Global Coatings

It is common knowledge that almost all traditional flat roof systems are littered with serious problems and do not perform well for long periods of time and on average need maintenance every 10 years which is our core competency.

These common flat roof problems are evident on all types of flat roof systems due to number of reasons, which we will briefly outline….

Old felt roofs - become dry over time and therefore always end up leaking due to becoming brittle & cracking (usually at the joints and seams etc)
Old Asphalt roof - Even asphalt has its fair share of problems including cracking, blistering and aligatoring from movement over time and bitumen oil bleed out.
Old Concrete Roofs – despite is solid nature concrete can become cracked and porous causing leaks etc.
Old Fibreglass – It is difficult to install correctly in an Irish climate and even when installed correctly it can easily crack or pop due to inability to expand and contract with the structure (usually timber OSB / Plywood)
Old Single Plys - (PVC, TPO & EPDM) – Single Ply can easily be installed incorrectly and leak on joints etc. it can be very hard to find a leak and even when installed correctly Single Ply can weaken over time, plasticise and become brittle
Old Metal Roofs – various problems include ordinary metal coatings fail and rust, fixings and edges etc rust and become compromised.
Old Asbestos Roofs – some problems include sheets cracking, fixing caps go missing over time and become rusted and compromised.
