up to date with the latest technology, techniques, and product developments. It reflects a long-term commitment to quality, not just a quick job.

How to Tell If You’re Dealing With Certified Roof Coaters

If you’re comparing roof coaters, look for evidence of certification and official recognition from product manufacturers. Check for accreditation logos, training credentials, or named status – like our Platinum Approved ProPERLA Applicator title.
