Evans Liquid RoofWhat Is A Liquid Applied Roofing System?

Liquid roofing involves the application of a monolithic, fully bonded, liquid based coating to a roof. The coating cures to form a rubber-like elastomeric waterproof membrane, capable of stretching and returning to its original shape without damage. Such coating systems are usually reinforced with secondary materials such as glass-reinforced plastic to provide additional tensile strength. The coatings can be applied over most traditional roofing materials including, felt, asphalt, bitumen and concrete.

Cost effectiveness
The process of liquid roofing provides a cost effective method of making a new or existing roof waterproof. It can deliver up to 25 years performance depending on the coating system employed. It is estimated that liquid roofing is 70% less expensive than overall roof replacement in refurbishment situations.

Be alert to early signs of a roof leak

Evans Roof Leak SignsIf you check the condition of your roof at least once a year, you should be able to plan in advance for necessary repairs. Early signs of trouble include dark areas on ceilings, peeling paint on the underside of roof overhangs, damp spots alongside fireplaces, and water stains on pipes venting the water heater or furnace.

From the outside, you can assess your roof’s health by viewing it through binoculars. Warning signs include cracked caulk or rust spots on flashing; shingles that are buckling, curling, or blistering; and worn areas around chimneys, pipes, and skylights. If you find piles of grit from asphalt roof tiles in the gutters, that’s a bad sign, since the granules shield the roof from the sun’s damaging ultraviolet rays. Black algae stains are just cosmetic, but masses of moss and lichen could signal roofing that’s decayed underneath.

If you’re inspecting on your own and find worrisome signs, especially if the roof is old or there has been a storm with heavy wind or hail, get a professional assessment. Evans Roofing does this free. Give us a call today.

Old Bill Says:

 

Old Bill says Roof Blisters: Blisters are raised portions of a roof. They are usually long and thin and are caused by a gas trapped in the roofing system. The warmth of the sun causes the gas to expand and create a bubble, pushing the plies apart. This bubble is the blister. Moisture can creep into these blisters, causing the damage outlined above in the roof leaks/moisture section.Old Bill has spoken
