Hydrostop is a roofing product from GAF that waterproofs every potential leak point on your commercial roof. Hydrostop roofing components work with existing roof materials to seal and waterproof your North Port business. Save on reroofing, tear-off and carting costs by keeping the roof you have. The HydroStop® PremiumCoat® System can solve most of your commercial roof dilemmas, all with one integrated process.
What HydroStop Is
Multiple layers are the secret to a secure, watertight bond with your existing roof. Say your building has built-up-roofing (BUR) that is getting well past its fail point. Consider that the existing substrate. Hydrostop is applied atop that:
- Foundation coat
- Non-woven polyester fabric — for roofs of any dimension, shape or pitch
- Foundation coat
- First finish coat
- Second finish coat
That is five additional layers of protection and waterproofing on top of your existing roof. Without having to tear off and cart away the old roof, you have saved your company time and money.
