Why Do Roofs Fail?

Failure Issues

• Ultraviolet Rays/ Solar Radiation

• Atmospheric Oxidation • Dimensional Stability • Ponding Water/ Drainage • Poor Installation • Inferior Details • Foot Traffic/ Damage • Heat Transfer • Wind Uplift

Why Do Roofs Fail Continued

Debris on Roof Vegetation

Wind Uplift Ponding Water Plane Crash

Why Do Roofs Fail Continued

Extend Roof Life Lower Life Cycle Costs Maintain Roof

Benefits of Preventive Roof Maintenance

#1 Reason Roofs Fail = Lack of Preventive Maintenance. Preventive Maintenance is required by manufacturers 10, 15 & 20 year material and labor warranties.

Energy Effectiveness through Roof Coatings

Can roof coatings prove as an effective solution for energy reduction?

According to a report by the schoolenergysaving.com

What Does Energy Effectiveness Through Roof Coatings Mean?

Roof coatings are one of the most effective, least costly options available to

save money and energy in existing institutional and commercial buildings.

Why Roof Coatings?

Extend Roof Life • Extend Roof Service Life by

protecting it from extended UV

exposure

• 5, 10, 15 year Warranty Available

Lower Energy Costs • Lower Energy Costs by reflect solar

radiation

• AVG 5-15% Energy Reduction

Some important roof conditions to consider when selecting a restoration coating include:

What Roofs Can be Coated?

Current Condition

of Roof System

Slope

Heat/ UV Exposure

NOTE:

If your roof is in poor condition or near the end of its useful life. It is best to re-cover

or full replacement.

Chemical Exposure Ponding Water

Age of Roof

Prerequisites to Qualify for a Roof Coating It’s all about the prep work!

1. Moisture: have an approved testing lab perform a moisture survey to determine what percent of the roof is wet. Cut out and replace all wet areas before coating.

2. Maintenance/ Repair: Stop the leaks before you coat. All leaks must be stopped and repaired before any coating is applied. And a full maintenance applied to the roof as well.

3. Roof Details: flashings scuppers, drains, penetrations and HVAC units need to be sealed, re-flashed, and replaced if damaged, and all ridging, blisters, splits and fishmouths must be repaired before coating to ensure maximum lifespan.

4. Low Spots: ponding water and constant evaporative process can harm the coating. Roofers can build up low areas with crickets or tapered insulation to divert water to drainage points before applying the coating.

5. Adhesion Test: Perform Slit/ Adhesion test to existing substrate.

NOTE: 25% Rule: Florida Building Code requires a full roof

replacement if more than 25% of the roof is found wet.

Acrylic Coatings Urethane Coatings Silicone Coatings PMMA Coatings

When and Where to Apply Roof Coatings.

Types of Roof Coatings

Reflectivity Ponding Water Tensile Strength

Acrylic Roof Coatings

Acrylic 1. Easy to Install

2. Water based

3. Applied in liquid form. Becomes thick membrane as it dries.

Benefits

• High flexibility for adhesion on different substrates

• Reflectivity reduces energy costs associated with heating and cooling

• Fully Adhered

• Seamless Installation

• Highly Elastomeric: allowing for fluctuations in temperature without affecting coating

Urethane Roof Coating

Urethanes 1. Base coat is highly elastomeric and provides a waterproofing layer

2. Top coat adds a reflective coating to protect the surface from harmful-

UV rays

Benefits

• Will not chalk or degrade in UV light

• Long-term protection from UV exposure

• Excellent for harsh industrial conditions or areas with rooftop chemical exposure

• Reflectivity reduces energy costs associated with heating and cooling

Typical Urethane Roof Coating

Silicone Roof Coatings

Silicone 1. Easy to Apply

2. Advantage: Can be installed in one coat

Benefits

• 95% Silicone Solids; 5% filler

• High flexibility for adhesion on different substrates

• Reflectivity reduces energy costs associated with heating and cooling

• Best for Ponding Water

• Seamless Installation

Typical Silicone Roof Coating

Resin/ PMMA Roof Coating

Resin Roof Coating/ Membrane (PMMA)

1. Fluid Applied Systems installed with a fiberglass or polyester mat

2. Additional layer of PMMA is squeezed or sprayed over the mat/fleece to

complete the systems.

3. Typically used as Plaza Decks where overburden is installed on top of

them.

Benefits

• Best solution for ponding water

• Used for penetrations in lieu of the standard details

• Can eliminating two- ply base flashings on mod-bit roofs by substituting

them for Resin/PMMA and matt

• Future of Roofing

Typical PMMA Roof System

What Roofs Can Be Coated?

Single Ply (TPO) Metal Roofs Modified Bitumen

Can roof coatings prove as an effective solution for energy reduction?

YES

Roof Coating Conclusion

Inexpensive to install vs. complete replacement

Install without disrupting operations? PMMA = AROMA.

Extend the life of your roof

Can lower Energy Costs up to 5- 15%. Increasing your Solar Reflectivity Index (SRI)

Not For Everybody • Old roof past service life

Select the right coating for your roof type
