Locate the affected areas
The roof concern, indoor effects and building use establish the starting inspection.
A coating can be useful when the existing roof is compatible, sound and dry enough to receive the specified system. It needs preparation, adhesion and sound details underneath it.
Restoration does not repair a failed deck or remove trapped moisture. Those conditions need correction first, and extensive wet areas can make replacement a more appropriate conversation. The assessment should establish suitability before a coating is selected.

The system and condition determine the physical work.
The existing membrane or roof surface must suit the coating. Surface condition, prior repairs and product compatibility affect adhesion.
Cleaning and preparation come before coating. Open seams, failed flashings and damaged areas need proper system repairs rather than being hidden under a fresh surface.
A new coating does not remove ponding caused by the roof’s shape or wet insulation trapped below it. Those conditions can require more extensive work.
The decision follows the building’s actual roof, rather than the appearance of its top surface.
| Condition or question | What it means |
|---|---|
| Sound dry roof with compatible surface | Restoration can be considered after needed repairs and preparation. |
| One local failure | A compatible repair may address the problem without coating the entire roof. |
| Wet insulation or deck failure | The damaged layers need removal or correction; coating alone is insufficient. |
