Recovery/Reroof
ROOF RECOVERY is a term used for applying a new system over the existing system which is approaching the end of its useful life. This would normally become apparent in the form of isolated leaks, making the roof system at that time, unsatisfactory to the occupant. In most of these cases, the roofs are physically in good condition and, with some minor rehabilitaton, provide a good substrate for the application of a Sealoflex System. The application of a Sealoflex System over such a roof will create a fully bonded, monolithic, formed-in-place single-ply membrane which will carry industry-accepted warranties. The surface can be bright white, offering "cool roof" benefits. Another benefit of the Sealoflex Roof Recovery System is that the warranties can be renewed and extended by a program of regular maintenance and coating.
For products and instructions for Roof Recovery Systems: Select the existing roof surface below then select the Sealoflex® System to be applied, Rubber Based (Sealoflex CT System) or Water Based (Sealoflex Acrylic System).

- BURA Built-up Roof (BUR) is an outer covering of a comparatively flat roof, consisting of several layers of saturated felt. As laid, each layer is mopped with hot tar or asphalt. The top layer is finished with a mineral or rock covering. When these systems fail, the primary indication is isolated leaks. Usually at this point, the roof surface is in sound condition and one of several Sealoflex® Systems can be used to recover the roof with a high quality, flexible, waterproofing membrane. This also offers the owner the opportunity to have a "cool roof" by choosing white as the roof color. Once the Sealoflex® System has been successfully applied and a scheduled maintenance program is followed, the roof can have indefinite life.
