Spray foam roofing, also called Spray Polyurethane Foam Roofing, is a liquid spray which expands into a foam and can be applied to cover a roof. Before spray foam is applied to a roof, the existing roof must first be repaired if there are any defects. Then the spray foam coating is applied, creating a seamless waterproof seal.
SPF roofing is created from a combination of two chemicals: isocyanate and polyol resin. The chemicals are pumped from separate containers and combined within a mixing spray machine for application.
Spray foam roofing is seamless and therefore creates a waterproof seal, which protects the building from leaks.
Rubber roofing is installed with many seams that become loose over time in high winds. Once loose, rubber roofs begin to leak in water.
A major benefit of spray foam roofing is the ability to re-coat the foam after 10-20 years. Over time with wear and tear, spray foam roofs can lose their thickness and need to be re-sprayed. After 10 years, the thickness may be reduced to about 7-10 mils. Fortunately, coating manufacturers usually offer an extended warranty on every re-coat, making spray foam roofing a renewable product.
Spray Polyurethane Foam roofs have an R-Value of 6.6 per inch. SPF roofing is the highest R-Value available on the market.
Spray foam roofing is self flashing and can be applied in minutes, compared to rubber roofing which requires a custom fitting and can take about a half hour to apply. Spray foam can flash around: parapet walls, HVAC units, vents, pipes, skylights, and drains.
Spray foam roofing is quickly installed due to the fact that the spray can easy adhere to curves, domes, or protruding objects on the roof. Spray foam can go around troubled areas in a few minutes, while rubber roofing could take up to 30 minutes.
If damage were to occur on the spray foam roof, due to a shark object being dropped on the roof or perhaps a severe storm which may have caused damages, this can easy be fixed with caulking. Just cut out the damaged area, apply caulking, and smooth it out.
A spray foam roof is the last roof you would need to install because it holds up for 10-20 years and only requires a simple re-coat to maintain it’s quality. Save money and time with spray foam roofing and enjoy the peace of mind that the building is leak free and protected.
