How GoNano Treatments Can Save Homeowners Thousands in Repairs & Replacements

Most homeowners don’t think about their roof, wood structures, or concrete surfaces until there’s visible damage—but by then, the costs can be overwhelming. A new roof costs upwards of $20,000-$25,000 from a reputable company in 2025, while a full deck replacement can easily exceed $10,000. These major expenses can be avoided with proactive care. We'll dive into the financials of how a GoNano treatment can save you thousands below.

The True Cost of Neglecting Your Roof, Driveway, or Deck

GoNano treatments act as a protective barrier, extending the lifespan of your home’s most exposed surfaces. By sealing and strengthening materials, GoNano prevents deterioration from moisture, UV rays, and general wear and tear. Instead of waiting until repairs become unavoidable, homeowners can save thousands by maintaining their surfaces before problems arise.

The Financial Breakdown: Cost of Replacement vs. GoNano Treatment

Neglecting key home surfaces can lead to substantial replacement costs. Below is a cost comparison showing how GoNano treatments offer long-term savings:

In 2025, the average roof replacement cost for asphalt shingles ranges between $10-12 per square foot from a reputable local company in Nova Scotia. We strongly warn against hiring random individuals on Facebook Marketplace who will "do it for cheaper" to replace your roof - as we've witnessed many poorly installed roofs and heard even worse stories during our discussions with our customers - stay safe!

Now, back to the replacement costs. Assuming that a 2000 square foot roof will cost approximately $20,000 to reshingle in 2025 we can see there is significant savings over time when choosing a GoNano treatment. How? Simply put, shingles do not last nearly as long as they used to. Your shingle manufacturer might boast a 20 or 30 year warranty, however the warranties are prorated and essentially worthless after 10 years. The manufacturer can determine how many shingles they want to offer you for a replacement, if any, and it is still your responsibility to pay for labor to install them. Many home owners don't realize this, which ultimately leads to frustration and financial stress.

Shingles in the 60's used to weigh about 100lbs per bundle, now they weigh about 50lbs. Shingle manufacturers are making the shingles cheaper and less durable, which is why they only last about 15 years now if you are lucky. Long gone are the days of 30 year shingles.

However, when we apply our GoNano treatments to your shingles, we're able to change their chemistry and add an extra 10-15 years of additional life to them. Instead of replacing your $20,000 shingle job every 15 years, we can double their lifespan and make them last 30 years - saving you $16,700! A GoNano treatment is an investment in your roof, and future financial situation. The small investment today will compound and save you thousands in the future making it a smarter financial decision.

Why Repairs and Replacements Are So Expensive

  1. Material Costs Are Rising – The cost of asphalt shingles, lumber, and concrete has increased significantly in recent years due to supply chain issues and inflation.

  2. Labor Costs Are High – Skilled tradespeople charge thousands for full replacements, with labor often accounting for 50% or more of the total cost.

  3. Hidden Damage Can Add to the Bill – Roof replacements can uncover underlying issues like rot or insulation problems, adding thousands to the final price.

Homeowners Who Invest in Protection Win Big

GoNano treatments are designed to provide an extra layer of defence, reducing damage from natural elements. Homeowners who invest in preventative care enjoy several key benefits:

Prevent major repair costs – Reinforce surfaces before they deteriorate, saving money in the long run.

Increase property value – Well-maintained roofs, decks, and driveways enhance curb appeal and market value.

Lower insurance risks – Reduce the likelihood of claims due to water damage, cracks, or structural failure.

Extend the life of surfaces – With GoNano protection, roofs last longer, decks stay sturdy, and driveways remain cleaner and stronger.

Long-Term ROI: A Smart Investment in Your Home

Let’s put these numbers into perspective. If a homeowner applies GoNano treatment to their roof, concrete patio and wood deck instead of replacing them prematurely, the total investment over 15 years would be approximately:

  • Roof Treatment: $3,300 per application for 2000 sq. ft.

  • Concrete Patio Treatment: $2,740 per application for 1500 sq. ft.

  • Wood Deck Treatment: $1,650 per application for 1000 sq. ft.

  • Total Cost: $7,690

  • Replacement Costs Avoided: $43,000+

  • Net Savings: $35,310+

This approach keeps a home’s exterior in top condition while preventing the financial strain of sudden major repairs.

The Best Investment in Your Home is Proactive Care

Waiting until visible damage appears is a costly mistake. GoNano treatments provide peace of mind, allowing homeowners to enjoy a well-maintained home without the looming fear of expensive replacements.

By choosing protection over procrastination, you’re making a wise financial decision that keeps your home looking great, functioning properly, and saving you thousands over time.
