Project Overview
In Eagle River, Alaska, one of our customers was looking for a dependable way to protect their flat roof from extreme weather. From heavy snowfall and freezing temperatures to intense summer sun, the conditions in Alaska can quickly compromise traditional roofing materials.
While their roof was still in fair condition, they wanted a long-term waterproofing solution that would bond directly to their Grace Ice & Water Shield without complicated prep work or multiple coats.
After evaluating several options, they found only one product that checked every box: EPDM Coatings’ Liquid Rubber Roof Coating.
Why They Chose EPDM Liquid Rubber Roof Coating
Our product stood out because it offered:
- No primer required – Bonds directly to the substrate.
- One-coat application – Saves time and labor.
- Solvent-based formulation – Creates a deeper, more durable bond.
- Waterproof in just three hours – Immediate protection after application.
Although the cost per 5-gallon pail was higher than competing products, the customer saved both time and money by eliminating primers and multiple coats.
The Application Process
- Surface Preparation – The customer ensured the Grace Water Shield was clean and dry.
- Product Application – Our liquid rubber roof coating was rolled on evenly across the entire flat roof.
- Curing Time – Within hours, the surface was fully waterproof and ready to face Alaska’s unpredictable weather.
The application went smoothly, and the coating created a seamless, protective barrier designed to withstand years of exposure.
Before and After
The difference was clear:
- Before – Plain underlayment exposed to the elements.
- After – Sleek, professional finish providing complete waterproof protection.
