Frequently Asked Questions
Can you restore a single-ply (TPO, EPDM, PVC) roof without a tear-off?
Often, if the membrane and insulation are sound. Conklin's single-ply coating system cleans, primes, and recoats existing membrane in place. The roof is restored in days, not weeks, and the building keeps operating.
How long does a flat roof coating system last?
Service life depends on the roof's condition, the system used and how well it is maintained; ask the contractor to put the expected service life in writing.
Will a coating system stop ponding water?
Whether a coating is rated for ponding water depends on the product; check the manufacturer data sheet. Chronic ponding usually points to a drainage problem worth fixing first.
Is roof coating cheaper than replacing the membrane?
Whether restoration costs less than replacement depends on the roof's condition, which an on-site inspection confirms.
