GoNano nanotechnology bonds with your existing asphalt shingles at the molecular level — adding 10 to 15 years of life and upgrading to Class 4 impact resistance. For about a third the cost of replacement, and a fraction of the disruption.
Three tests, one outcome: the GoNano-treated shingle halves took no damage while the untreated halves cracked, punctured, and shed granules. We ran the test ourselves — shingles recovered from a roof we'd just replaced, the lower half of each treated with GoNano, the upper half left bare, then simulated hail fired at full force across the seam.
Same shingles. Same impacts. The only variable was the coating.
This was our in-house impact test on shingles from one roof — it's what we saw with our own eyes, not a laboratory certification. Results may vary with roof type, age, and condition. Independent third-party test data is available from GoNano, and GoNano-treated roofs carry a UL 2218 Class 4 impact rating.
For most Colorado roofs in the 8-to-20-year window, the question isn't "should I replace?" — it's "do I really need to?" Here's what the numbers look like for a typical Denver home.
GoNano is a sprayable nanoparticle coating — not a paint, not an oil treatment, not a temporary topcoat. The nanoparticles are 40 to 60 nanometers across, which is small enough to penetrate the shingle itself rather than sitting on top of it.
Once inside, they react with the shingle's existing material to form chemical bonds that restore flexibility, seal micro-cracks, and reinforce the structure from within. Think of it less like waterproofing a deck and more like the difference between painting a wall and rebuilding it.
The science is sophisticated. The application is straightforward. Here's what actually happens when GoNano hits your shingles.
Nanoparticles (40–60 nm) are sprayed onto the shingle surface. They're small enough to soak in rather than sit on top — like a stain rather than a paint.
The silica-based particles react with the asphalt's existing molecular structure, forming new chemical bonds known as S1 particles. The shingle is reinforced from within.
Flexibility returns to brittle shingles. Hairline cracks seal. UV-damaged areas regain their structural integrity. Color comes back, too — the discoloration from years of sun fades.
The cured coating creates a hydrophobic barrier. Water beads and runs off instead of soaking in. Impact resistance jumps to Class 3 or Class 4. Done in a single day.
Six concrete reasons GoNano is the smartest move for the right roof — and a quick gut-check on whether yours is the right roof.
Buy back the decade you'd otherwise be spending on a brand-new replacement project.
Upgraded from standard Class 1 or 3. Critical in a state where hail damage drives most claims.
For typical Denver homes, GoNano runs roughly one-third the price of full asphalt replacement.
Penetrates rather than coating the surface, which preserves manufacturer warranty coverage.
No tear-off. No dumpster in the driveway. No multi-day disruption. Sprayed on, cured within hours.
One application keeps several tons of old shingle off the landfill — and out of Colorado's growing waste stream.
Roofs in Colorado don't age the way roofs in Ohio or Georgia do. We deal with three specific destroyers — and GoNano addresses all three.
Colorado averages more hail claims per capita than almost any state in the country. GoNano upgrades shingles to Class 4 impact resistance — the highest rating recognized by insurance carriers and a major factor in withstanding the storms we get every spring and summer.
Denver sits at 5,280 feet. That's about 25% more UV exposure than sea level. Shingles dry out, lose flexibility, and crack faster than the industry-standard 25-year lifespan suggests. GoNano restores the flexibility UV took away.
Colorado roofs go through 80–100 freeze-thaw cycles a winter. Water seeps into micro-cracks, expands, widens the cracks. GoNano's hydrophobic barrier keeps water from soaking in — and stops the cycle before it starts.
Side-by-side: what happens if you do nothing, what happens with GoNano, what happens with a full replacement. The honest version, not the sales pitch.

GoNano is a sprayable nanoparticle coating that bonds with asphalt shingles at the molecular level. The nanoparticles measure 40–60 nanometers — small enough to penetrate the shingle itself rather than sit on top. Once cured, the coating restores flexibility, seals micro-cracks, and adds 10–15 years of roof life.
Roughly one-third the price of a full roof replacement in the Denver metro area. For a roof where replacement would run $15,000–$22,000, a GoNano application generally falls between $5,000–$8,000 depending on roof size, pitch, and complexity. We provide free, written quotes for every job.
GoNano comes with a 15-year warranty on asphalt shingle applications (10-year warranty on concrete and wood coatings). In real-world Colorado conditions — hail, intense UV at altitude, freeze-thaw cycles — homeowners can expect a full decade-plus of added life from a single application.
No. GoNano doesn't void asphalt shingle manufacturer warranties. The coating penetrates and bonds with the shingle rather than forming a surface film, which is the key technical reason it preserves warranty coverage.
Possibly. GoNano upgrades standard shingles to Class 3 or Class 4 impact resistance under official North American testing. Many Colorado homeowner insurance carriers offer premium discounts for Class 4 impact-rated roofs — meaningful in a state with as much hail as ours. Check with your specific carrier and policy. We can provide the certification documentation your insurer will want.
Different technology. Roof Maxx uses a soybean-oil-based formula that temporarily softens shingles and wears off over time. GoNano uses inorganic nanosilica particles that form permanent chemical bonds with the shingle structure. The result is a longer-lasting, harder-impact-rated solution — though it does come at a higher price point.
One day, start to finish, for most homes. We arrive in the morning, clean the roof surface (removing dirt, debris, algae), then spray-apply the GoNano coating using targeted equipment. It cures within two hours — rain after that point doesn't affect it. No tear-off, no dumpster, no debris in your yard.
Free inspection. Honest assessment. We'll tell you whether GoNano is right for your roof — and if it isn't, we'll tell you that too.
