Liquid Flat Roofs

Be rain-resistant in 15 minutes or less

There are 2 primary variations of the liquid flat roof. Firstly, a liquid membrane roof, this method requires the application of a liquid coating over a reinforced material and base.

Then there are liquid roof coatings, these are designed to be sprayed onto roofing surfaces and in turn create a waterproof, protective layer.

Both utilise polymer-rich materials to provide a long-lasting watertight and weather resistant barrier on the surface of your roof. Despite this similarity, they are in fact, quite different.

  • Liquid roof membranes serve as a long-term protective barrier, liquid roof coatings are used to extend the life of a membrane.
  • Liquid roof coatings can fill smaller gaps but are not generally as effective as liquid roof membranes.
  • Liquid membranes will cost more than liquid roof coatings but provide you with a much more substantial return on your investment.

Polymer liquid systems

Polymer liquid systems are a popular option thanks to their quick curing time and ease of application on both cold and warm roof surfaces.

Polymer is a strengthened liquid roof system which allows for a rapid completion whilst also offering extensive UV protection, it’s a versatile and robust flat roof solution.

When to use it on a roof

Liquid waterproofing systems are widely considered to be one of the most cost effective methods of waterproofing your new or existing roof. Installed in the correct manner, and under the proper guidance, liquid waterproofing systems can offer up to 25 years of protection. Equally effective as a refurbishment method, homeowners could save as much as 70% over other roofing options.

ELC Roofing Group has a well-earned reputation for providing our customers with honest advice and guidance and delivering world-class finished projects at super competitive prices. Our expert team is always on hand to answer any questions you might have about your specific requirements and how a liquid flat roof could prove beneficial to you.

But when exactly would you choose a liquid waterproofing system in preference to a single-ply membrane?

  • Refurbishment: Liquid applied waterproofing is seamless and fully bonds to the substrate making it ideal to use over an existing roof (including single-ply
    membranes) to extend its life.
  • Repair: If an existing material has failed, a simple liquid waterproofing overlay can be a cost-effective solution.
  • Inverted roofs: Liquid waterproofing also proves useful with inverted roofs when a membrane is laid under the insulation and ballast.
  • Pitched and flat roofs: Unlike many kinds of single-ply or felt roofing systems, liquid waterproofing can also be applied to roofs below 5 degrees pitch.

Installation and maintenance

Typically, liquid coating and membrane products are required to be installed by approved contractors and specialists. Our highly-skilled and experienced team of installation engineers are experts in installing and maintaining liquid flat roofs. By carefully, safely and successfully completing the installation of your liquid flat roof, you can rest assured that your roof is suitably protected.

It is important to adhere to regular maintenance of your liquid flat roof. By examining the sealant regularly and ensuring that your roof is free from overhanging trees and other organic growths, your roof will be best placed to offer lasting protection from the elements. The surface will also require regular cleaning which can be done with a pressure washer or simply rinsing the surface with clean, cold water.

Benefits of single-ply membranes

A cold-applied liquid coating will often develop a rubber-like elastomeric waterproof membrane once cured. This allows the membrane to stretch and return to its original shape without any damage.

Other benefits include:

  • Excellent adhesion
  • Chemical resistant
  • High resistance to extreme temperatures
  • Seamless waterproofing
  • No heat or specialist equipment
