Koppers Roof Resaturants are used to extend the life of a roof
through preventive roof maintenance, by resaturating weathered
tar and gravel or asphalt roofs.
Many factors play a part in the service life of a roof. Some factors
are uncontrollable. But there are some aspects of roof degradation
that can be anticipated and an end result predicted.
Regular, preventive maintenance can help extend
the life of the roof. Even though the roof may not be leaking,
preventive maintenance should be established. Koppers technical
staff – or your roofing consultant – will consider
the age, the type of bitumen used to construct the roof, and general
condition.
The use of Koppers Roof Resaturants offers an effective means of
implementing preventive roof maintenance. We can help put off
the day when the roof will fail and replacement will be the only
answer.
