Spray polyurethane foam (SPF) roofing has been around the valley for quite some time and is a very common roofing system on residential and commercial flat roofs. When installed and maintained properly, foam roofs can last a very long time, 50+ years and are excellent roofing systems. An additional benefit is the roofing system provides insulation with an R Value of 6.5-7 per 1″.
The nominal minimum thickness of a foam roof is to be applied at 1 inch thick. It’s possible to add an additional 1 inch for a total of 2 inches but the majority of roofs are 1 inch thick and it’s not necessary to install 2 inches in most cases.
Maintenance requirements are a common oversight on foam roofs. Many homeowners don’t know about the maintenance and are never told until they find a leak and its too late. Especially the snow birds that buy their winter homes here, they come from far away lands where foam roofs don’t exist. When a foam roof is not inspected regularly and goes without regular maintenance, the sun will wear through the coating and eventually burn the foam to a point in which it’s no longer recoatable and needs to be replaced. The rule of thumb is to do the maintenance recoating every 5 yrs. Additionally, birds and bees can cause problems on your foam roof so having your roof inspected on a regular basis is a good idea.
Homeowners across Cave Creek also like that they can have their roofs re-coated whenever needed. Properly installed foam membranes can last between 10 and 20 years. Once they wear out, roofers can add a fresh layer to the existing matrix. Periodically renewing foam roofs is a great way to keep them safe and sturdy for a virtually unlimited time. That alone makes them an affordable option for budget-conscious residents.
Spray foam solutions are extremely economical for many other reasons, such as:
Holds up well to UV and heat
Seamless and watertight
Short installation time
Contracts and expands with the temperature
Conforms to irregular roofing surfaces
Those with unusually shaped homes should find that last benefit particularly attractive. It’s challenging to lay on a complex roof, but spray foam goes on no matter how complicated the underlying matrix is. Homeowners who had problems servicing their roofs can turn to our roofers to get things done.
