Liquid Plastic Roofing Repair
A liquid roof coating that's thinning, cracking or peeling can usually be repaired locally, without redoing the whole roof.
Liquid roofing problems typically show as thinning or wear in high-traffic or ponding areas, cracking where the reinforcing fleece wasn't properly bedded at a joint or detail originally, or peeling where the surface wasn't adequately prepared before application.
Sherford Roofing repairs liquid roofing systems across Plymouth and Devon, re-applying coats to the affected area with fresh fleece reinforcement at any failed joints or detailing.
Our Process
Assess the Coating
We check for thinning, cracking or peeling and identify whether the fault is localised or more widespread.
Prepare the Area
The affected area is cleaned and, where needed, keyed back to give the repair a sound bond.
Re-Apply Fleece & Liquid
Fresh reinforcing fleece is bedded at any joint or detail, followed by liquid coats to match the existing membrane thickness.
Cure & Check
The repair is left to cure and checked to confirm the roof is fully sound.
Liquid Plastic Roofing Repair FAQs
This usually points to inadequate surface preparation before the original application, the coating hasn't properly bonded to the substrate at that point, which is why prep is such a critical part of correct installation.
Yes, in most cases a localised area can be prepared and re-coated to match the existing system, provided the rest of the roof is in reasonable condition.
It depends on whether it's just surface crazing or a genuine crack reaching the reinforcing fleece, worth having checked, since cracking at a joint or detail is more likely to actually leak than cracking in the open field.
