What is roof rejuvenation?
Roof rejuvenation restores an aging asphalt-shingle roof instead of replacing it. A penetrating nano-treatment soaks into the shingle and re-bonds with the asphalt, restoring the flexibility and water repellency that UV and heat strip away — adding years of life without a tear-off.
Does roof rejuvenation actually work?
Yes, on a structurally sound roof. GoNano™ has been validated in over $1M of independent lab testing (UL, Green Centre Canada, CNETE) — it restores flexibility, stops granule loss, and raises impact resistance to UL 2218 Class 3 after one coat and Class 4 after two. It will not fix widespread missing shingles, rot, or active leaks.
What is GoNano?
GoNano™ is a nanotechnology roof treatment that penetrates asphalt shingles and bonds with the asphalt at the molecular level. Unlike a surface coating, it becomes part of the shingle — restoring flexibility and adding hail, wind, UV, and fire resistance. It has protected 50,000+ roofs across North America.
Is GoNano the same as a roof coating?
No. A coating sits on top of the shingle and washes away in a few years; GoNano’s nano-particles (about 40–60 nanometers) penetrate the shingle and bond with the asphalt itself. It is 100% breathable, so it repels rain without trapping moisture — the flaw that makes coatings blister and peel.
Cost & Savings
How much does roof rejuvenation cost in Texas?
Roof rejuvenation typically costs up to 75% less than a full replacement — often less than a single Texas wind/hail deductible. A DFW replacement runs $22,000–$45,000+, while a GoNano treatment is a fraction of that. Exact pricing depends on your roof’s size and condition; a free drone assessment gives a firm number.
Is roof rejuvenation cheaper than replacing my roof?
Yes — significantly. It preserves the roof you already have for up to 75% less than a tear-off, with no dumpsters, no crew walking your shingles, and most jobs finished in a single day.
Performance & Lifespan
How long does roof rejuvenation last?
A single GoNano™ treatment adds roughly 5–20 years of roof life depending on the product and your roof’s condition, and it can be reapplied on cycle to keep protecting the roof indefinitely. It’s backed by a written warranty from 5 up to 20 years.
Does GoNano improve hail resistance?
Yes. In UL 2218 impact testing, GoNano-treated aged shingles reached Class 3 after one coat and Class 4 (the highest rating) after two — up to a 3× improvement over untreated aged shingles.
How can I make my roof shingles last longer?
Keep the roof clear of debris, maintain attic ventilation, clean gutters, and treat moss and algae early. The single most effective step is slowing the oxidation inside the shingle — exactly what a GoNano™ nano-treatment does, adding 5–20 years of life on a sound roof.
Insurance
Will roof rejuvenation help with my insurance?
It can. GoNano-treated shingles test to UL 2218 Class 4, and many Texas carriers offer a premium discount for impact-resistant roofs — the Texas Department of Insurance encourages it. Every treatment comes with documentation you can submit to your carrier. Ask your agent whether your policy offers the discount.
Do I need to tell my insurance company before treating my roof?
You don’t need their permission — it’s maintenance on a roof you own, not a claim or policy change. It’s worth a call for a different reason: to ask about an impact-resistant (Class 4) roof discount. See our guide on what to tell your insurance agent.
The Drone Process
How is GoNano applied?
By drone. Texas Roof Rescue is the only company in North America that applies GoNano™ from the air — our FAA Part 107 pilots fly the roof, capture an engineering-grade condition report, and apply the treatment evenly with our purpose-built Roof Hawk™ drone. No crew walks your shingles, and most roofs finish in a single day.
Is my roof a good candidate for rejuvenation?
Good candidates are asphalt-shingle roofs roughly 5–20 years old that are structurally sound — no widespread missing shingles, rot, or active leaks — with granule loss, fading, or brittleness starting to show. A free drone assessment gives you an honest answer: protect, repair, or replace.
Warranty & Availability
What warranty comes with GoNano?
GoNano™ carries a written limited warranty from 5 up to 20 years — Boost (up to 5), Revive (up to 10), Fortify (up to 15), and Fortify Elite (up to 20 years plus 5-year hail coverage). It’s transferable once to a new owner and includes a 3-step remedy of free inspection, free re-treatment, and a shingle-material allowance.
Does GoNano void my shingle manufacturer warranty?
No. Federal law (the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act) protects you — you keep your existing shingle manufacturer warranty and gain GoNano’s written product warranty on top of it.
