Third Treatment, Going on 18 Years

Stockton, CA  ·  January 2026

✓  18-Year Roof Still Going

The Challenge

When the Garcias first called us in 2016, their roof was 13 years old and starting to show its age. Granule loss was advancing, the shingles had lightened significantly in color, and two minor leaks had developed around flashings.

We repaired the flashings and applied the first RoofMaxx treatment. Then in 2021, we came back for the second. Now, in 2026, we're applying the third treatment to what is now an 18-year-old roof that is still performing like a much newer one. The deck is solid, the flashings are good, and there have been zero significant leaks in 10 years.

Our Approach

We followed a systematic process to assess the situation and develop the right solution:

1

2016: Flashing repairs + first RoofMaxx treatment

2

Annual inspection at years 1, 3, and 5 to monitor shingle condition

3

2021: Second RoofMaxx treatment at the recommended 5-year interval

4

2023: Proactive vent boot replacement on 3 units showing early wear

5

2026: Third RoofMaxx treatment — extending life toward 23 years

The Solution

Ongoing RoofMaxx maintenance program. Three treatments over 10 years at approximately $5,000–$6,500 each treatment. Total investment: ~$16,500 vs an estimated $36,000 replacement at year 13.

The Outcome

18-Year Roof Still Going

Roof is now 18 years old and projected to reach 23+ years with one more treatment. Estimated total savings vs a year-13 replacement: $19,500+.

“They've been coming to my house for 10 years. Every time it's the same thing — honest, fast, and they explain everything. I'm going to keep this roof as long as they'll let me.”
