Out of sight
A casita or studio roof often gets less attention than the main house. It may have been built later, by a different builder, with a different roof. It may not be checked for years. And because these buildings may be used less often, a leak can go unnoticed until damage is done.
What we coat
- Guest casitas and in-law units
- Art and pottery studios
- Detached garages and workshops
- Covered portals and patio roofs
- Well houses and storage rooms

Do them together
When we're already set up for the main house, adding the casita or studio usually costs less than coating it on its own later. It also keeps all the roofs on the same schedule.
Low-slope additions
Portal and patio roofs are often very flat, and some were built with little or no slope. Those are prime spots for ponding. They may need foam to build up slope or a silicone coating.
Studios with skylights
Art studios often have skylights or clerestory windows for light. Each one is a potential leak point and gets sealed as part of the job.
Call (505) 588-5928 and tell us about all the roofs on your property.
Common questions
Is there a minimum job size?
Very small roofs may have a minimum charge. Adding them to a main house job usually helps.
Can you coat an old rolled roofing casita?
Often yes, after cleaning, repairs and the right primer. We'll check its condition first.
