The flat roof sanitation develops a little bit differently, than the sanitation of a sloping roof.
A flat roof is stronger delivered on account of the construction as a rule to the effects of the weather, than a sloping roof. On a flat roof, for example, the rainwater stops much longer and the prevailing outside temperatures affect much stronger the surface layer of the roof. If a flat roof about the years at some places becomes leaking, the layman mends not seldom only these places instead of carrying out a complete roof sanitation. With this approach the annoyance is preprogrammed mostly, then a flat roof at some places shows undensity which is mended temporarily, it is only one matter of time, until also other leaking places appear.
Hence, it is to be advised with a leaking flat roof basically to redevelop the roof completely and not only to mend the leaking places. Nowadays very advanced materials are available for the sanitation of a flat roof. Beside the roof covering materials for flat roofs, as for example steel metal, copper or aluminium also different, very modern plastics are found for the flat roof sealing. Some manufacturers this specially for the roof coating to developed plastics guarantee a density stopping up to 30 years of the coating.
In most cases the surface is released with a flat roof sanitation in the first working step from contaminations and is sealed in the next step the leaking places with a sealing foam. Then the expert brings a priming on the roof surface. According to design and subsoil of the flat roof very different priming materials are used for this. As the last working step the expert raises the cap layer. The application of this cap layer is carried out as a rule 2-3 sometimes to receive 100% thick Abdeckschicht for the flat roof.
