roof sealant

Top coating substance

Roof sealant is a waterproof coating or compound applied to roofs to prevent leaks and protect against weather damage.

It fills cracks, seals joints, and creates a barrier against moisture: We applied roof sealant around the flashing where water had been getting in.

Available in various formulations—silicone, acrylic, polyurethane—for different roofing materials and conditions.
