WHY IS LIQUID BUTYL RUBBER THE BEST CHOICE?

If you are not using Liquid Butyl Rubber your roof is not getting the best roof coatings it deserves. Over a 25 year history of success, it has proven to be the best and most versatile coating on the market.

When looking for a long-term solution to your roof leak or extending your roof's life another 18-20 years, it is critical to choose the correct product the first time, so you don’t have to repeat the process later. We outlined several key benefits and characteristics of our Liquid BUTYL Rubber in the above bullet points. Equally important is looking at the overall cost. For example, what is cost per square foot and the resulting mil rate when dry? The thicker the mil rate the more protection and years added to your roof’s life. Does it require a primer or multiple coats? Why add unnecessary weight to a roof by using multiple-coat systems? These questions will not only determine the overall price you are paying for the product but also the additional installation costs assuming you are not applying it yourself. Our Liquid Butyl Rubber is a one-coat process, saving you time and money. There are no primers needed, so when you add up the cost of other systems that require primers and multiple coats, you have far exceeded the cost of Liquid Butyl Rubber. Also, our product is a solvent-based system not water-based making our product a superior choice. Why? Because Solvent-based coatings are significantly less susceptible to climate conditions, freezing temperatures and have a very high resistant to extreme weather conditions. Liquid Butyl Rubber will withstand ponding water literally 365 days a year! So, for everyone with a flat roof the choice should be clear.

Liquid Butyl Rubber has a thicker consistency that other coatings and results in a 20-mil film thickness. Other coatings may require 2 or 3 coats to achieve the same thickness. One of the main characteristics that makes Liquid Butyl Rubber so unique is in the chemistry of the drying process. As the product dries it chemically cross-links, creating a chemical bond whereby our coating and your roof fuse together to literally will become one in the same. Also, during the drying process the product will force out, and up to the surface, what would otherwise be trapped air (in other types of roof coatings). This is the reason other coatings have a tendency to crack after a few years especially elastomerics and water-based coatings. Our Liquid Butyl Rubber has a 500% elongation and over 1520 psi tensile strength allowing it to handle any roof that expands and contracts due to temperature changes. When the product dries what you have is a smooth seamless membrane.

Liquid Butyl Rubber can be applied directly on more types of roofs than other coatings on the market without the need for special primers. It has been the #1 roof coating recommended time and again by contractors throughout the USA. It is an economical and long-lasting solution, a proven alternative to roof replacement.

Liquid Butyl Rubber is applied in one coat at a 20-mil film (50 sq. ft per gallon) thickness and will still withstand extreme temperatures. That is the beauty of the product. Radical extremes in temperature where constant surface temperatures reach 250°F or above or -40°F or below is not an issue for this product. There is no need for a second coat. 1 gallon covers 50 sq ft and a 4 gallon covers 200 sq ft. Customer is responsible for determining their square footage.

25 years of field study and thousands of satisfied customers have made Liquid Butyl Rubber the roof repair solution for many applications. Liquid Butyl Rubber is so versatile it can easily be applied to metal, rubber, fiberglass, concrete, Hypalon TPO, BUR, foam and many other surfaces. Liquid Butyl Rubber has proven to outlast acrylic, urethane and elastomeric by a factor of three. There may be lower-cost products on the market, but none that have the long-term durability, waterproofing ability and tolerance to extreme temperatures like Liquid Butyl Rubber or EPDM Coatings. Other roofing coatings require two to three coats, so not only does this triple your material cost but also triples your labor expense. If you are looking to add less weight to your roof with a one coat system that has proven itself over the years look no further. Here is a sample of just some of the companies who have use our products and have returned time and time again!

EPDM coatings has been featured in Article Insider, as well as Roofers Exchange, Building Service Management and recently won Metal Roofing Magazines product of the year. EPDM coating products have always been made right here in the USA. In addition, we source our suppliers from the USA as well. The product comes with the catalyst already in the can. Simply mix the product with a drill mixer and you are ready to apply. Application is with a 3/8-inch nap roller. Simply put the lid on the product to avoid air getting to it to avoid the curing process. For any material left in the can, fasten the lid tightly and you can store it for up to five years. For best results, the product should be applied between temps of 50-100° Fahrenheit. If you are using spray equipment; then 70°. The product requires daytime temperatures of at least 50° to cure. Temperatures can fall below 50°, and once they rise again above the 50° it will continue to cure. Roof leak repairs are an unwelcome reality to every owner of a residential or commercial building, mobile home or recreational vehicle. Roof leak repairs can involve almost anything, including replacing damaged shingles, mending holes, fixing roof leaks, or repairing dents with roof coatings.

Featured Customer Testimonials

EPDM coatings had asked us to put together a summary of a project we completed three years ago in Connecticut. The project consisted of recoating an existing 15,000 sq. ft. epdm roof. Approx. age 14 years. The existing roof began chalking and retaining water in many areas. Also significant separation within the seamed areas had developed. Our crew first power washed and vacuumed the entire roof. Next day we came back and sealed off all separated seams with the two sided Butyl tape and did all our prep work around the seams, chimney's etc. Total project took 74 of the 5 gallon pails cost of materials was approx. $1.32 per square foot. Two other systems we explored was an acrylic elastomeric requiring two coats of material cost .55 per square foot so essentially 1.10 for the two coats and a butyl coating that require a primer. Both products there were at $1.43 a square foot. This does not include labor just material costs. Labor costs would have been about 2.2 times higher with the other products. We had spent two months over the summer going back and forth with the owner and researching what we were going to use for this roof and we had specific marching orders from the owner. They wanted a one coat system, did not want to have issues with ponding water and did not want to have to come back in a few years to repair it. After this first job we do not use any other product; hands down. There are many reasons but in the interest of time here you go. First it is the only roofing product in the U.S that is warrantied on flat roof against ponding water and that right was the deciding factor. It is not some cheap water based acrylic or elastomer I think we all know how those work essentially recoating them every 2-4 years. The Butyl Liquid Rubber cures by product and as it cures the Butyl Liquid Rubber will chemically bond itself to the roof you are applying it on. We have not seen any product with that type of chemistry and bonding properties without giving up any tensile strength. This is why it can claim its 18-20 year life expectancy. It really is the only roofing material we have seen that immediately waterproofs. On our third day late in the evening we had a shower come through and we needed to stop for the day. We called the company with our concerns since we thought the material that was not dry was a total loss. We came back the next afternoon and the water evaporated and the product continued to cure. In addition a portion of that area is where the owner had a nasty leak which by the way stopped even though the product did not have sufficient time to dry. If your client is looking for solid performing product that you'll never have to worry about getting a call from them saying the roof is leaking then this is it. If your client is just looking for the cheapest thing to coat your roof this is not the product and my suggestion is to run from that potential customer you can not use cheap materials and expect them to hold up for any length of time; it is just not worth the reputation all of us work so hard to develop over the years.

Stop making the same repairs using less reliable products that are not Butyl-based, are not UV and ozone resistant, and do not have flexibility built into the material (causing them to crack). Butyl rubber will expand and contract with any surface as seasons change and will not crack because of temperature fluctuations. Other products will begin to bubble and crack in less than two years.
