Typically, shingles that are five to ten years old begin to show signs of aging and granule loss, making them good candidates for a preservation treatment with Renueit®17 from Roof Savers® before they start to curl and become brittle. Shingles that are already curled at the edges, have severe granule loss, or show other significant damage may not qualify for the preservation process.

Shingle preservation typically costs about 20%-30% of what a full replacement would.

In the USA, the average cost of roof replacement is $10,000.00 on a 2,500 sq ft house

A certified Renueit® dealer will inspect your roof's condition and qualify it for the preservation process based on the size, pitch, and condition of the roof.

By treating your shingles with Renueit®17, you can extend their lifespan by at least 17 years beyond their expected durability. (For example, a ten-year-old shingle may have 5–8 years left; with treatment, that can be extended by an additional 17 years with Renueit®17.) That said, no reputable solar company will install panels on a failing roof. This type of treatment offers both homeowners and solar companies another option and a longer timeframe before roof replacement becomes necessary.

Renueit®17 shingle preservation revives aging asphalt shingles, helping to prevent problems like cracking and granule loss. Soft washing with sodium hypochlorite uses a bleach-based solution to remove organic stains such as algae and moss, improving the roof’s appearance without harming the shingles. Shingle preservation focuses on extending the life and performance of the shingles, while soft washing addresses cosmetic concerns—each serving a distinct purpose in roof maintenance.

We clean your roof first, then treat your shingles with Renueit®17. Effectively eliminating moss, algae, and black streaks and keeping it off for years to come.

It really depends on the insurance company—most agree that maintaining shingles helps save both them and homeowners money over time. Any inspector would see a treated shingle and recognize that it performs like new: it’s holding granules in place and remains flexible.

No, in order to get our 17-year warranty with one application, one treatment and one payment, please make sure the roofing company that you hire is an Authorized Renueit® Dealer.

Roof Savers® North America LLC has no relationship with roofing companies using the Roof Savers® name unless they are designated as Authorized Renueit® Dealers.

No, these allegations are not only false, they are unsubstantiated, fraudulently misleading and defamatory.

Our competitor falsely alleges that Roof Savers infringes proposed claims of a pending patent application by Hendershot (US20240209633A1 entitled “Method for Application of Protective Roof Coating”) if it were to be issued as a patent. 

Firstly, the Hendershot patent application cannot issue because its subject matter has been disclosed from 1950-1970 and is thus, in the public domain. *

Secondly, Roof Savers has obtained an opinion letter from its patent counsel that they do not practice the method disclosed in Hendershot and thus, cannot infringe the claims even if it were to issue.

Thirdly, Roof Savers has filed its own patent application for its innovative process that teaches away from Hendershot.

Fourthly, Roof Savers is well prepared to defend its products and processes from any allegations of infringement and upon issuance, we are more than ready to enforce our patents.

Apparently, our competitor’s soy methyl ester and its 5 year warranty cannot fairly compete with the superiority of our patent pending Renueit products and its 17 year warranty, resorting to interfering with our business using false and misleading statements about Roof Savers.



* The crux of the patent application is based on applying a sealant on a roof shingle using an airless low pressure sprayer starting from the top of the roof and going downward and then curing. The subject matter of the pending claims is not patentable because there are numerous prior art references that pre-date Hendershot's priority date of December 2022. In fact, Graco introduced the airless paint sprayer in 1958.1 The concept of spraying a concrete roof coating first occurred in 1958 and in 1960, it became prevalent as roof coatings materials developed.2 In the 1960s, polyurethane foam was sprayed utilizing these airless sprayers.3 In the late 1960s, new mixtures such as silicone were sprayed using airless devices.4 In the late 1970s, acrylic roof coatings were applied on roofs using airless sprayers.5 It is well documented that all these materials have a curing step.6 Furthermore, there are numerous manuals, videos and publications showing coatings being applied to roofs from top to bottom using airless sprayers 7 (including devices attached to backpacks 8). Even if this application were to be issued as a patent, there are numerous prior art references that would invalidate this patent.

Absolutely not. These false and misleading statements by our competitors are unsubstantiated, made solely to interfere with Roof Savers business and deceive our potential customers from using Renueit products.

Renueit customers are indemnified from patent infringement cases and thus, such cases do not affect Renueit's 17 year warranty and the homeowner's insurance policy. Furthermore, the Hendershot patent application, if it were to issue as a patent, relates to the method of application and has nothing to do with a product so homeowners cannot be justifiably sued. The Renuiet formulation is patent pending and our innovative 5 step process is also patent pending so customers are further protected from any liability.
