Case Study
Commercial Flat - Roof Coating  Business Park - Manchester

Overview:

This flat roof, spanning 400m², had 57 breaches and membrane imperfections identified during our specialist leak detection survey. These issues, including splits, pinholes, and damaged areas, required urgent attention to restore the roof’s integrity and prevent further water ingress.

 

Challenges​

The damaged roof posed multiple challenges:
  • Numerous breaches across the whole roof. 
  • A large surface area requiring comprehensive treatment.
  • The need to ensure minimal disruption to business activities
  • Specialist high-level access solutions and safe working systems were essential to complete the project safely and efficiently.

Our Solution

  • We refurbished the roof using the Sika Decothane Reinforced Liquid Membrane System, a high-performance solution for flat roof coating. The process included:

  • Cleaning: The entire roof area was cleared of debris and treated with an anti-fungal wash to prepare the surface.
  • Priming: The roof was coated with EPDM primer, which was allowed to cure fully.
  • Base Layer Application: A red base layer of the Sika system was installed, incorporating reinforcement to enhance durability.
  • Topcoat Application: The topcoat was applied across the entire roof area, providing a seamless, long-lasting waterproof finish.
  • Finishing Touches: Any drain covers were reinstalled, ensuring proper drainage and functionality.
