Description
Liquid roofing systems offer a safer, more adaptable, and sustainable alternative to traditional sheet-based methods, addressing key issues such as water ingress, fire risk, and installation complexity while providing improved performance, easier maintenance, and enhanced compliance with modern building standards.
Key Points:
- Superior Waterproofing & Safety: Liquid systems are seamless, reducing water ingress risks, and are cold-applied, minimizing fire hazards compared to torch-on felt or single-ply membranes.
- Ease of Application & Versatility: Products like Sentch PU and APA Polyol offer extended working times, low odour, and compatibility with complex roof shapes, metal substrates, and balconies.
- Quality Assurance & Sustainability: Backed by BBA certification, these systems are installed by trained contractors under strict quality controls, use eco-friendly materials, and support thermal upgrades for compliance.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the common failures of traditional roofing systems and how liquid systems mitigate them.
- Identify key features of modern liquid roofing products that enhance performance, safety, and environmental sustainability.
- Learn best practices for building assessments, installation monitoring, and contractor training to ensure compliance and durability in roofing projects.
