Hi there,
Take a look at this picture of a typical flat roof.
This photo perfectly illustrates the three major problems that flat roofs face.
Problem #1 - Flat roofs are made from hundreds of individual pieces
See the lines running along the roof? Those lines represent seams, where two pieces of material have been glued or fastened together. A typical flat roof has hundreds of seams.
The problem is these are the "weak links." Seams ALWAYS fail first.
If your flat roof has seams, it’s not a matter of IF, but WHEN you'll get a leak.
Problem #2 - Ponding water
If water doesn't drain off your roof when it rains, you get pools of water that sit on your roof. Most flat roofs don't drain water perfectly, so the water just sits there.
When it pools like this, it only has two places to go. It can go either go UP by evaporating, or it can go DOWN by leaking.
If water sits on flat roofs for more than 48 hours, it starts to dissolve the membrane and weaken the seams. This is how many leaks start.
Problem #3 - UV degradation
See how the roof above is faded and discolored? That’s from UV degradation.
UV rays are especially harsh on flat roofs. After years of harmful UV exposure, the membrane is no longer watertight. This is one of the major reasons flat roofs have to be replaced every 10-15 years.
Here’s what NOT to do...
When your flat roof fails, don’t start patching it and chasing leaks. Also, don’t rip out the whole roof and replace it. These are not the smartest choices and they’re not permanent solutions.
The EverSeal System solves all 3 failure points in a much smarter and more elegant way.
#1. It's 100% seamless
You don't have to worry about another "weak link" or another seam breaking down causing water to leak into your building or home.
#2. It's impermeable to water
You don't have to worry about ponding water again. The system’s molecular structure is so tight, water molecules are too large to enter or dissolve the material. Water slips right off.
#3. It's 100% UV stable
You don't need to worry about UV rays weakening or degrading the roof. The patented properties used in the EverSeal System are virtually immune from breaking down, deteriorating, or degrading.
This means you don't have to replace your roof.
It also means your roof won’t thin, crack or break down like a traditional roofing system.
In other words, in 50 years your new EverSeal roof will carry the exact same physical properties as the day we first applied it. Guaranteed.
So YOU can get back to what matters.

The Team at EverSeal
