Frequently Asked Questions
Can you restore a single-ply (TPO, EPDM, PVC) roof without tear-off?
Yes. 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?
A Conklin single-ply restoration carries a 10 to 18 year renewable warranty and is designed to be re-coated rather than replaced.
Will a coating system stop ponding water?
Conklin coatings are tested and warrantied for ponding water conditions when applied at full thickness over a properly prepped membrane.
Is roof coating cheaper than replacing the membrane?
Yes. Coating typically costs 50-60% less than tear-off and replacement, and the IRS allows it to be expensed as a maintenance cost in the year of installation in most cases.
