Spray Foam Roofs | 3 Reasons Theyre The Best Flat Roofing System Titan Applicators 2021-08-28 | CAN I USE SPRAY FOAM OVER MY EXISTING COMMERCIAL ROOF?A spray applied roofing system is a great option to restore an existing flat roof system. With that said, not all existing roofs are candidates for an SPF roof restoration. In order to install a high performance sprayed-in-place system that is adhered to the substrate, seamless, lightweight, and self-flashing, the application and workmanship must be premium quality. In addition, the SPF applicator must have detailed information on the type and condition of the existing roof. If any one of the restrictions are not met, then the new foam roof may not perform as expected.Prior to the application of any spray polyurethane foam, the roof surface must be inspected. The intended purpose: to insure that the surface is is clean and in condition to allow the SPF to properly adhere to the existing roofing material. The following must be met to determine suitable SPF roof application over an existing roof:Commercial Roof Surface Inspection for SPF Application:There are two general principles that must be met while screening an existing commercial flat roof for compatibility of an SPF roof restoration:Core samples must be taken to identify potential moisture saturated areas underneath the existing roofing system. A roofing system that is saturated with water 25% or more will generally result in a complete tear-off and reroof. Accurate moisture readings can be attained through the use of MDP strips.Core samples must be taken to identify structural characteristics of the assembly below the existing roof. The deck should be examined for rot, corrosion, and other deterioration. Any weak areas must be repaired. In some instances, a complete tear-off may be necessary to achieve a code-compliant and safe product for the client and the occupants of the building.Once those two tasks have been met, the applicator may proceed.Membrane Roofs:All loose aggregate, dirt, debris, grease, and oil must be removed from the existing roof surface by power-broom, hydro-vacuum, or other appropriate means. Loose membrane seams and other openings must be mechanically secured but may be left air and water vapor permeable. Loose, damaged, and deteriorated flashings, details, and equipment must be repaired, secured, or removed.Membrane blisters must be split and then secured. Loosed-laid membranes must be removed and secured by being overlaid with mechanically fastened board.Wood Surfaces:Plywood should be exterior grade (Type "X") not less than 15/32" thick, attached securely in place. The attachment must meet building code requirements fore resistance to wind uplift. The wood cannot contain more than 18% water, as measured in accordance with ASTM D 444-84, or ASTM D 4442-84.Tongue and Groove, Sheathing, or Planking must be overlaid with a minimum 1/4" thick exterior grade plywood or suitable covering due to the possibility of variable openings and effects of aging and shrinking.Prior to the application of a primer, all loose dirt and debris must be removed by using compressed air, vacuum, or broom. (Not washed with water.)Wood decks should be primed with the foam manufacturer's approved primer to achieve optimal adhesion. The primer should be applied as soon as the wood deck is installed to resist any additional moisture pick-up between the time of installation and SPF application.Metal Roof Surfaces:Flat structural metal roof decks shall not be lighter than 22 gauge. A pitched metal building roof panel should not be lighter than 29 gauge, with a pitch of 1/4" in 12".All joints should be correctly lapped, sealed, and fastened. If the metal surface is free of loose scale, rust, weathered or chalking paint, the applicator can remove loose dirt using compressed air, power wash, vacuum, or broom. Grease, oil, and other contaminates must be removed with proper cleaning solutions.Fluted metal roof decks require a suitable method of covering or filling the flutes prior to SPF application to achieve a smoother more uniform surface. With the EnduraRock foam and gravel roof, a mesh fabric may be rolled-out across the roof deck, spanning the flutes, and pulled taut to the roof deck.Concrete Roof Surfaces:In all cases, concrete roof surfaces should be free of laitance and chemical release agents. The applicator must remove loose dirt, dust, and debris by using compressed air, vacuum, or broom. Oil, grease, form release agents or other contaminates should be removed by proper leaning solutions. It is recommended that all concrete surfaces by primed with a concrete primer recommended by the SPF manufacturer.Roof deck joints and openings exceeding 1/4" should be grouted or caulked and allowed to cure prior to SPF application. Also, concrete must be allowed to cure at least 28 days prior to the application.Contact us today: titanapplicators.com/contact

Can a PVC roof be coated? #roofing #propertymanagement #realestate #shorts Titan Applicators 2023-04-05 | ...
Look For These Things If You Want To Coat Your PVC Roof Titan Applicators 2023-04-04 | While PVC roofs are known for their durability and long service life, they can still experience wear and tear over time. Here are some physical signs of wear and age on a PVC roof membrane that may indicate it cannot be coated with a roof coating:Cracking: Over time, PVC roofs can develop cracks due to weathering, UV exposure, and other factors. If the cracks are deep or extensive, it may not be possible to coat the roof with a roof coating.Ponding water: If the roof is not sloped properly, water may accumulate and form puddles or ponds. This can lead to leaks and other damage, and it may not be possible to coat the roof until the underlying issue is addressed.Mold or mildew: If the roof is not properly maintained, mold or mildew may start to grow on the surface. If the growth is extensive or has penetrated the surface of the membrane, it may not be possible to coat the roof with a roof coating.Delamination: If the layers of the PVC membrane have started to separate or delaminate, it may not be possible to coat the roof with a roof coating. This can be caused by improper installation, extreme weather conditions, or other factors.Significant damage: If the roof has sustained significant damage, such as punctures or tears, it may not be possible to coat the roof with a roof coating. In these cases, it may be necessary to replace the damaged sections of the roof or the entire roof itself.--Thanks for watching!Blog: titanapplicators.com/blogFacebook: facebook.com/denversprayfoamLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/tonybockInstagram: instagram.com/sprayfoam_titan

5 Common Flat Roof Mistakes In The Winter Titan Applicators 2023-01-24 | 5 of the common roof mistakes building owners and property managers make during in the winter.1. They don’t inspect it in the fall! Yes, that’s right, the best wintertime maintenance plan is a comprehensive autumn inspection. 2. They think they’re “in the clear” just because their roof is relatively new. Well, just because you bathed your kids on Tuesday doesn’t mean you’re good until next Tuesday. The same concept applies to your roof! It may be new, clean, and shiny but it still requires your attention; especially if you want it to stay that way. 3. Removing snow and damaging the roof. - Just, don’t. And if you think you do, call a professional roofing contractor to check if it’s necessary.4. Not checking for ice dams during free/thaw periods. 5. Performing a thorough spring inspection.
