Firstly, SPF Roofing stands for Sprayed Polyurethane Foam Roofing. SPF is a mix of two different chemicals- polyol and isocyanate. These two chemicals are moved through a pump which also acts as a proportion system and heater to feed the mix as a liquid through an attached spray gun. The substance is then sprayed as a single, continuous membrane which has a very high level of stability. In order for this process to be successful, the substance must be applied to a roof that is efficiently cleaned, well dried, and free of external contaminants such as debris, greases, or oils. This allows the product to properly bond. The surface must also be properly fastened to the substrate according to the local building code. Afterward, a protective topcoat is required, and usually, this is then sprayed on. The topcoat can however also be applied with hand rollers or power rollers.

What are the benefits of SPF roofing? The SPF coating is extremely durable. It is self-flashing, and this helps it effectively seal out any possible leaks. The additional top coating provides a powerful layer of weather protection and can be applied as a slope to drain water effectively. Maintenance costs are also a factor, as maintaining SPF roofing is simple and inexpensive. Generally, any damages can simply be repaired with quality caulking. However the reason most choose to go with Polyurethane foam as a roofing solution is the energy savings yielded from the thermal insulation provided by the compound. No other roofing material as as such a great insulator- and the costs in reduced air conditioning and therefore electrical usage usually pay for the roofing service in around 4.5 years.
