Classic Roofing & Gutters

The application process for a commercial roof coating typically involves several key steps:

1. Surface Preparation:

   • Clean the roof surface thoroughly to remove dirt, debris, and any existing coatings. This may involve pressure washing or other cleaning methods to ensure a clean and smooth surface for coating adhesion.

2. Repairing Damage:

   • Inspect the roof for any signs of damage, such as cracks, leaks, or deteriorated areas. Repair any issues found before proceeding with the coating application to ensure a watertight seal and optimal performance.

3. Priming (if necessary):

   • Apply a primer to the roof surface if recommended by the coating manufacturer. Primer helps improve adhesion and can enhance the performance of the coating system.

4. Applying the Coating:

   • Use a suitable application method, such as spraying, rolling, or brushing, to apply the roof coating evenly across the entire surface. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions regarding application rates and coverage to achieve the desired thickness.

5. Allowing for Cure Time:

   • Allow the coating to cure according to the manufacturer’s specifications. This typically involves waiting for the coating to dry completely before subjecting it to foot traffic or other stresses.

6. Inspecting for Quality:

   • After the coating has cured, inspect the roof surface for uniformity and coverage. Touch up any areas that may have been missed or appear uneven to ensure a seamless finish.

7. Final Inspection and Maintenance:

   • Conduct a final inspection of the coated roof to ensure that it meets quality standards and provides the desired level of protection. Implement a regular maintenance schedule to prolong the life of the coating and maximize its performance over time.
