Can this be used on a walkable concrete deck over a garage? Which product?

Wed, 17 Jan 2024 22:59:47 +0000

I have a 1500 sq foot concrete deck over our garage with embedded hydronic snowmelt (almost never used). There is a stubborn leak in one area. We've tried a concrete sealer/paint but it was too thin and brittle and did not adhere in some places but I don't think that is the problem but since I don't know the actual problem, who knows. The deck has bituthene flamed down membrane underneath the concrete but the leak is in an area that didn't have the bituthene (removed barbecue).

My belief is that if I completely seal from the house out to the drip edge with this product, instead of counting on the membrane under the concrete, the waterproofing will be above the concrete and will form an impenetrable barrier.

So, the questions are. (a) Will this approach work (b) Can this material be used for a light duty walkable deck (residential). (c) There is one area with 1/2" pooled water in the winter/spring. (d) This is Lake Tahoe at 6500 feet so a fair amount of snow, temps between 5 and 95 degrees. (e) Is the surface slippery when wet? (f) Can it be colored tan. (g) Is it unattractive? (h) Can it be covered with pavers after a year or two of testing its water resistance?

Answered: what product can i use to clean my epdm coated roof

Mon, 10 Jul 2023 15:37:04 +0000

We recommend different from regular cleaners like Dawn our Roof Protect, an eco-friendly, biodegradable cleaner designed to complement our Liquid Butyl Rubber products and give you the best results from your roof coating application. Apply prior to power washing. Our Roof Protect emulsifies contaminants and provides improved surface preparation and adhesion by effectively removing oil, grease, mildew, dirt, and other soils from your roofing membrane. You can also use Roof Protect annually to further protect your roof allowing, dirt, grease, etc. to be removed, further extending your roof's service life. It also contains a mildewcide to kill any mold spores on your roof prior to application.

Answered: can this be applied in humidity?

Mon, 10 Jul 2023 15:12:23 +0000

Yes, humid weather is acceptable as long as rain is not in the forecast for 3-4 hours. Although a light rain can directly fall on the Liquid BUTY Rubber 2-3 hours after it has been applied (assuming temps above 60°), we suggest you plan a day when rain is not in the forecast. Liquid Butyl Rubber may be applied at any temperature however we suggest between 45°-95° for best results. Liquid BUTYL Rubber needs a temperature of at least 50° for the product to cure.

For more info please call our office.

Answered: How does liquid butyl rubber compare to silicone roof coatings for repairing leaking seams on a flat rubber roof?

Mon, 08 May 2023 15:04:02 +0000

Silicone coatings are a good product, that is why we sell them also but it's not fair to compare them with our Liquid Butyl Rubber which is on another level, you see it'll chemically bond with the surface you apply it to vs silicone you could peel it off eventually. For further info please call our office.
