What San Diego Homeowners Say
Real Results from Real Neighbors
"My roof is only 4 years old and I couldn't believe the amount of granular loss from the shingles I found in my gutters. I was educated on the power of the GoNano protective coating. What a great solution for property owners!"
Verified Homeowner
"GoNano protects from hail and reduces the likelihood of not having adequate insurance coverage. Nothing is coming off the roof like I saw before the coating was applied. The product has kept its integrity."
Verified Homeowner
"GoNano was cheaper than replacing my roof. The product helps preserve my existing roof that had lost particles. It gave me more time before replacement would be required. I've recommended GoNano to friends."

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Is my roof a good candidate for GoNano treatment?
GoNano works best on asphalt shingle roofs that are structurally sound but showing signs of aging like granule loss, brittleness, or fading. Roofs with significant damage or active leaks need repair first.
How long does the treatment last?
GoNano's nano-ceramic coating extends roof life by 10–15 years. The nanosilica bonds at the molecular level with the asphalt binder, creating permanent protection against UV degradation.
How does this compare to a full roof replacement?
Treatment costs 80% less than full replacement — saving San Diego homeowners $8,000–$18,000 on average. If your roof is structurally sound, GoNano protection is the smarter investment.
How long does the application take?
Most homes are completed in 2–4 hours. No scaffolding, no mess, no disruption. Your roof is treated and drying the same day.
