Weather Barrier

Retail Facility Managers

Weather Barrier has been providing Retail Facility Managers with solutions to several of their every day problems.

If you have leaking flat or low sloped roofs that are out of warranty or in most cases are still under warranty.... Weather Barrier has the solution.

Our liquid applied roofing membranes are white in color which reflect the sun and lower the temperature of the roof by over 80 degrees. In turn this will lower your energy bills in most cases anywhere from 20% to 50%. Go to our GREEN ROOM to learn more about the benefits of white roof coatings.  By going with a liquid applied roofing membrane you also have no seams for moisture to enter. Even on NEW roofs 90% of the time the problem is seams or penetrations that are causing the leaks. With a Weather Barrier System you will have a monolithic system. NO SEAMS, NO LEAKS.  A Weather Barrier System will also extend the life of your roof and stop the degradation of your existing roof from the every day abuse from ambient weather conditions.

CURB APPEAL IS VERY IMPORTANT TO YOUR BUSINESS. THE FIRST THING YOUR CUSTOMERS SEE IS THE PAINT AND COLORS ON YOUR BUILDING.  When you are a retail facility manager the last thing you want to worry about are the colors fading or paint failing on the outside of your building. If the colors are fading or the paint is peeling whether it is true or not it is a reflection of how your business is run.

Commonly Asked Questions..........

What is a white roof coating?
A white coating consists of a polymeric binder blended with pigments and other additives to provide two main benefits: 1) protection of roof membranes, for longer roof life cycles; and 2) reflectivity of solar radiation, for lower air conditioning costs.

Why choose a white roof coating?
White roof coatings are applied on a variety of roof substrates or membranes for a variety of reasons. For example, white roof coatings provide protection against water, chemicals, or physical damage. Additionally, white roof coatings protect a roof against excessive temperatures and UV radiation by reflecting visible light and stopping ultraviolet radiation.

What are the benefits of white roof coatings?
White roof coatings provide three key attributes as part of a roofing system:

• The ability to help shed water and keep interiors dry
• The ability to help reduce cooling costs for buildings with A/C units, and to help reduce interior temperatures on buildings with no cooling units.
• The ability to protect and prolong the roof system life cycle by reducing the “thermal shock” stress associated with large temperature changes.

What types of roofing membranes can be coated with white roof coatings?
White coatings can be applied to practically any roofing surfaces, membranes, or substrates. They are commonly applied to sprayed polyurethane roofs to provide waterproofing. They can also be applied to metal roofs, single-ply rubber roofs and modified bitumen roofs. They can even be applied to certain kinds of asphalt roofs. It is important to establish compatibility between the white coating and the underlying roof membrane.

Should you consider a coating on a NEW roof?
All compatible new roofs have the option of applying a white roof coating in order to reduce heat loads to roof surfaces that are not reflective as well protecting the newly applied roof which will extend its service life. Some roof membrane manufacturers extend the roof membrane warranty when a reflective roof coating is applied over the newly installed product.
