One of the most exciting innovations in commercial roofing to day is the advance of roof coatings as a lower cost alternative to traditional replacements.
A white acrylic coating is a great way to protect your rubber roof from leaks, extend it's lifespan by a decade or longer, plus create a cooler, more energy efficient building.
Rubber membrane is thoroughly cleaned, pressure washed and coated with a specially formulated epdm primer.
All seams are reinforced with acrylic base coat with fabric embedded.
Entire roof is coated with a durable, energy-efficient white elastomeric coating.
