Hobbs Roof Pros provides professional roof coatings & sealing in Hobbs, NM for residential and commercial properties across southeastern New Mexico. Coating crews arrive in Hobbs on the same schedule as everything else: when there is money in the county. They knock doors, they are persuasive, and a good share of what they sell here should not have been sold. So this page is mostly about when to say no.
Do not coat a steep-slope asphalt roof. There is no product that meaningfully extends the life of a worn laminate shingle, several are marketed as though there were, and the coating traps what little moisture gets in while voiding whatever manufacturer coverage you had left. If someone offers to spray your shingles in this town, the correct response is to end the conversation on the doorstep. We keep those two cases strictly separate on any proposal we write.
Do not coat over wet insulation. A single-ply or built-up roof that has taken water into the boards is a tear-off, and putting a membrane-in-a-bucket over it seals the water in with the deck. We cut test squares and take core readings before we quote any restoration, and roughly a third of the roofs we are asked to coat fail that test and get a different proposal.
There is a third reason particular to Lea County. A twenty-year silicone warranty is written on the assumption that the applicator returns for scheduled inspections and touch-ups. In a place where the contractor base contracts hard every time the rig count falls, that assumption deserves scrutiny. Ask who is obligated to come back, and ask what happens to the coverage if they are gone.
When coating is right, it is genuinely excellent value. A sound metal roof with intact panels and tired fasteners, or a modified bitumen roof with good seams and a weathered surface, restores beautifully. We prepare properly, wash the substrate down to clean metal or membrane, treat every seam and fastener with reinforcing fabric, and apply at a specified dry film thickness rather than a coverage rate.
The reflectivity is a real benefit at this latitude and sun angle and we will quantify it rather than wave at it. A high-albedo surface takes a meaningful bite out of afternoon deck temperature on a low-slope building, which shows up on a cooling bill in a Hobbs July. That is a reason to coat a roof that should be coated, and not a reason to coat one that should not.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — open metal valleys formed in 26-gauge Galvalume, high-temperature synthetic underlayment rated for hot decks, caliche fines cleared from scuppers and downspout boots, granule-surfaced SBS cap sheet set in cold adhesive, unvented roof assemblies built with above-deck polyiso, mechanically seamed Galvalume panels riding on expansion clips — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Hobbs and nearby communities including North Hobbs, Lovington, Eunice, Jal.

Materials, equipment and how we do roof coatings & sealing
The difference between roof coatings & sealing that lasts and roof coatings & sealing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with open metal valleys formed in 26-gauge Galvalume, high-temperature synthetic underlayment rated for hot decks, caliche fines cleared from scuppers and downspout boots, granule-surfaced SBS cap sheet set in cold adhesive, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Hobbs job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in southeastern New Mexico means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Hobbs Chooses Hobbs Roof Pros
- ✓We price the roof around the decade the house was built, because two thirds of Hobbs predates 1980 and the deck under it varies block by block.
- ✓Deck repair is a named unit price in the estimate rather than a change order discovered on the second morning of a tear-off.
- ✓We will talk you out of a coating, a claim, a skylight or a full gutter wrap when the honest answer is to spend nothing.
- ✓Material comes from Midland, Lubbock or El Paso, so we order before tear-off and plan the schedule around the real wait.
The standards behind roof coatings & sealing
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The roof coatings & sealing work we do in Hobbs follows published industry standards: NRCA publishes the Roofing Manual, the industry's reference for details and slope minimums, and Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association sets the shingle application and ventilation guidance the warranties reference. If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
Every roof coatings & sealing project in Hobbs gets the same attention, whether it is a single room or a full commercial job. We show up on schedule, keep the site clean, and stand behind the work — the estimate is free and there is no pressure.
