NEXT-GENERATION WATERPROOFING.
PROTECTING YOUR FUTURE. SUSTAINABLY.
Liquid-applied roofing systems are made from durable polymers like polyurethane.
Also known as liquid polymer flat roofing, the waterproofing membrane centres around polyurethane, a durable and flexible polymer. An alternative to GRP and rubber roofing, they offer exceptional durability, flexibility and waterproofing. They are cold-applied flat roofing systems, meaning that no heat is used during preparation.
They are also effective roof sealants, making them perfect for overlays and repairs.
The liquid applied flat roofing materials typically use:
- Primer
- Polyurethane
- Textile backing
- Final polyurethane topcoat layer
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Liquid-Applied Flat Roofing Systems
Q. How much does a liquid-applied polyurethane flat roof cost?
A. The average cost for a new flat roof with a polyurethane flat roof coating is slightly greater than for fibreglass. Customers should also account for surface area, insulation costs, underlying woodwork, as well as the removal of any existing roofing system and workmanship costs.
Who installs polyurethane flat roofs?
A. Many of the polyurethane flat roofing systems that we offer require specialist training. It is also possible to apply polyurethane coatings as part of DIY work, but bear in mind that correct installation procedures must be followed.
How long does a liquid-applied flat roofing system last?
A. Like fibreglass, polyurethane flat roofing systems should last beyond 30 years.
Q. Are polyurethane flat roofs guaranteed?
A. Yes, the certified systems offered by Strandek® come with a 15 – 25-year guarantee
Q. What is not covered in my flat roof warranty?
A. External damage caused by heavy impact (equipment placement) or incorrect design from the builder. The flat roofing insurance will only cover deficits in the system or incorrect installation by the roofer.
Q. Can a Non-slip coating be added to the finish?
A. Yes, ant0slip grit can be embedded in the final topcoat to improve grip.
