WHAT IS SPRAY POLYURETHANE FOAM

Spray polyurethane foam, commonly referred to as SPF is a spray-applied plastic that is installed as a liquid and then expands many times its original size. The same basic material that makes insulation foam semi-rigid and soft to the touch also creates high density roofing foam that is resistant to foot traffic and water. Specialized equipment is used to apply the spray polyurethane foam and proper technical training is important in order to get the best results.

Spray polyurethane foam is the king of building materials for multitasking. For roofing, spray polyurethane foam insulates and eliminates thermal bridging through fasteners or gaps in decking while providing a long-lasting roofing system that has a life that can be extended by re-coating or recovering in an average of 10 years. As a result spray polyurethane foam is used in a wide variety of applications including, but is not limited to:
  1. Roofing
  2. Air barriers
  3. Commercial and residential insulation in walls, ceilings, attics and basements

Spray Foam Roofing

  1. Insulating qualities of R-7 per one inch thickness.
  2. Energy saving on heating and cooling.
  3. Sustainable "green" roof system.
  4. Minimal or no impact on occupants
  5. No tear-off, therefore less debris in landfills.
  6. Title 24 compliant.
  7. Conforms to any surfaces.
  8. Possible rebates available.
  9. Zero Volatile Organic Compounds (V.O.C.s) - No fumes.
10. Little or no maintenance.
11. Lightweight - Lightest roof system available.
12. Significant sound reduction.

Traditional Roofing

BUILT-UP-ROOFING

Commonly referred to as; "Tar & Gravel" or "Hot Tar". A roof system with a demonstrated track record of 75 -100 years, which still accounts for over half of the flat roofing systems installed in California. A tough, durable system with multiple redundant layers of waterproofing material, available in a variety of finishes.

CLAY TILE

Clay is considered an upgrade over concrete tile. A special underlayment is required. Clay can be offered in one-piece and two-piece styles.

COMPOSITION SHINGLES

Composition is far and away the most popular and widely-used residential roofing material. This system has a wide spectrum of life-expectancies from 25, 30, 40, 50-year or life-time guaranteed effective use. In addition, we offer many high-end 50-year composition shingle systems, and at the apex: elegant lifetime systems. 25-year shingles are used on most starter-homes and have little or no texture. 30, 40, and 50-year shingles have a unique dimensional or architectural look with good curb appeal. The lifetime design shingles are considered specialty shingles and can be tailored specially to suit the ambiance of your home.

CONCRETE TILE

This type is considered a "lifetime" roof and is typically used on upper-end homes. As their weight is an issue, a home must be engineered, or otherwise evaluated, to handle 1,000 pounds per 'square' (A square is a roofing term for a 100 square-foot area).

DECK COATINGS

Attractive, customizable, durable and trafficable fluid applied deck coatings. Available in GACO, Metacrylics and most other major coating manufacturers.

GREEN ROOFING

Wedge Roofing is a 'Build It Green' certified contractor, we offer Complete Green LEED approved, Title 24 compliant, green roofing systems. Including roof-top gardens to offset carbon footprint, installation of solar-hybrid roofing systems for energy savings and our use of recycled materials. Many of our roofing systems are considered energy-saving and green and can secure your home LEED points.

METAL ROOFING

There are two styles of metal roofing to choose from. Screwdown (with exposed fasteners) is used on most standard homes. These fasteners generally require normal maintenance every seven to ten years. Standing seam is a metal roof system which uses concealed fasteners, this is considered an upgrade and is the longer-lasting of the two.

(MODIFIED) FLAT ROOFING

Modified roofing is made by all shingle manufacturers. It can be installed by many methods including "hot mopped," or even "self-adhering" so no heat source is required. Modified roofing is used on most commercial applications as well as patio roofs and in the waterproofing of walk-on decks.

SINGLE-PLY ROOFING

Single-ply roofing is available in Carlisle, Duro-Last or other major manufacturers, which do not require a flame for installation or a kettle. These systems typically qualify for up to 20 year warranties.

SLATE ROOFING

Similar to concrete tile, slate is a higher-end, very heavy material. In order to install slate roofing, a house must be engineered to support over 1,000 pounds per square.

SYNTHETIC SLATE

This system is not as pricey as real slate and also not as heavy. No special bracing is required as most homes can handle the weight.

WOOD SHINGLES

Two styles of wood shingles are available. Wood shingles are the smaller of the styles (18") and installed over open lathe at a 5" exposure. Wood shakes are 24" installed using #30 felt at a 10" exposure. Most city codes require that any installed wood shingles be fire treated.

Service and Repairs

Same-day "24-Hour" Emergency Service

When it rains it pours, and when it's pouring in on your home or business, time is the enemy. You have a housing or business emergency, but don't think police or fire departments would be very helpful...

The first step is to call us now at 888-763-ROOF or 707-763-5475. We can have a crew out to put a temporary stop to the leak the same day, often within an hour. The best way to avoid roof problems which result in emergency repair is to implement a Wedge Roofing, Inc. Annual Maintenance Service Program. For information on our proactive maintenance programs, please contact us.

The next step is to protect the interior of your home or business.
  • Find something to collect the incoming water. A Pan, bucket or trashcan will work. Remember to empty them periodically.

  • When possible remove items such as papers, computers, furniture etc. from the area. Large items that cannot be moved should be covered in plastic. A plastic trash bag cut open or even a shower curtain will work.

  • If you notice your ceiling starting to bubble, take a sharp item (screw driver or even a pencil will work) and poke a hole into it to release the water, this will prevent the ceiling from becoming worse or even falling.
The final step is to take a deep breath and relax. You have contacted a 34-year-old business with experience and integrity, we will stop the leak.

Wedge Roofing's dedicated repair and maintenance division, established in 1997, has performed an average of 1000 roof repairs a year. That adds up to thousands of successful roof repairs over more than a decade-- We know leaks.
