Foam Roof Repair

Roof Preparation: (Foam Roof Repair)

First, the surface of the roof is ready for installation of the roof foam. Foam roofing systems are not based on the old roof membranes for waterproofing. If necessary, the old roof membranes are torn. However, after careful preparation, the membranes of the existing roof usually serve as excellent substrates for a new roof foam. Reuse the old roof membrane as a substrate to help the environment by reducing landfill waste.
