Polyester fabric roofs require the same care as any other flat/pitched roof does. You need to do routine maintenance and re-coating every "so many years" (how long depends on the products that you use). You want to stick with elastomeric sealants for fabric roofs rather than using roof cements. It is very important to stick with a routine maintenance schedule with a fabric roof because unlike other roof types the roof coating really is what keeps the roof sealed. Roof coating on other roof types is just a protector it is not a sealer, with a fabric roof the roof coating is the sealer, as it seals the fabric. When you let a fabric roof go and do not maintain it the fabric roofing will become loose and begin to lift away from the roof surface, the fabric roofing will also rapidly deteriorate in the extreme Arizona environment. Roof coating is only made to be a sealer when used in conjunction with polyester fabric, in doing this a strong monolithic membrane is formed. Doing routine maintenance and re-coating will keep the fabric sealed and the membrane strong. AZ Roof Restoration LLC |
