Top 10 Reasons to Restore Rather than Replace

When it comes to a deteriorating low-slope or metal roof, doing nothing is not an option. Ignoring the problems – from small leaks to open seams, loose fasteners and rusting metal panels – will not make them go away. They will get worse, ultimately putting the building – and everyone and everything inside it – at risk. Something must be done.

But that “something” is not necessarily replacing the roof. Restoring the roof, either 

by coating it using a fluid-applied system or by recovering it with a new single-ply membrane, may be the far better option.

Of course, the existing roof must still be sound, and leaks and other issues must 

be addressed before restoration begins. But once those boxes have been checked, restoration can deliver big benefits.
