Flat Roof Restoration

Modified Bitumen Flat Roof

Climate Conditions in Bernal Heights

Roofing systems in Bernal Heights experience several environmental conditions that affect long-term durability:

  • Coastal fog and marine moisture
  • Wind-driven rain during winter storms
  • Temperature fluctuations between cool evenings and sunny afternoons
  • UV exposure during dry months
  • Water pooling on low-slope roofing surfaces

     

These factors can gradually weaken seams and membranes on flat roofing systems.

Roofing Done Right

Roof Condition Before Restoration

During the inspection, several issues were documented:

  • Ponding water after rainfall
  • Surface cracking along membrane seams
  • Minor blistering on sections of the roof surface
  • Sealant deterioration around roof penetrations
  • Early signs of UV aging

Although the roof structure remained solid, these conditions required waterproof restoration to prevent future leaks.

Flat Roof Restoration Process

The roofing restoration was completed in several stages to create a continuous waterproof surface.

Roof Cleaning & Preparation

The roof surface was pressure-cleaned to remove debris, dust, and loose materials.

Membrane Repairs

Damaged areas of the modified bitumen roof membrane were repaired and reinforced.

Seam Sealing

Roof seams and penetrations were sealed with waterproof roofing compound.

Silicone Roof Coating Application

A high-performance silicone coating was applied across the entire roof surface to form a seamless waterproof layer.

Drainage Inspection

Roof drains were cleared to improve water flow and reduce standing water.

Final Inspection

The completed coating system was inspected to confirm full coverage and proper sealing.

When Flat Roof Coating Is Recommended

Roof coating systems are often used when:

  • The roof membrane is still structurally stable
  • Small cracks or seam issues are present
  • Property owners want to extend roof life
  • Full replacement is not immediately necessary

Applying a silicone coating can add many additional years of performance to an existing flat roof.
