FOAM Roofing

Devore Foam Roofing Services

Foam roofing, also known as Spray Polyurethane Foam (SPF) roofing, offers superior insulation, durability, and energy efficiency. At Devore Capital, we specialize in both residential and commercial foam roofing services, ensuring that every project is executed with precision and care. Our expertise in foam roofing allows us to provide solutions that enhance the longevity and performance of your property.

Benefits of Modified Bitumen Roofing

Modified bitumen is a commercial roofing system made of asphalt layers that are enhanced with polymers and fiberglass. This material offers a range of benefits, including ease of installation, cost efficiency, and low maintenance requirements. Moreover, it reflects harmful sun rays, helping to keep the building cool and reducing energy consumption.

Superior Insulation

Foam roofing provides exceptional thermal resistance (high R-value), reducing heat transfer and lowering energy costs for heating and cooling.

Seamless & Waterproof

The spray application creates a continuous, seamless barrier that eliminates leaks and prevents water infiltration — ideal for flat or low-slope roofs.

Lightweight Yet Durable

Despite being lightweight, SPF roofing adds strength and durability without overloading the structureSPF roofing adds strength and durability without overloading the structure.

Maintenance and Longevity of Foam Roofs

Longevity: With proper maintenance, foam roofs can last over 30 years in your roof. Regular inspections and timely recoating are key to maximizing the lifespan of your foam roof. If maintenance is skipped you will jeopardize the longevity of your roof resulting in premature expenses

 Regular Inspections: Schedule regular inspections to check for signs of wear and tear. Professional inspections can identify issues early, preventing costly repairs later on.

Cleaning: Keep the roof clean from debris, dirt, and organic material that can cause damage or harbor mold. Use a gentle wash with a hose and mild detergent if necessary.

Recoating: Apply an elastomeric coating every 5-10 years to protect the foam from UV radiation and weathering. This recoating process helps extend the life of your foam roof significantly. For more information on elastomeric coatings, visit our Elastomeric Coatings Page.

Repairing Damage: Promptly address any cracks, blisters, or punctures. Small repairs can prevent larger issues and maintain the roof’s integrity.

Foam Roofing Installation Process

Inspection and Preparation: The first step is a thorough inspection of the existing roof to identify any issues that need to be addressed. The roof surface is then cleaned and prepared to ensure optimal adhesion of the foam. This may include removing any existing roofing material, repairing any damage, and ensuring the surface is free of debris and contaminants.

Application of Primer (if needed): Depending on the condition and type of the existing roof, a primer may be applied to enhance adhesion. This step ensures that the foam bonds effectively to the substrate.

Spraying the Foam: The foam is sprayed onto the roof surface in a liquid form, where it expands and hardens into a solid, seamless layer. This layer provides both insulation and waterproofing. The application is done in layers to achieve the desired thickness and ensure complete coverage.

Curing: The foam needs time to cure and set. During this phase, the foam expands to fill any gaps, creating a continuous, airtight seal over the roof.

Application of Protective Coating: Once the foam has cured, a protective coating is applied to shield the foam from UV radiation and weathering. This coating can be a silicone, acrylic, or urethane material and is essential for extending the life of the foam roof. The protective coating also enhances the roof’s reflectivity, contributing to energy efficiency

What to Look for in a Foam Roof

Curling Shingles

Inspect the foam surface for any cracks or splits, which can indicate that the foam has been compromised and may allow water infiltration.

Blistering or Bubbling

Blisters or bubbles on the foam surface can signal that air or moisture has become trapped beneath the foam layer, potentially leading to leaks or further damage.

Ponding Water:

Check for areas where water tends to pool on the roof. Although foam roofing is designed to handle water, prolonged ponding can lead to deterioration over time.

Discoloration or UV Damage

Look for any signs of discoloration or degradation due to UV exposure. The protective coating may need to be reapplied to maintain the foam’s integrity.

Soft Spots

Walk the roof to detect any soft spots, which can indicate that the foam is losing its structural integrity and may need repair or replacement.

Seam Integrity

Ensure that any seams (if present) are intact and not separating, as this can lead to leaks and water damage
