Solving leaky rooftops

Hurricane season is upon us, and you ‘re probably thinking about how to fi x the leaks in your old roof. Whether you want to do it yourself or have a contractor do it for you, this is the time to attend the Cool Roof Store Sale and Hands-on Demo so that you never have to reroof again.

On Saturday, July 16, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., the Cool Roof Store, in conjunction with Leakmaster Roofing, will show you everything you need to know about your roof.

This year the company has a special guest speaker from NXT Cool Coat who will tell you about all the new advances in roof-coating materials. There will be a big one-day only discount on most of the store’s bestselling products. The lowest prices of the year are at this one-day sale.

If you don’t know much about your roof, don’t worry. The company will have experts on hand who can even figure out how big your roof is by using Google Earth. All that is needed is your address.

It’s always great fun with large crowds and surprises, so come early for a good seat. Also, make sure to attend the Getting Started Seminar at 9 a.m. or noon. This is the big one that everyone arrives early for and it’s often difficult to find an open seat. This time, however, there is no need to cut your breakfast short because the 9 a.m. seminar will be repeated in its entirety at noon.

Throughout the entire day, the event will have experts answering these types of questions at the following demonstrations:

Flat Roof Demo.

What are the four most common mistakes applicators make? How long do I wait between coats? When do I need primer? How much topcoat do I need?

Metal Roof Seminar. How do I know if my metal roof is too far gone to coat? What is the best metal primer for my roof? Is there something I can do to cover up the rust holes? Do I need to put roof tape over the horizontal and vertical seams?

Monier Tile Seminar: When do I use the penetrating primer versus the concrete primer? Do I need to replace cracked monier tiles, or can I repair them? What do I do about my missing concrete grout along the ridge tiles?

Asphalt Shingle Seminar: Why do some people say you can’t coat shingle roofs? Why do you use so much super roof primer on your roof? What colors will blend in best with my neighborhood? Should I coat my roof before or after the PV solar installation?

Finally, bring any photos and measurements of your roof to the event so Cool Roof Store’s staff can calculate exactly how much coating you will need. If you don’t know your roof size, don’t worry. At the seminar, a company rep should be able to access Google Earth and measure your roof for you.
