FiberMaxx is presented by the manufacturer as a one-pass system. FiberSeal Base uses a multi-step application. The right specification depends on your roof's condition — that's what the evaluation determines.

ROOF TYPES

Solutions for a range of commercial roofs

Manufacturer specifications cover several substrates. A listing here is not a guarantee that a particular roof qualifies; inspection and compatibility testing come first.

Roof illustrations from Fluid Applied Roofing show examples of restoration systems.

Metal roofs

Standing-seam and exposed-fastener metal roofs may be candidates. Preparation can include addressing loose rust, fasteners, seams and penetrations as required by the specification.

Single-ply membranes

Applications include TPO, EPDM and PVC. The existing membrane must be assessed for condition, adhesion and compatibility.

Built-up and modified bitumen

Built-up and modified-bitumen roofs may require substrate-specific preparation and primer to support adhesion and control bleed-through.

Spray polyurethane foam

Foam roof systems can use a fluid-applied protective membrane when the existing system is suitable and preparation follows the applicable specification.

Concrete roofs

Manufacturer specifications also address concrete roofs. Surface condition, moisture and repairs must be evaluated before selecting a system.

When replacement may be better

Extensive trapped moisture, structural problems or a severely deteriorated roof can require substantial repairs or replacement instead of restoration.
