I just had this treatment done on my home in Central Florida on a 21 year old roof and all I can say is that it works as advertised. The shingles are flexible again and are laying back down like they should and the granules are adhering to the shingles. Great product. I highly recommend it.
@@jusdnx The cost varies based on roof square footage, roof pitch, accessibility and whether the roof needs a tune-up or any repairs beforehand. On average, the cost is 80% less than a full roof replacement or about $2,500. To get a better idea on what yours might cost, visit roofmaxx.com and fill out a Get a Quote form!
I saw it too. What a scam. I was actually considering this. If it worked he wouldn’t have to fake it. Let’s see that shingle bent back like the other and see the crease it leaves.
No hollywood tricks here! I just watched in 8 times and really think you are reading into it too much. We were just up on a roof testing before and after. We're happy to say that Roof Maxx works! It's been years of 4.9 stars and happy customers!
I'm glad other people caught that. The first corner he folds it completely flat on itself and presses down on it with his thumb to further define a crease. Even a brand new shingle will crease in the same manner. The second shingle he only lifts the corner not even at 90 degrees. The fact of the matter is those shingles still had flexibility left in them before the maxx stuff was even applied.
They failed on the folding test, but even brand new shingles will crease like that when folded back. Keeping the sand on the roof where it belongs is what will make the roof last longer. I bet linseed oil will give you a few more years too. It stays like a rubberized plastic for many years and would keep that sand in place.
i just tore up and redid my roof with easy 5 more yrs of life because i wanted to be able to do it while i was still mobile and healthy im 65 . roof max probably would have got me to the old age home . I like how they didnt try and keep a bunch of trade secrets i like to know what im getting .
Thanks so much for writing! It's all about options. Some folks would like you to think there are no other options and we're just putting it out there for just such a situation. If you just want to push it further and get more life out of your roof, Roof Maxx is a great option. We're impressed that you put your own roof on! Nice job!
Roof Maxx, as part of the reconditioning job, do you also offer services as needed such as initially cleaning excessive dirt or mold on shingles, or repairing roof pipe vents with deteriorated rubber seals or flashing that needs to be re-sealed?
Most of our dealers offer roof tune up, repairs and some even offer more. A roof tune up typically involves being sure plumbing boots, caulk and flashing are in order, and popped nail seals as needed.
Hi Arthur - you can find our warranty over at roofmaxx.com/warranty. A Roof Maxx treatment is good for 5 years and if your roof qualifies, you may be able to have two more treatments (once every 5 years) for up to 15 years of additional life added to your shingles.
Roof Maxx is a formulation derived from soybean oil. The main component is called Soy Methel Ester. The changes we made to the oil are important to make sure it is effective in making your roof flexible again, retain the granules and help to reseal the glue tabs. It's also formulated in such a way that it doesn't attract animal life. It's really a great product!
At this time, no. Roof Maxx can only be applied by a certified dealer in your area. To see if you have one nearby, you can visit roofmaxx.com and fill out the form on the page for a free assessment!
Hi there! Before all Roof Maxx treatments, our dealers usually spray down the area around the home so that the treatment easily rolls off everything around it (and then they usually spray down the area afterward, as well). Many times they will also go around to the neighbors and let them know what they're doing and can offer to do this with the neighbors, as well. I would just express your concern to the dealer at the time of service so they can address it when your home is treated.
Hi there! We have a lot of before/after pictures and tons of stories right here on our RUclips channel, on our Facebook page and on our website. You can head over to roofmaxx.com or facebook.com/roofmaxx.
Roof Maxx is only available through our Certified Dealers/Installers. We currently have no plans to offer Roof Maxx as a retail product. That being said, if you'd like to become a dealer, go to roofmaxxdealers.com Hope this helps!
Great video, I think I will try roof maxx. It's better than not doing anything about it. Who has $40,000 lying around to replace a roof. I seen people hosing their roof with motor oil to revitalize the shingle. I figure they've bought roofers a couple of Lamborghinis before. Waiting on single roll shingles to come with patterned shingled design to make it easier on the homeowner to replace. Essentially the staggering and measuring of regular shingles is the only science your paying for. Other than that any money with a compressor and an air gun can do it. Look at PEX, sharkbite, propress for plumbing and Romex for electrical. It's time for roofing materials to evolve for the DIYer. Sorry. I bought enough yachts for roofers.
Roof Maxx is USDA BioPreferred and safe for plants, pets, people and the environment. We've won a few environmental awards, including one this past summer from Real Leaders Magazine, the Eco Innovation Award. :)
No because concrete isn't made with oil nor does it absorb oil. Asphalt does though. Just ask your asphalt roads and parking lots that get treated before being torn out and replaced! This isn't a magic spray that will fix your broken vase or dirty carpet. This is specially designed to penetrate into asphalt and basically return it to it's newly manufactured flexibility. It's simple. a flexible roof is a roof that can expand, contract, won't break off and will properly repeal the elements.
Id like to see you fold over a brand new shingle just like you did the old shingle. I bet you breaks! Now if this works as you say it does, you would have bent the old shingle before and after to prove it's more flexible.
The brittleness test Mike is demonstrating here is the standard used by inspectors and insurance companies to know if a roof still has life left in it. New shingles will bend just like these old shingles after being treated with Roof Maxx. In other words, a brand new roof that does not pass that brittleness test would also not pass a proper roof inspection.
Our product is tried and tested and backed by almost 10,000 reviews with a 4.9 star rating. Having been doing this for about 8 years we're now spraying our customers roofs for a second time with our proven formula. Roof Maxx is formulated from sustainable crops instead of crude oil. Therefore, it's not subject to the high and dynamic price of crude oil derivatives like mineral oil. Hope this helps!
Sorry that we are currently available only in the US! Are there a lot of asphalt shingle roofs in Nigeria? I've only ever been to Lagos and didn't see any!
Hi there! If your roof is still in good working condition and not all crumbly and falling apart, it could certainly be a candidate for Roof Maxx. One of our certified dealers can come out and take a look to see if your roof qualifies. Visit roofmaxx.com and fill out the form on the page so that a dealer is notified that you'd like a free estimate!
I'm glad we've seen otherwise! Many of our customers have been getting their insurance continued -at rate- or switching to a more affordable provider who knows what Roof Maxx is capable of. Thanks so much for commenting.
Hi there! Having a leaky roof after having a Roof Maxx treatment is not an effect of the soy-based liquid that is sprayed on top of your shingles. That would likely mean there was a leak to begin with.
Hi B H, price varies depending on area of service and the size of your roof. To get an estimate on the price of a Roof Maxx treatment, you can check out our cost calculator tool on our website: roofmaxx.com/faqs/how-much-does-it-cost-to-have-roof-maxx-applied-to-my-roof/?fbclid=IwAR1cr5piXJB93I2QmWr0EjUzEDW2NLqhLx1iM2ksj5pkW4dMdpxPVPjJQpM#faq All things considered, a Roof Maxx treatment is about 80% less compared to a complete roof replacement. Not bad for adding five years of life to your roof.
Then you're in good company! Our founders have been in the traditional roofing industry since the 80's, when they decided they needed to branch off and develop a way for a roof to last longer back in 2013 (since the quality of the roofing materials of the 80's most certainly aren't the same in 2022). Technology has definitely changed over the years -- Roof Maxx is a plant based bio-oil treatment that absorbs into the asphalt shingle (it doesn't sit on top of the shingle like a sealant or a coating would).
What we spray on roofs is not a food grade vegetable oil but rather the main ingredient is a derivative from soybean oil called soy methel ester. If someone were to spray vegetable oil on your roof you would definitely have problems. But our product is a special formulation developed by the best, tested by the best and proven by thousands of glowing reviews!
Call product, but your bridle test was deceitful. If you’re gonna bend the shingle all the way back on your original inspection. You need to do the same on your follow up inspection.
Deceitful is a bit of a strong word since we did our best at the time to replicate the test, but I agree a bit of a more apples to apples is nice. That's why we've done a lot more of these tests in the six years since this video was made. You can see them on our channel! We also have lots of testimonials from extremely respected home inspectors since this time! As well as a number of return customers. I hope you get a chance to watch some of these to see that Roof Maxx works!
Couple things, first off, its a seal tab that's broken loose because the roof is too dry. Not always but often, dried seal tabs are rehydrated and can stick again. If not, our dealers are trained to address this. Regardless of of the seal tab sticks or not, Roof Maxx is the difference between a brittle shingle blowing up a little in wind and a flexible, heavier shingle blowing up a bit. You aren't going to have that breaking. It's all very scientific, thoroughly tested and our customers love it 5 and 10 years into their treatments! You should try it!
I got a quote from a Green Shingles company and a Roof Maxx company. The Greener Shingles company claimed that their soy based solution is far superior to Roof Maxx and that the Roof Maxx solution is mostly water - is this true. There is another Greener Shingles company on the youtube that is making the same claim.
Our locally owned dealers are typically responding to someone trying to qualify their roof to see if they can save thousands of dollars by avoiding a roof replacement. I'm very curious as to what your particular experience was. Let us know!
No need! Certified bio-based, all natural and typically very little overspray with the equipment we use! Don't worry about us, or your pets or your plants if we come to save you a bunch of money on your roof!
Can you see the gentleman is on top of a roof. It doesn't matter whether he is just spraying or changing shingles or repairing sheathing, it is a good practice to wear helmet.
Meanwhile, all kinds of satisfied customers are commenting and leaving positive reviews. It's not a scam! It's just the laws of nature! Have a great day.
We get this all the time for people who have never tried our product. Then when people try our product they leave us 5 star reviews. I think we're over 11,000 reviews now. Proof is in the pudding, right?
