How to waterproof a flat roof?

Flat roof waterproofing is essential to prevent leaks and damage. Here are four options for the job:

A sturdy roof with a brick wall and chimney, highlighting the protective qualities of Mastic Asphalt in construction.

1. Mastic Asphalt: Coat your roof with a mastic asphalt tar using specialist tools, suitable for any flat roof and lasting 20 to 40 years, often referred to as the 'King of Waterproofing'.

1. RBM Technique: 

Apply layers of bitumen to the roof for toughness. Choose between hot or cold application, torch or strips. Ideal for home roofs, with a lifespan of 10 to 20 years.

2. Liquid Style: 

Coat your roof with a rubber or resin layer using a brush, roller, or spray. It acts like a flexible skin, suitable for any flat roof and lasting 20 to 30 years. Choose between fiberglass or fleece.

3. Single Ply Moves: 

Utilise sheets of synthetic materials (PVC, TPO, EPDM) for your roof. Cut to fit, attach with fasteners, ballast, or glue. Ideal for large roofs, providing resilience against weather conditions. Lifespan ranges from 20 to 40 years.

 

Prepare your roof by cleaning thoroughly - no mess, cracks, or algae. Consult the manual for safety and apply a waterproofing sealer followed by a paint coat for extra protection.

 

Considering a DIY approach? It depends on your roof size, skills, and time. Professional assistance may be necessary. However, waterproofing pays off with an extended roof life, cost savings on repairs, and a secure building. It's worth the investment.

What is the most durable roof coating?

Choosing the toughest roof coating isn't straightforward. Different coatings have pros and cons based on the roof, climate, and how you use them. Some things that can affect durability are:

 

- Thickness matters. A thicker coating can handle weathering better, but it might cost more.

- Reflectivity counts. A reflective coating can cool your roof, but in cold places, it might trap snow.

- Elasticity helps. A coating that stretches with the roof prevents cracks but might attract dirt.

 

Here are some common coatings and what they're good or not so good for:

Mastic Asphalt: Referred to as the 'King of Waterproofing' due to its versatile properties.

Elastomeric acrylic: Durable and versatile but needs multiple coats and may not stick to some roofs.

Silicone: Great for ponds, UV resistant, but can be damaged easily and might be pricier.

Fluoropolymer: Reflective, tough, and lasts long, but it could be costly and not work on some roofs.

Urethane or polyurethane: Good balance but less UV resistant, emits odours, and might degrade faster.
