To stop roof leaks, there are many options, from the most expensive (tear-off and replacement of the existing roof) to the least expensive (a quick patch). However, there is one option that can provide a watertight and aesthetically pleasing roof while significantly increasing service life: Restoration Coating System.
In addition to nice aesthetics and waterproofing, elastomeric coatings can add a reflective surface, which works to reduce heating and cooling equipment loads on temperature-controlled buildings. The Lapolla Restoration Coating System is particularly economical compared to removing and replacing a roof.

The Restoration Coating System Approach:
Step 1: Inspect and evaluate existing roof condition
Step 2: Assess potential for restoration
Step 3: Draft custom restoration specification
Step 4: Clean and prime roof
Step 5: Install reinforced fabric or butyl tape to all seams and fasteners
Step 6: Re-seal roof penetrations with tape
Step 7: Apply the restoration coating base coat
Step 8: Apply the restoration coating top coat
