  The APA Advanced Polyol is a safer alternative to PMMA-based products. It offers extended working time, low odor, non-flammability, and is eco-friendly. Its properties enable easy application while ensuring high performance and safety for installers.

• Why are traditional flat roofing systems prone to leaks? 🛠️

  Traditional systems, particularly those with laps like felt and single-ply roofs, can retain water at the seams, making them vulnerable to leaks. Liquid roofing solutions eliminate these laps and provide a continuous membrane that reduces the likelihood of water ingress.

• What advantages do liquid roofing solutions offer, compared to traditional methods? 💧

  Liquid roofing solutions offer several advantages, such as reduced fire risk, adaptability to complex designs, and a seamless application that minimizes weak points. They're designed to be cost-effective, reduce waste, and lower the risk of water penetration.

• What are some common issues with existing flat roofs? 🌥️

  Common issues include UV degradation, resulting in material breakdown, blistering due to moisture buildup, and cracks that can lead to leaks. These problems often necessitate patch repairs, which may not be entirely effective in addressing underlying issues.

• What types of flat roofing systems are commonly used? 🏠

  The most common types of flat roofing systems include asphalt, felt, and single-ply membranes. Each of these systems has its own benefits and drawbacks, but they often face issues like UV degradation, blistering, and cracks over time.
