Summary

A large warehouse’s roof comprising large metal panels required treatment against extreme thermal stress and occasional foot traffic for maintenance. A solution using spray-applied polyurea, detailed liquid membranes, and rigorous quality control was needed to deliver a seamless and durable system capable of enduring environmental exposure.

Technical Diagnosis

Challenges at joints, penetrations, owing to weather exposure causing recurrent leaks and membrane degradation. The solution required thorough surface preparation, flexible coating applications, and sealing of seams to restore reliable water-tight integrity.

Implemented Solution

Mechanical cleaning and scarification to remove contaminants, corrosion, and loose debris ensuring a stable substrate

Application of liquid-applied membrane with detailing, ensuring seamless coverage at all flashings, joints, and penetrations, reinforced with special fabric layers

Full-coverage spray-applied polyurea membrane providing a continuous, flexible barrier resistant to mechanical wear and weathering

Multiple layers of robust topcoats applied with thorough cure verification and leak testing to confirm system effectiveness

THE RESULTS

Roof surface fully sealed and ready for operation

Highly durable, seamless barrier established
