What the sun breaks down. What the treatment restores.

An asphalt shingle is asphalt, a fiberglass mat and a coat of mineral granules. When the asphalt dries out, the shingle starts failing from the inside.

  • 01The oils bake out.Heat and UV break down the asphalt that holds a shingle together.
  • 02Cracks start.Dry asphalt can't flex through hot days and cool nights, so it splits.

How the soy treatment works

Same roof. Very different bill.

A replacement tears off shingles that often still have years left. Rejuvenation keeps the roof you already paid for.

Lab data · SoyLei APEX-1132

Real lab numbers, not a sales pitch.

Brian picked APEX-1132 because its makers, a team that came out of Iowa State University, publish their numbers. Here is how it compares with an untreated shingle and a leading competitor.

Granule adhesion improvement

Granules shield the shingle from the sun. Holding more of them means better hail resistance.

A note from the owner

Most roofs I look at aren't worn out. They're dried out. That's a much cheaper problem, if somebody catches it in time.

I started in remodeling, worked as a Class B general contractor, then built a fence company here in Asheboro and sold it. That business taught me to pick one trade and do it right.

Roof rejuvenation is that trade now. I chose APEX-1132 because the people who make it are scientists who publish their numbers. I'm a numbers guy. I wanted to see the data before I put anything on your roof.

I look at every roof myself. If yours is too far gone, I'll tell you, and the assessment is still free.

Straight answers.

The questions people ask most, answered plainly.

All questions

Does roof rejuvenation really work?

On the right roof, yes. Asphalt shingles dry out as the sun bakes the oils out of them. APEX-1132 soaks in and restores flexibility, and in lab testing it improved granule adhesion by 50%. It works on aging shingles that are still sound, not on a roof that is already failing. How it works.

How much does it cost?

It is priced by the size of the roof. It usually runs around 20% of a replacement, and replacements around Asheboro commonly start near $20,000. See the cost breakdown or get an instant estimate.

How long does it last?

Each treatment adds up to about 5 years of life and carries a 5-year transferable warranty. You can treat again about every 5 years, for up to about 15 extra years in total.

Is it safe for my family, pets and plants?

APEX-1132 is made from soybean oil. It is USDA BioPreferred certified at 96% biobased content, biodegradable, pH neutral and has no flash point.

Will it change the color of my roof?

Treated shingles usually look a little darker and richer, because dry shingles look chalky and pale. It is not a paint or a coating. It soaks into the shingle.

What areas do you serve?

Asheboro and towns within about 40 miles, including Randleman, Ramseur, Seagrove, Liberty, Archdale, Trinity and Greensboro. See all areas.
