Spray Foam Roofing
Our spray foam roofing system creates a seamless, waterproof barrier that expands to fill cracks and bonds to surfaces like metal and concrete. It offers superior insulation with high R-value per inch, reducing energy costs by up to 40%. The system includes UV-resistant coatings for long-term durability and meets ENERGY STAR and Title 24 standards. Ideal for irregular roof shapes, it minimizes labor costs and downtime while providing lightweight, code-compliant protection.
Roof Restoration Coating
This UV-reflective coating extends roof lifespan by sealing seams and preventing leaks. It reduces heat absorption, lowering cooling costs by up to 40%, and prevents thermal expansion damage. The system encapsulates existing SPF roofs, maintaining waterproofing and energy efficiency. With over 100 million square feet installed, it offers a cost-effective alternative to full replacement while meeting Cool Roof standards for sustainability and performance.
Tank Insulation
Our closed-cell SPF insulation forms a monolithic barrier that stabilizes stored products and reduces energy loss. It resists vapor, odor, and environmental stress while outperforming traditional systems in cost and durability. Ideal for chemical, food, and LNG storage, it lowers operating costs and maintenance needs. The systems high R-value per inch ensures customized thermal protection, with installations exceeding 5 million square feet nationwide.
Waterproofing Systems
We specialize in above- and below-grade waterproofing for walls, decks, and subterranean structures. Our systems use advanced injection methods and expansion joints to prevent water intrusion in parking garages, plaza decks, and industrial facilities. Solutions include petrochemical-resistant coatings and anti-skid finishes, ensuring structural integrity and compliance with safety standards. Expert application minimizes risk of failure in critical infrastructure.
Cold Storage Insulation
Our SPF insulation creates controlled environments for cold storage facilities, maintaining stable temperatures for perishables. It seals gaps to prevent air leakage, improving energy efficiency and recovering costs faster than conventional systems. Designed for food processing, pharmaceuticals, and logistics, it resists moisture and corrosion while offering fast installation. Over 45 years of experience ensures compliance with USDA and FDA standards for hygiene and safety.
