Roofing Chemicals are used to protect buildings and their roofs from weather conditions like rain, hail, sleet, snow, ice, and ultraviolet rays. They are also used to repair damaged or leaking roofs. These chemicals have properties such as low combustible content, reliable adhesion, dirt resistance, and high elasticity among others. 

Sodium hydroxide is one of the common Roofing Chemicals used to clean asphalt shingles. It is usually mixed with water and applied to the roof shingle surface using a sprayer or other applicator. It is effective for cleaning a wide range of materials and removing algae, mold, mildew, and other contaminants from roofing surfaces.

Calcined Calcium Chloride is another common roofing chemicals, often called “pool bleach”. It is used as a cleaning agent to remove grease from fast-food restaurant roofs and can be applied to the roof shingles with a pressure washer or other applicator. It is an efficient cleaner, however, can create a white haze over the entire surface that must be rinsed off.

Commercial grade bleach is available for purchase in large 55 gallon drums and is used to clean a variety of building exteriors. It is usually used for high-pressure washing, and can be diluted with a detergent to make it more workable. Homeowners can purchase bleach for cleaning their own roofs at a local grocery store, however, it is best to avoid the cheapest brand. For homeowners using bleach to clean their roofs, it is important to get the bleach with a concentration of at least 5.75%.

Furthermore, galvanized coatings are metallic coatings that can be used to protect a metal roof from corrosion. They are most commonly used in galvanized iron roofing, however, can be applied to copper, aluminum, or zinc roofing as well. The benefits of galvanized coatings include increased corrosion protection and improved fire resistance, as well as a longer life span. They are also easy to install, and can be applied directly to the bare metal of a roof. In July 2021, Sika announced the acquisition of American Hydrotech Inc. in the U.S. and Hydrotech Membrane Corporation in Canada, who specializes in liquid membrane manufacturing and provides full-system roofing and waterproofing solutions.
