Saving a 17-Year-Old Rooftop in the Midwest from Costly Replacement

Bob Bland lives in Chicago, IL, where extreme weather—think heavy winds, freezing winters, and sweltering summers—can do serious damage to rooftops. When his 17-year-old asphalt shingle roof started showing signs of wear, Bob decided to get quotes for a full replacement. To his shock, contractors were quoting him between $80,000 and $90,000 for the job.

That’s when Bob decided to explore other options. Instead of jumping into such an expensive project, he did his homework and discovered Roof Maxx. “At first, I was skeptical,” he admits, “but the more I researched it, I thought, this makes sense.”

Bob chose Roof Maxx’s rejuvenation treatment, which restored the flexibility of his aging shingles and gave him peace of mind without the hefty price tag. “Roof Maxx made it less anxiety,” Bob says. “We like the restore vs. buy solution. There’s no doubt in my mind that we’ve extended the life of our roof.”

Preventing Major Costs in the Desert Heat

Sheri Gerber, based in Reno, NV, knows the value of being proactive when it comes to home maintenance. The scorching desert sun can age asphalt shingles quickly, and Sheri wanted to avoid a costly re-roof in the near future. When she learned about Roof Maxx, it seemed like the perfect solution.

“For me, it’s more peace of mind,” Sheri says. “To know that if we do something to preserve it now, it’s not going to cost us a fortune later.” By choosing Roof Maxx, Sheri was able to extend the life of her roof without the need for a full replacement.

And Sheri is already thinking ahead: “I’m absolutely looking forward to having a second treatment done. If I can keep putting off having to do a complete re-roof, I’m going to do that. That makes more sense.”

Revitalizing a 21-Year-Old Roof in Stormy Ohio

Doug Lowe’s home in Columbus, Ohio, has seen more than its fair share of storms over the past two decades. His roof, now 21 years old, had endured harsh weather conditions and was starting to show its age. But after having Roof Maxx treat his roof, Doug couldn’t believe his eyes.

“Roof Maxx… when they treated the roof, the shingles looked like they did the day they went on,” Doug says. “This roof has seen some horrendous storms, and yet my roof looks like it was put on a few weeks ago instead of 21 years ago.”

Doug was especially impressed with how Roof Maxx’s oil-based product restored the shingles. “The new types of shingles don’t have the same quality. They dry out. But Roof Maxx revitalizes them.” And the process? Easy and mess-free. “It was just one or two guys up on the roof for the better part of a day,” Doug explains. “Much more efficient, and a fraction of the cost of a new roof.”

Tom Kraeutler, a veteran home inspector and host of the syndicated Money Pit radio show, has seen plenty of roofing products in his 20 years of experience. But when it came time to find a solution for his own roof in Poinciana, FL, Roof Maxx stood out as something different.

“After 20 years as a home inspector, I’ve seen a lot of treatments for roofs, and I’ve never seen one that actually works with the chemistry of the shingle like this one does,” Tom says. With his professional background, Tom knew the value of a treatment that could restore his roof’s flexibility at a fraction of the cost of replacement.

“I saw it as a really good alternative to a roof replacement,” Tom adds. Roof Maxx’s ability to extend his roof’s lifespan with minimal disruption and cost made it an easy choice for Tom, who knows firsthand how important roof maintenance is for any homeowner.
