He’s not raising the area with ponding water. He simply applied one layer even extending it outside of the area with ponding water. It may stop the leak but not the ponding. To stop the ponding he needs to raise and level off the deeper spot with the higher one.
Question is how do you make the ponding area level ?
@inappropriatemushroom4709 there's a ponding filler I believe it's buy APOC. Not sure it's possible to accept a seal over it once it cures though. I saw a video on UA-cam showing how they applied the ponding product.
We don't need to raise the ponding area as our coating will hold up to ponding water without deteriorating or leaking.
Exactly, Johnny, this system will not get rid of the ponding much and hopefully it can endure its negative effects on the roofing system.
This system is not intended to get rid of ponding water, it is designed to endure ponding water
Kasha, what do you suggest? I have a flat roof and just noticed ponding.
Fishing.
Question is how do you make the ponding area level , do you have an idea ?
I agree, its no use if you don't raise it to prevent pending.
There are different products on the market to fill low areas of ponding. Henry makes Pond Patch that works and there is also a product called Roofslope. You can try them and see what you prefer...
Admire the neatness of the worker.
We do too!
Anyways torchdown would have been the best solution for that particular location.
This will last about a month or two. The cap sheet is oil based and that white jizz is water based. They naturally repel each other.
That's nice work. But before proceeding to roof coating roof cracks repair is the very essential for long lasting roof waterproofing and results as well. So far our experience is only coating is not enough to hold water leakages for a long time.
Roof cracks can be addressed using our product and reinforcing with mesh as well
Thanks for the informative video, awesome
Well then the question is: Does this system endure ponding water and if so for about how long (obviously would vary by climate)?
And how can it be proved without using the public and working professionals as the experimenters with expenses etc..?
We offer 10, 15 & 20 year renewable warranties when work is performed by an approved contractor. We have testing results to back up our claims and projects that have had our system on it which are now going in to year 20
Dumbest response I’ve heard from a “professional”. You fix the problem not put a bandage over it!

The video is a little misleading. They're not really here to help anyone. They're here to sell a service.

Unfortunately, in my experience, it is very rare to see a proper solution applied. Flat roofs seem to be prohibitively expensive to service and in my area it is absolutely the contractors inflating the pricing making it almost no choice for building owners to opt for an actual permanent solution.
you're right... if i have to redo a large asphalt roof, even just to torch a new layer and all flashing and edges done... it might take me 2 days but i will take 10-20k for it depending on the size

that stuff looks thin how is it going to build up where the water ponds?
It is not intended to build up where water ponds, it will hold up under ponding water. You can use a cement product to build up an area if need be, but necessary with our system.

Cleaned the problem area, then proceeded to lay fabric and coating well into the dirty area...!?
Nobody's gonna know?
C'mon we wanted to see you build up positive slope with a leveling material... then coat it with elastomeric

what is the fabric?
It is a proprietary poly-mesh blend used in conjunction with our coating to create a long lasting roof system.
so and how this method fixes the standing water issue? with hope that the water will not penetrate ? it's a false hope.
Our coating is designed with marine resins so in the unlikelihood of the water being 2' deep and ponding for 2 weeks it would not penetrate or break down the coating.
Why not just sink the roof at the low point with a drain
Looks good could it work for EPDM
Yes our coating adheres to all materials except silicone
SureCoat Systems, Is the channel that directs water to the drain called a 'Paraffin' ?
Title ? Error, nothing here on ponding

You don't need to make ponding area level, our coating will withstand ponding water
Huge 3 course
Don't fix the roof just fix that spot, got it
Our system is ideal for patches, repairs and full roof restorations
Most roofing contractors don't specialize in flat roof ponding fabrication. Creative people will cut a 8 foot diagnol slope using plywood & torchdown roofing. In general,, usually ponding water will dry up in 5 days --> good gosh. But hay, if it dries in 5 days so be it. Some people pay 50k to turn a flat roof into a traditional roof. Ouch. If it's only 1 area, i'd say, clean it, prep it, and put silicone to withstand the 5 days.
@@kendalgee5808 that's exactly what I'm thinking. I'm a huge proponent of doing things right the first time. But if you can stop a roof leak with a band-aid thats going to buy you 5-10 years, and it's going to save you hundreds of thousands of dollars, that's a no-brainer.
@@kendalgee5808 Seen roofdoc do the 8'slope like a Niagara falls, I am currently researching. I need to raise my roof and drop it..
This wont get rid of the water pounding!

@@inappropriatemushroom4709 its done by raising the structure, using a jack to raise the structure and screwing another 2x4 to the rafter to secure it.
Sehr auffällig in der Farbe Weiss! In Grau würde die Flickarbeit weniger auffällig sein. 🤷
This is the same shit that was put on my roof by some clown. It peels up so fast.
All of our SureCoat projects are registered - if you could give me your project name & contractor I would love to look into this a little more for you.
Sorry, currently in lawsuit.
@@Timpala44 howd the lawsuit go? Was it applied to a dirty roof or silicone? I gotta roofer doing it to my roof now and am super nervous. Thanks in advance
@@Timpala44 whats the update??
@@easley421 Here are some thoughts that will help your anxiety. IMO, the qualifications to be a roofer are 1) High school drop out 2) alcoholic 3) drug user 4) Someone who was lazy in high school and liked to take shortcuts 5) people who can't read, especially when it comes to big words and reading technical manufacturers directions.
That repair ain't got last long. Yall forgot to add primer before the coating and second of all yall coat it will it was still humid wet.. So its not gonna cure probability...

Half off work
Not professional
Water base products on ponding areas. Are going to fail. Come on people. And if the surface is wet how can it adhere to water. Use like materials. Roofing 101.
Thanks for your reply and the opportunity to educate you a little on our products. SureCoat products are formulated with marine resins and designed for prolonged exposure to water and heat and will not break down. The substrate can be damp due to cleaning but not ponding or pooling and adhesion is not affected. Give us a call for an adhesion test kit and check it out for yourself. 877-823-7873
