Cold Applied Liquid Roofing Systems
Cold Applied Liquid Roofing Systems Overview
Cold applied liquid roofing systems are a type of roofing solution that involves applying a liquid coating that cures to form a seamless, durable, and waterproof membrane. These systems are particularly suitable for flat or low-sloped roofs and can be used for both new construction and roof refurbishment projects. The liquid roofing materials typically include polyurethane, acrylic, or silicone-based coatings.
Benefits of Cold Applied Liquid Roofing Systems
1. Seamless Waterproofing
- **Elimination of Joints and Seams: Cold applied liquid coatings create a seamless membrane that eliminates the risk of leaks often associated with traditional roofing systems that have joints or seams.

7. Minimal Disruption
