Roof Restoration Process


Roof Cleaning
Pressure wash the entire roof surface to remove all dirt, dust, previous paints and roof coatings that are delaminating and achieve a clean and sound substrate. Some roofs may require special detergents. Call us for recommendations.


Roof Priming
Prime the roof to ensure good adhesion of all coatings. We have primers suitable for almost all roof types. Even totally rusted roofs.


Roof Sealing
All seams, penetrations, non-structural gaps and parapet walls should be flashed. All fasteners should be sealed or capped with elastomeric caulk.


Roof Coating
Inspect the roof for defects or flaws. Apply the elastomeric roof coatings to the entire roof surface to produce a seamless, watertight membrane.


Benefits
  • Save up to 50% compared to re-roofing with little or no disruption.
  • Reflects up to 90% of the heat. Saves money on cooling.
  • Solves roof leaks economically and effectively.
  • Includes a 10 year manufacturer's warranty when professionally installed.
Recommended Equipment
Elastomeric coatings are best applied by high pressure airless sprayers. We recommend a model that has a pressure rating of 3000 psi and a flow rate of 3 gallons per minute.
