A Foam Roof System Provides A Quality And Economical Solution
A new or a renewed flat roof can benefit from a sprayed on poly foam roofing in Oklahoma City system. The system, commonly known as SPF provides an extremely durable and waterproof coating on the roof. It provides a perfect flash during application and a tight and homogeneous bond to either a new or an existing sub-surface. The application of the polyurethane foam is something that must be done by professionals, who not only know the technique, but have the proper equipment.
To apply poly foam roofing in Oklahoma City, the skilled installation and application crew will first prepare the roof for the application. The surface must be squeaky clean for the foam to properly adhere and provide a lifetime of service. Once the surface is prepared, which may very well mean the removal of an existing roof covering, the application of foam can commence.
The application is an interesting process. Two rather benign solutions, both in liquid form are delivered to the site in separate 55 gallon drums. The materials are isocyanate and polyol resin, when mixed they become poly foam roofing in Oklahoma City. The two materials are drawn through a heating process and then, still separated in twin hoses finally meet at the spray nozzle. The result is quite dramatic. The materials expand up to 30 times their original volume and when applied creep into every corner, setting up quickly into a hard, durable surface.
Once the SPF is applied, and fully cured into an impervious barrier, then a layer of protective elastomeric coating or aggregate is applied. This adds to the structural integrity but most importantly shields the roof from harmful UV rays. This surface is usually white or a similar color which reflects the sun’s rays, reducing the interior temperature even further.
Once applied, the poly foam roofing in Oklahoma City is tough. It can withstand pedestrian traffic as men and material are on the roof doing routine maintenance on air-conditioning units etc. As Oklahoma is right in the heart of the tornado belt it is highly recommended that the roof is inspected at least twice a year for any damage that may have occurred from flying debris or hail stones. Any cracks less than about 4” can easily be repaired, once again by the pros.
The application of a poly foam roof will save time and money, not only on day one, but as time goes by. The old roof structure, whether it is wood, steel deck or concrete stays intact, this in itself saves removal and replacement fees which can run into serious money. As a result the time from the go-ahead to the finished application is compressed, saving a lot of confusion and disruption around your building.
