issues which can arise. One of the best ways to fix an EPDM roof is by choosing
a best roof coating for it. The coating will act as a protective layer over the
roof membrane protecting it from damage.

essential. It has also proven that roofing can be handled virtually. Even post
Covid-19 the roofing contractors should go by old school techniques as well as
use of modern technologies to offer expertise and assistance virtually.”

limit the damage caused by UV-rays.
Polyurethane Roof Coatings
Polyurethane roof coatings are
suitable for those commercial buildings which are prone to the damage caused by
strong winds. The polyurethane is used to create a more durable surface,
provide support to the roof so that it is able to withstand higher winds. This
type of roof coating is used around roof flashings to protect the roof from
damages causing leaks.
Silicone Roof Coating
Adding a silicone based roof coating over the roof the owner
can protect the commercial building form damages caused by extreme
temperatures. This type of coating is applied in layers, the more layers of
this coating over the commercial roof means the more durable the roof is. The
owner should consult with roofing professional to figure out how much coats are
necessary to adequately cover the entire building. The roofer will weigh in
different factors before making any final decision.
Time and energy that goes on choosing the right EPDM rubber
roof coating will eventually pay off and will safeguard from issues caused by
lack of protection on the rubber membrane of their roofing.
