Here at Covenant Roofing we have formulated a Roof Waterproofing System that can outperform other systems offered by our competitors. It is important to understand what a Waterproof roof coating can and cannot do. Below is a detailed description of our system and what it can do for you.

Our Elastomeric Roof System starts with a thorough cleaning of your existing roof surface. We then apply a continuous coating of vinyl based cement slurry. This slurry coat helps fill cracks and voids in the existing roof surface. Once the slurry coat has dried, we seal the surface with our acrylic sealer. We then apply two coats of our Elastomeric sealer (available in most colors) and a final Gloss Roof Paint to match. Our most popular color is White due to the high reflectivity and energy savings.

Why Waterproof?

A properly applied roof waterproof system can extend the serviceable life of an existing roof system for many years. The expense is only a fraction of what a new roof system would be. The two main reasons given by Covenant Roofing customers are:

1. The need to extend the life of the existing roof for a few years until resources can be freed up to replace the entire roof system.

2. The need to match existing roof surfaces which have an existing waterproofing system installed.

Some roofing contractors do only waterproofing.

A major problem has developed in South Florida with some painting and roofing contractors that sell a lifetime or 20 year guarantee with their waterproofing system. Many times this system will be a single coat of an inferior elastomeric coating with no roof paint for UV protection. In a year or so, with the system failing, the homeowner calls the contractor, and if they are still in business, the contractor returns and sells yet another re-coating of the surface for 50% of the original price. The homeowner who has a legitimate warrantee concern succumbs to the high pressure sales tactics and will even think they are getting a good deal. 

Covenant Roofing is very realistic about our Elastomeric Systems

We have several hundred Elastomeric roof systems applied in South Florida. Our elastomeric roof system comes with a five year warrantee. The average life expectancy of this system is approx. 7-10 years. If there is a problem under warrantee, we handle it under warrantee. We can reapply the system and get another 5-7 years, but we do not recommend it. A roof system has a serviceable life expectancy and should not be forced to exceed that expectancy by more that 25%.
