QUIT WASTING TIME MAKING EXCESSIVE REPAIRS, INSTALL A SILICONE ROOF COATING
A very common reason given by building owners for installing a silicone coating on their roofing system is the simplicity of the system – or the fact that they know they won’t be making very many repairs on their roof once the coating is installed. When an owner or manager of a facility hear that they can make nearly every repair to a roofing system with nothing more than a razor blade and a tube of caulk, they usually get pretty excited about the time and money saved.
Eliminate Your Tool Bag
When you install a silicone roof coating on your building, the number of items you need to make repairs on the roof decreases significantly. You don’t have any fasteners that need to be replaced, tightened, or changed. You don’t have any seams that need to be repaired, replaced or re-adhered to the roof.
Two-Tool Job
Once you install the coating, the only repairs that you will need to make involve repairing tears, holes or bubbles in the surface of the coating. To do this, you can use the razor blade to remove the coating around the trouble spot, and then simply apply some silicone caulk into the hole you just made. It will adhere to the roof surface as well as the existing coating, and create a seamless membrane once again.
Coating Life Eliminates Repairs
Silicone coatings also help to eliminate repairs because they are designed to last 10, 15, or 20 years without requiring repair. They are designed to last that entire life almost maintenance free. Other roofing systems advertise an expected life, but that length assumes that repairs are made throughout the systems’ lives. Coatings are designed to be low maintenance for their entire existence.
Conclusion
If you are a building owner or the manager of a facility that needs a new roof, you probably don’t want to spend much time on the roof making repairs. You probably also don’t want to pay someone else to get on the roof and make repairs. If either of those is true, check out our silicone coatings.
