Sprayed-in-Place Polyurethane Foam is sprayed in-place on the roof, this fills in any cracks. The foam then expands and dries within seconds after it is applied. It forms an air tight seal to keep the rain and snow from leaking through the roof. After the Sprayed Polyurethane Foam is applied a dry gravel or elastomeric coating is applied as a protective layer.
Spraying foam takes a good amount of experience and training. You can rest assured that all of our employees are very well trained to do this. It also requires good weather, Sprayed Polyurethane Foam cannot be applied to a wet or damp surface. With proper preparation of your current roof and a professional application, Sprayed Polyurethane Foam can last up to 35 years.
SPF can be used to add slope and fill in depressed areas on the roof surface eliminating complicated tapered rigid board insulation in multiple layers with varying lengths of fasteners. SPF is a good specification and installation choice where:
-
Additional insulation is desired.
-
The roof substrate has many penetrations.
-
The roof deck is an unusual shape or configuration.
-
Lightweight materials are required.
-
Slope must be added to provide positive drainage.
Is SPF Roofing System Sustainable?
Oak Ridge National Laboratories described sustainable or green roofing systems as "roofing systems that have a long life, low maintenance, save energy, add durability to buildings, control moisture in buildings, and contribute very little to the waste stream. SPF roofing system complies with every criteria of this definition. SPF roofing system greatly reduce tear-offs in many re-roofing projects, which also decreases the amount of materials entering the waste stream. In addition, the SPF systems used today do not contain any ozone -depleting chemicals, and the energy saving characteristics can save considerable amounts of fossil fuel and co2 production, which affects global warming. SPF roofing system arrive on the job site in 55- gallon drums, the foam plastic expands 30 times its original volume on site. This saves greatly on fuel used for transportation.
The need for multiple roofs makes roofing one of the largest contributors of solid waste. According to the NRCA more than 68.5 percent of the $ 11.3 billion low-slope roofing market includes tear-off and replacement of existing roof membrane.
