Go Nano Roof Spray Application
Go Nano Roof Spray Application
Professional application with controlled, even coverage to help reduce moisture absorption and slow weather-driven surface wear on compatible roofing systems.
## What Is Go Nano Roof Spray Application? Go Nano is a nano-ceramic roof surface protectant applied by spray to create a hydrophobic barrier on asphalt shingle roofs. When professionally applied by Gates Restoration, it bonds to the surface and helps reduce moisture absorption, slow UV degradation, and extend the functional life of your roof. This isn't a cosmetic treatment—it's a protective coating designed to address the two primary causes of premature roof aging: water intrusion and UV exposure. ## Who Is It For? Go Nano application is ideal for homeowners with roofs that are: - **5–15 years old** and showing early signs of aging (granule loss, slight curling) - **Structurally sound** but in need of added protection before the next heavy season - **Due for replacement in 3–7 years** and looking to extend life and delay that cost It is not a substitute for a damaged or failing roof. If your roof has active leaks, structural issues, or extensive granule loss, we'll address those with repairs first. ## Our Application Process Every Go Nano application through Gates Restoration follows a strict four-step process to ensure even coverage and lasting performance. ### Step 1: Roof Assessment Before any treatment is applied, we perform a thorough visual inspection of your roof. We check shingle condition, flashing integrity, valley drainage, and ridge caps. If we find anything that needs repair, we'll tell you clearly—and we can handle it before proceeding. ### Step 2: Surface Preparation A clean, dry surface is essential for proper bonding. We remove debris, moss, and loose granules from areas to be treated. This prep step is what separates a professional application from a DIY result. ### Step 3: Go Nano Application Our team applies Go Nano using a controlled spray process. We work in overlapping passes to ensure complete coverage with no dry spots or runs. The product is applied in weather-appropriate conditions—we won't spray in rain, high winds, or extreme cold. ### Step 4: Post-Application Walkthrough After application, we walk the roof to confirm coverage quality. We document the work and provide you with written maintenance guidance for the seasons ahead. ## Frequently Asked Questions **How long does Go Nano last?** Longevity depends on roof condition, climate, and maintenance. We set clear expectations after your inspection based on what we see. **Will Go Nano stop leaks?** It improves water resistance, but it isn't a leak repair product. Any active leak sources are addressed before application. **Does my roof need to be replaced before applying Go Nano?** No—Go Nano is specifically for roofs that are aging but still structurally sound. Replacement is for roofs that have failed.

Common Questions
Go Nano is a roof surface protectant that is spray-applied to an existing roof to improve water resistance and slow weather-related wear. It adds a protective layer to the shingle surface rather than replacing anything, so it is a way to extend the life of the roof you already have — not a repair and not a replacement. It is intended for roofs that are aging but still structurally sound.
Most homes are completed in a single day. Larger roofs, or roofs that need repairs or heavy cleaning first, can take longer, and application requires dry weather — so Minnesota rain can push a scheduled date. You will have a firm schedule after the roof evaluation, before any work begins.
Yes. We take care to protect plants, walkways, and siding during application. Go Nano is designed for outdoor use and our team follows standard precautions to prevent overspray on surrounding surfaces.
On the right roof, yes — with a realistic definition of "work." Roof rejuvenation is designed to reduce how much water an aging shingle absorbs and slow the surface degradation caused by UV and freeze-thaw cycling, which extends how long a sound roof stays serviceable. What it does not do is repair damage, stop an existing leak, restore a failed roof, or make a roof permanent. If anyone describes the outcome in stronger terms than that, be skeptical.
They get searched for interchangeably, but they are different products aimed at different problems. Traditional roof coatings are acrylic, silicone, or elastomeric systems built mainly for flat and commercial roofs, and they work by laying a thick film over the surface. Roof rejuvenation products are formulated specifically for aging asphalt shingles on sloped residential roofs. If you have been quoted a "roof coating" for an asphalt shingle roof, ask exactly which product is being used and what it is designed to do.
