Restoration candidate
The assembly is suitable, moisture and repairs can be addressed, and the compatible system fits the roof and drainage conditions.
A coating adds a protective surface to an existing roof system. Before choosing it, the roof needs to be checked for moisture, deterioration, adhesion, drainage and compatibility with the coating. The inspection decides whether restoration has a sound place to begin.
A bright new surface cannot dry wet insulation or repair a failed deck. Open seams, weak flashings and unsuitable materials need correction before coating. If deterioration is widespread, replacement can address the assembly instead of preserving a failing foundation.

Preparation and existing conditions determine more than the final color.
The existing assembly needs suitable dry support. Suspected trapped moisture may need testing to establish what must be removed.
Seams, penetrations, drains and flashings require system-specific repair. A coating must not be treated as filler for a defective connection.
The substrate must be prepared for the selected product. Compatibility and adhesion need to be established for that roof.
Coverage, thickness, reinforcement and weather conditions follow the product system. Building access and rooftop equipment use affect the work plan.
The existing roof must earn its place beneath a restoration system.
The assembly is suitable, moisture and repairs can be addressed, and the compatible system fits the roof and drainage conditions.
Widespread trapped moisture, damaged support or deteriorated layers can make removal the useful option. Recoating the surface leaves those conditions underneath.
Leak paths and failed details need repair before the coating system is applied. The product and roof condition control what restoration can accomplish.
No. Existing material, contamination, surface preparation and compatibility affect the choice. Product-specific requirements matter.
