Foam Roofing

Have you thought about foam roofing for your Phoenix, Arizona home? As Arizonians, we look for anyway to cool down during the long summer months. Whether it’s spending hours in the pool or sitting in front of a fan all day, we will do whatever we can. Fortunately, there are ways of cooling our homes down and one of those is foam roofing.  

What is Foam Roofing? 

Foam roofing is the process of spraying a commonly flat roof with a Polyurethane Foam that expands about 20x to cover the entire roof. The foam thickens and solidifies to create a waterproof barrier.  

What is the Foam Roofing installation process like?  

  1. Roof prep includes clearing debris and gravel. 
  1. From a machine inside the truck, the hose will be connected to include the spray gun at the end. 
  1. The roofer will bring the spray gun alongside the house and onto the roof to begin the spray foam process. 
  1. For the first layer, the Polyurethane foam will be sprayed. 
  1. The second layer will be a base coat of paint.  
  1. Following the second layer will be the white topcoat.

No matter what type of roof you have, maintenance and inspections really are important. But let us go ahead and answer your question to help put your mind at ease… 

The roofer will be looking at all the following roofing material to ensure the condition and integrity is at it should be.  

  • Soffits, Fascia, and Drip Edges 
  • Gutters 
  • Flashings  
  • Tiles 

While the inspector is making sure all the roofing materials are in good shape, they’ll also be checking the roof penetration points. The inspector will ensure these areas are properly sealed to avoid any water damage. As they’re checking the points, they’ll be on the lookout for any other holes or roof damage. As well as the roof, they’ll go into the attic to verify there isn’t any damage. If they find anything that needs to be repaired or replaced, they’ll show you and provide options.
