All roofs are exposed to severe and relentless forces: the sun’s heat and UV rays, thermal shock, building movement and ponded water all contribute to roof deterioration.

When Should a Maintenance System Be Applied?
It is important to apply a maintenance system before the roofing membrane loses its flexibility, usually within 5 to 10 years depending on prevailing temperatures, sun exposure and roof drainage. A mineral-surfaced cap sheet roof should have a reflective coating applied immediately upon installation, or soon thereafter.
With planned maintenance and periodic renewal of the reflective coating on the maintenance systems, roof life can be extended indefinitely. This can more than DOUBLE the life of the roof.
