EPDM is a rubber membrane that stays flexible in deep cold, which is why it has a long record on northern roofs. Its black surface helps melt snow. Seams and flashings are where it ages first, so those are what we check and repair on Sioux Falls buildings.
Roof coatings are not a new phenomenon. In fact, they have been sold for more than a century – with various levels of success. We have used these products, when appropriate, and finds them to be a cost-effective solution for weatherproofing and thermal resistance. In years past, it was difficult to separate the good products from the bad, but, luckily, we have a standing relationship with several manufacturers of excellent cool roof coatings. Our relationship means we trust the product and are qualified in its use so that we can offer the product warranty after application. That’s just another benefit to working with a true professional – right alongside the satisfaction guarantee.
