COOL YOUR ROOF, STOP LEAKS AND SAVE


February 28, 2018

Using a white Energy Star® cool roof coating reduces cooling costs. Real world experiences give us examples of cooling a 128° roof surface to ~ 85° simply by applying a cool roof coating such as Topps Seal. More importantly, the cool roof coating also stops leaks and extends the life of the roof. A cooler roof moves less and, if any maintenance is needed, it is greatly reduced.

The benefits and cost savings from reducing maintenance and cooling costs, over time, may very well pay for the entire cost of resurfacing over a period of 10 years of savings or less. That’s a strong reason for investing in a new cool roof surface now.

You gain these benefits – energy savings, maintenance reduction, seal roof leaks – like you would with a new white roof, but at a fraction of the cost of a new roof.

Why replace your entire roof, when less than 10% of the roof may be your problem? A new surface is all that is normally needed.

HOW DO I FIX HOLES IN MY GUTTER?


February 28, 2017

No liquid applied product alone will successfully fix holes in gutters. The best solution is to cut and attach flashing metal to cover the holes, and then seal it in a bed of liquid Polyprene®. Also, seal all edges on the perimeter of your patch with Topps Polyprene®. Polyprene is a heavy-bodied and equally heavily fibered 100% mastic that simply can never dry out and get brittle, creating a durable seal for gutters, seams and flashings.

HOW IMPORTANT IS COMMERCIAL ROOF REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE

HOW IMPORTANT IS COMMERCIAL ROOF REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE


February 28, 2017

According to the International Building Code (IBC), the roof is a commercial building’s first line of defense from natural hazards such as wind, rain, fire, hail, ice, snow, and extreme heat. Your commercial roof is also the most vulnerable part of your building. Every day, your roof is exposed to weather and other elements that may contribute to decay and deterioration, increasing the risk of damage to the commercial roof itself and the contents below it.

The IBC sets safety standards for commercial building, and requires that roofs “serve to protect the building.” Having a roof that “protects the building” starts with design, materials selection, and installation at the time a facility is built or remodeled; events that occur infrequently and may be outside the scope of most businesses’ ongoing activity.

But “protecting the building” also includes a regular program of commercial roof inspection, commercial roof maintenance, and commercial roof repair – activities that should be part of your operational planning in order to prolong the useful life of your roof and make sure it does its job in protecting your business from weather damage.

Companies choose Topps, like Sunny Delight, Husqvarna and hundreds of school districts across the U.S., to “protect their building” by incorporating regular routine commercial roof maintenance and commercial roof repair as a part of their normal operations.

I HAVE A ROOF LEAK THAT SOMEONE TOLD ME IS FROM CONDENSATION, WILL A ROOF COATING STOP THIS?

Unfortunately, no. If you experience roof leaks when it doesn’t rain you likely are dealing with a roof condensation issue. This occurs when moist damp air (inside) hits a cold surface at the “dew point” temperature, such as your roof, and condenses. Potentially you can change the interior temperature at the ceiling enough by ceiling fans that reverse air flow in winter. Remember, hot air rises. Mixing it with cooler air at floor level sometimes can be enough to disrupt the process and save you some heating costs as well. Otherwise under roof insulation and/or vents are required.

HOW DO YOU PICK A ROOF COATING?

Coatings are no more the same in quality, than prime roofing membranes, automobiles or houses! The better ones will do the intended job, but only when appropriate installation measures are prescribed AND followed.

It’s a good idea to understand what you’re getting and whether a roof coating can save you money. Topps has a new 12 page free booklet that does this. It covers the “why”, “how”, and even gives a comparison of product based upon governmental test standards. It’s something that most people often overlook or don’t realize exists. Call today and we’ll send you the free booklet!

Know who really makes the coating under that label you’re buying. The practice of many so called “manufacturers” is to buy product of others – often at the lowest price on the dollar – and claim it to be theirs. Topps manufacturing is by our own people with ingredients and output that we control. They are backed by realistic warranties – not a shell company operating out of a rental package delivery store and “virtual office” somewhere. Brick and mortar cement us to your success rather than a light switch and just warranty words on paper.

Looking to coat your roof with a highly reflective, all white, energy efficient coating? Call Topps today at 800-867-7177 or 855-867-7176.
