Foam Roofing Arizona

Investing in a new roof is one of the biggest decisions that you will make when it comes to improvement and maintenance of your building. Spray polyurethane foam roofing in Arizona is becoming a popular option today because of its durability and insulation properties. At Spray Foam Insulation Arizona, we specialize in spray foam roofing. We offer top quality foam roofing insulation services that is completely sustainable and is guaranteed to reduce your energy costs.
​
Spray foam roofing is a liquid material that expands and turns into foam once it is sprayed. Foam roofing in Arizona involves using spray foam to spray across an already existing roof in order to repair or re-invigorate it. However, the roof should first be clean and free from oil and dirt. Saturated portions of the roof are removed and replaced with similar materials and then spray polyurethane foam is used to spray across the entire roof.

Spray polyurethane foam for roofs are made at the job site itself by the mixing of two chemicals, polyol resin and isocyanate. After the spray foam is used, a topcoat is required to seal and protect the roof from elements that could damage it such as moisture, fire, hail, UV rays of the sun and expansion and contraction due to the weather.

Arizona Spray Foam Roofing Pros and Cons

Spray polyurethane foam roofs are much lighter than traditional roofs thus it puts less stress on the frame of the house. Also, compared to traditional roofs, spray foam roofs can be constructed so that proper water drainage takes place. This is done by building up thicker layers of spray foam in certain areas. If water collects on a spray polyurethane foam roof, there are chances that the roof will collapse.
If you are considering foam roofing in Arizona and have decided to spray foam for your roof, there are some spray foam roofing pros and cons that you should take into consideration. Some of the pros are:
Foam Roofing Cost Arizona
  • Easy to Install: Polyurethane foam roofing is quite simple to install when done by a spray foam roofing contractor or specialist. Since the job can be completed quickly and efficiently, this saves time as well as money. The process involves cleaning your roof properly and then applying spray polyurethane foam (SPF) directly on materials such as wood, concrete, asphalt and shingles. Since polyurethane foam expands up to 60% on spraying, it easily covers all areas and takes the shape of the place that it is sprayed over, thus there is no problem even if it is used over irregularly shaped roofs.  

  • Easy to Maintain: Once you have used spray polyurethane foam on your roof, it needs very little or hardly any maintenance. If it is installed properly, you need not replace or repair your roof for 25 to 30 years and under ideal circumstances it can even go up to 50 years. However, to be on the safe side, you should check your SPF roof at least twice a year. If you have a silicone roof coating, you need not replace the entire thing; you just need to use new coating over the existing one.

  • Improves Energy Efficiency: Foam roofing provides the highest R-value. R-value of any material refers to the insulation power or the ability to provide resistance to heat or cold. This means that spray polyurethane foam will keep out the heat during the summer and the cold during the winter months. Once you have installed SPF, you will realize a drastic amount in energy savings. Also, if you have a silicone roof coating, it will protect from UV light.  
  • Waterproof: Spray polyurethane foam roofing fills cracks, seams and gaps in the roof, thus making it absolutely seamless and waterproof. When roofs have even slight cracks or gaps in them, the roof leaks, thus leading you to do major repairs. However, with the application of spray foam, the chances of water remaining on your roof and seeping into the building are minimized and, in most cases, nullified. Thus, not only does polyurethane foam roofing eliminate the chances of leaking roofs but also acts as a waterproof barrier.
​
  • Sustainable and environment friendly: Foam roofing generates little or no waste as most times, the original roof does not need to be torn out and replaced. Rather, spray polyurethane foam is applied over the exiting roof and this lasts a good number of years. Other than this, even the materials that are used are environmentally friendly and have low Global Warming Potential (GWP), no Ozone Depleting Potential (ODP), are free from chlorofluorocarbons (CFCS) and have low emission of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs).

  • Limited Installation time: Spray polyurethane foam cannot be installed when there is frost, ice or dampness on the already existing roof. Thus, in other words, the installation of foam roofing is highly dependent on the weather. 
​
  • Certification and Experience: When hiring a spray foam roofing contractor, it is very important to check the certification and experience that they have. A spray foam roof insulation project that is not done well could lead to further problems and damage the lifespan of the underlying pre-existing roof. The foam roofing contractor that you hire needs to have adequate experience and knowledge and as spray polyurethane foam is very technical and needs to be done precisely.

  • Potential Risk of Overspray: Since spray polyurethane foam is sprayed there is risk of the spray foam being carried to other surfaces like cars and other property. Thus, during the installation of spray foam, care needs to be taken in order to prevent the foam from spreading to other surfaces.  
  • Maintenance: Spray polyurethane foam should be inspected at least twice a year especially if there are weather hazards such as hailstorms, hurricanes or tornadoes. Elastomeric sealant which is compatible with SPF can be used to repair the roof in case of small cracks.

About Roof Coatings

Spray polyurethane foam roofs need to be coated in order to seal and protect them. Roof coatings are fluid roofing membranes that are fully adhered to the roof. Typical roof coating thickness varies and can be as thin as 0.075mm and can go up to more than 1mm in thickness. The roof coating acts as a topmost layer on the roof and protects the roof from physical damages such as sunlight, UV light, hail, rain and other damages.

​Roof coatings are very durable, can be used on any type of roof and upon correct installation can solve the problem of a leaky roof. Roof coatings also extend the life of a roof by about 25 years. There are many different types of roof coatings that come with different end uses. One of these are elastomeric roof coatings. Elastomeric roof coatings are polymer based liquid compounds and are very popular because of their properties of expansion and contraction. This roof coating is capable of expanding and contracting back to its original shape and size without causing any damage.

​Elastomeric roof coatings are essentially a type of acrylic paint mixed with titanium dioxide and can stretch to about 300% more than regular acrylics. It is usually very compatible with roofs made out of different materials such as polyurethane foam, single-ply, wood, metal and concrete. Polyurethane foam roofs that have been coated with elastomeric coating derive certain benefits such as UV light protection as well as protection from ozone. This type of coating also protects the roof from aging and is non-toxic in nature. Typically, it can last about 10 to 20 years. Including the cost of labor, elastomeric roof coatings cost between $1.35 to $1.80 per square foot.

Types of Roof Coatings used in Arizona

Spray Polyurethane Foam Roofing Arizona
  • Butyl: This type is great for low sloping roofs; either single-ply or built up PVC. Butyl is very resistant to water and therefore also acts as a vapor barrier.
  • Acrylic: Acrylic elastomeric coating is generally used on sloped roofs. It lasts longer than butyl and is more environmentally friendly.
  • Polyurethane: Polyurethane roof coatings are best for rubber roofs. It can also be used on single-ply and modified bitumen.
  • Silicone: Silicone roof coating is the best for roofs made of polyurethane spray foam and is very good for foam roofing repair.
  • Bitumen: Bitumen is used as an asphalt- based sealant and used mainly around skylights, chimneys, asphalt roofs. It is only used as Modified Bitumen Roofing or a Built-Up Roof and not as a complete roofing membrane.
  • EPDM: EDMP is also known as rubberized roof coating and liquid EDMP is used along with a primer as a coating on any type of roof. It is relatively more expensive than other types of coating but only needs to be applied in a single coat. 

Reflective Roof Coatings​

​As the name suggests, reflective roof coatings are applied to roofs in order to reflect sunlight thereby reducing the amount of heat that is absorbed by the building. These are also known as cool roof coatings and is known to help in energy savings. These coatings have increased thermal emittance which means that the chemicals present in the coating are able to radiate the heat back into the surrounding atmosphere instead of towards your house. Reflective coatings can be found in any color but white is the best as it can reflect 50% to 90% of the sunlight that hits the roof. In Arizona, cool roof coatings are a must as it helps in keeping your house cool and at the same time reduces your energy bills!

Metal and Flat Roof Coatings

Roof coating companies often use different coatings for flat roofs and pitched roofs. Flat roof coatings cost between $0.50 to $2.00 for raw materials and an extra $0.50 to $3.00 per square foot for labor chargers. Sloped or pitched roofs are usually made with tile or with asphalt shingles when there is no complete coating but sometimes metal roof coatings that are elastomeric in nature are used in order to make it resistant to rust and corrosion. Metal roofs can be used for pitched, low slope as well as flat roofs. Any type of metal and aluminum roof coatings can be used on metal roofs. Aluminum roof coatings are an excellent way to protect rolled asphalt and flat roofs from overheating as well as deterioration.

Nowadays, commercial roof coatings and industrial roof coatings include both elastomeric as well as foam roof coatings. Some of the benefits of industrial roof coatings are:
  • Longevity – Commercial roof coatings and industrial roof coatings increase the lifespan of the roof by about 10 to 20 years by creating a watertight barrier over the roof and protecting it from harsh weather conditions.
  • Versatility- Both commercial and industrial roof coatings can be applied to various substrates such as rubber roofs, metal roofs, spray polyurethane roofs, flat roofs and many more.
  • Efficiency- By using a coating, there is a positive impact on energy efficiency as you will be paying a reduced amount on your bills. Apart from this it reduces the amount of environmental pollution that is otherwise generated.
