You don't have to go through the
expense and disruption of replacing your membrane roof!
The Membrane Roof Restoration System
protects your investment and your profitability by
preventing leaks,
cooling
the roof surface,
saving energy
costs,
extending the life of your roof.
Membrane Roof Restoration Steps
Before
Membrane roofs have become a common alternative to hot
asphalt type roof systems.
However, they have one major weakness: seams...many,
many feet of seams. Leaks often develop along the
field sealed seams around the roof penetrations due to deterioration of
the adhesive, poor installation and movement from thermal shock and
wind.
Leaks can damage more than just the contents of buildings. They can
weaken walls and ceilings, ruin insulation, causing your heating and cooling
costs to soar.
Cleaner
and
Pressure Wash
The
success of a coating system is only as good as the surface preparation.
We use a special cleaner called WAC II that is
applied prior to pressure-washing to help clean the roof of dirt and the
carbon black that is released over time.
Primer
We use a specially formulated primer called
Tack Coat to seal the membrane and provide good adhesion
for the coatings. Many other membrane coating systems fail because
they cannot get a good adhesion to the membrane.
Seal all
Field Seams
Seal all field installed seams using reinforcing Spunflex II
fabric and coatings. What good is an elastomeric coating if the reinforcement cannot move with the coating.
Conklin's reinforcement is a spun-woven polyester, not bonded. It has the most elongation
in the industry and as important it has memory. After being stretched, it
returns to its original shape.
Seal all
Penetrations
Seal all roof penetrations using reinforcing
Spunflex II fabric and coatings.
After
White Top Coat
The 85% reflective white top coating provides a cool energy
saving roof. Saves energy and helps reduce shrinkage of the membrane.

Even if your roof is not yet leaking, you can still benefit from
this Cool Energy-Saving Roof System. You have the choice of
sealing the seams with the Spunflex fabric for the leak-tight
warranty. Either way the reflective coating will help to
protect your seams from getting hot and failing. The cool
surface will also help to reduce shrinkage of the membrane.
