Many home additions and garages are rolled asphalt. This type
of roof is very susceptible to the extreme stress caused by heat during hot summer
months. An asphalt roof can reach temperatures as high as 170 degrees causing
the asphalt to eventually blister and break down. Once blistered and cracked
water can enter as ice in the winter months and cause further damage and
leaking.
CanAM's elastomeric coatings are very well suited to this roofing style and
this type of roof once coated with a CanAM elastomeric product as seen below will no
longer suffer these harsh temperature swings and will last many more years
before further repairs are necessary.
