Comprehensive Roof Inspection and Assessment

A detailed walk-through documents membrane type, flashing condition, penetrations, surface ponding areas, and signs of moisture intrusion using moisture meters and infrared scanning where needed, with seam conditions, fastener integrity, and insulation saturation levels logged to determine whether localized repair or full-system restoration is appropriate. Damage is photographed, a prioritized repair list created, and a written scope with cost and expected service life provided.

Surface Preparation and Cleaning

Loose debris, biological growth, and deteriorated coatings are removed using low-pressure washing, soft-bristle scrapers, or mechanical brushing tailored to the roof material to ensure proper adhesion for primers and topcoats. Incompatible coatings and contaminated areas are stripped down to a sound substrate, with hot asphalt or mechanical methods used on built-up and modified bitumen systems to avoid substrate damage. All drains and scuppers are cleared and protected, with rooftop equipment and penetrations masked to prevent contamination and keep building systems online during work.

Repair of Damaged Areas

Cracks, splits, blisters, and open seams are repaired with material-specific patches and compatible adhesives, with compromised membrane sections removed and replaced or vulcanized patches applied where recommended by the membrane manufacturer. Loose fasteners and parapet flashings are re-secured or replaced, curb and penetration flashings reinstalled, and wet or delaminated insulation panels removed and replaced to prevent trapped moisture and heat loss. Every repair is documented with before-and-after photos.

Application of Advanced Roof Coatings

Manufacturer-approved primers are applied to promote adhesion before silicone, acrylic, or polyurethane coating systems selected for substrate compatibility, UV resistance, and local climate performance, are installed using plural-component or brush, roller, or spray methods per product guidelines. Mil thickness is measured and application conditions, including temperature and humidity documented to meet warranty specifications, with reflective topcoats selected where energy savings are a priority and multiple coats applied as required for flood-coat reinforcement.

Seam and Detail Reinforcement

Seams, terminations, and penetrations are reinforced using proprietary tapes, mesh, or fabric embedded in elastomeric coatings to prevent common failure points from reopening under thermal cycling or wind uplift. Drain sumps, rooftop unit curbs, skylight perimeters, and parapet transitions receive custom-fitted flashings and overlap details, with seam plates or plate-over repairs added where fastener pull-through has occurred on mechanically attached systems. Critical details are verified with water flood tests or hose checks before final coating stages.

Final Quality Check and Maintenance Guidance

A full walk-through and adherence check against the original scope measures coating thickness and verifies adhesive bond where applicable, with completed work documented through a punch list, photographs, and material certificates to support warranties. A prioritized maintenance plan covering seasonal inspections, debris removal, drain clearing, and warranty-compliance inspection intervals is provided at project close, with service agreements available to address small issues early and protect long-term investment.
