Right, grab yourself a cuppa and get comfy because today we’re going to talk about something that affects us all: energy bills. It’s safe to say rising energy bills are something we would all like to change. But what if we told you there’s a surprisingly effective way to reduce them that doesn’t involve switching suppliers or wearing three jumpers indoors?
Yep, we’re talking about your roof. More specifically, how working with a professional roof coating company (like us at Universal Eco Homes) can make your home more energy-efficient, more comfortable, and yes, easier on your wallet.
Energy Efficiency Starts at the Top
Your roof is the first line of defence against the elements. It takes the brunt of the summer sun and the full force of those chilly winter winds. And if it’s not properly protected, it could be letting precious heat escape during winter and absorbing too much heat during summer. That’s a lose-lose when it comes to your energy bills.
That’s where a roof coating company with professional roof coaters (not just roof cleaners!) come in. By expertly applying advanced coatings like ProPERLA, we can help your home work smarter, not harder.
What Makes ProPERLA So Special?
We’re glad you asked. ProPERLA is a revolutionary range of waterproof, breathable coatings that are designed to improve your home’s thermal performance. We’re proud to say that we’re the only ProPERLA Platinum Approved Applicator within 140 miles of Colchester, which means we know exactly how to apply it to get maximum results.
When applied by a trained roof coating company, ProPERLA products:
- Reflect heat during hot weather, keeping your home cooler
- Prevent heat loss through the roof and walls during winter
- Repel water while still allowing surfaces to breathe
- Reduce damp, mould and condensation issues
Basically, it acts like a thermal jacket for your home, keeping the warmth in and the elements out. The benefits of ProPERLA don’t end there. ProPERLA are so confident in their product range that they offer a minimum 10-year guarantee and 25-year life expectancy, giving you peace of mind that once applied, these roof coatings will last.
Not Every Roof Coating Company Is Created Equal
There’s a big difference between a team that cleans your roof and one that coats it properly. While many companies may offer roof coatings as an ‘add-on’ service after a roof cleaning, they often don’t have the skills, experience, or certifications to do it right.
We don’t just dabble. We specialise. We’re not only a trusted roof coating company; we’re also trained roof cleaners, so we know exactly how to prepare your roof before any coatings are applied. That’s crucial because a poorly cleaned roof means the coating won’t adhere properly, which means no energy savings and a waste of money. Not ideal.
So, whether you’re looking for roof cleaning in Essex or the full works with a ProPERLA roof or wall coating, you’re in the safest (and most experienced) hands with us, the most trusted roof coating company in Essex.
Let’s Talk Real Savings
We get it, home improvement can sometimes feel like a bottomless pit of spending. But roof and wall coatings are one of those rare upgrades that genuinely pay for themselves over time.
By improving thermal efficiency, your heating system doesn’t have to work as hard in winter, and your fans or air-con (if you have one!) won’t be battling the heat as much in summer. That translates to lower energy usage and lower energy bills.
And let’s be honest: Who isn’t looking for ways to cut back on household costs right now?
Roof Coating Company vs Roof Cleaning Company: What’s the Difference?
We’re often asked, “Can’t I just get a roof cleaning company to do the job?” Well, not if you want lasting results. Roof cleaning is important- no doubt about it. We offer expert roof cleaning in Essex to prepare your roof properly. But roof coatings? That’s a different beast.
Only a professional roof coating company like ours has the tools, training, and ProPERLA approval to apply the coating correctly. Our team physically gets onto your roof (none of this spray-it-from-the-ground nonsense), ensuring a seamless, even application that will genuinely improve your home’s energy efficiency.
The Ultimate Win-Win for Homeowners
By investing in ProPERLA roof and wall coatings, you’re not just lowering your energy bills. You’re also:
- Extending the lifespan of your roof
- Improving the appearance of your home
- Preventing costly repairs down the line
- Increasing your home’s value
- Reducing environmental impact
All with the peace of mind that comes from working with a family-run roof coating company that’s been in the game for over 30 years, has over 1000 glowing reviews on Trust a Trader, and puts customer service above all else.
