Roof Coatings & Waterproofing

Weather ability, reflectivity, ultraviolet light protection, energy savings and/or aesthetics - all important factors to consider when choosing a coating to enhance the performance or weather tight integrity of an installed roof system.

Selection and application of the appropriate roof coating product requires knowledge of available products offered in the area, their advantages and disadvantages, potential energy savings and, most importantly, their compatibility with the roofing system to be coated. Nothing is more discouraging than watching a coating, and the associated energy savings, flake off after a few short months because the coating was not compatible with the roof.

The most common roof coating product categories are:

• asphalt cutbacks and emulsions
• polymer-modified acrylic elastomers and polyureas
• silicones
• high-performance urethanes
• SPF

More can be found on each of these products in the Facilities net Article - Making Roof Coatings Work.
