How We Work

Survey First. Then A Straight Answer.

Every Roof King project is quoted off a third-party moisture survey and an engineering report. If the roof needs replacing, the report says replacing — and so do we.

How It Works

Four Steps To A New Roof

01

Free Assessment

We inspect your roof — drone, satellite, and on-site — and document its true condition at no cost.

02

Custom Scope & ROI

You get a clear scope, warranty options, and a side-by-side of restoration vs. replacement with the numbers.

03

Restoration

Our crew preps, sprays foam, and applies silicone — sealing your roof with minimal disruption to tenants.

04

Warranty & Care

You're covered by a manufacturer-backed warranty, plus optional maintenance to keep it renewable for life.

01 — Third-Party Moisture Survey

Before anyone quotes anything, an independent firm scans the roof and maps what is wet. Infrared, nuclear or capacitance depending on the assembly and the deck.

This matters because water travels sideways under a membrane. The stain on the ceiling tile is almost never under the breach. Without a survey, a contractor is guessing — and you are paying for the guess.

The survey is third-party on purpose. The company that tells you how much of your roof is wet should not be the company that gets paid more the wetter it is.

02 — Engineering Report

The survey data goes into an engineering report covering deck condition, existing assembly, saturation percentage, and structural considerations.

This is the document that answers the only question that matters: restore or replace. As a rule of thumb, once saturation passes roughly a quarter of the roof area, restoration stops making economic sense and we will tell you so.

The report is yours. You keep it whether you hire us or not — including if it says to hire somebody else.

03 — Specification & Proposal

We write a specification for your deck, your exposure and your county's approval path — HVHZ in Broward and Miami-Dade, Miami-Dade NOA where required, standard Florida Building Code elsewhere.

The proposal states the system, the mil thickness, the manufacturer, the warranty term and what is excluded. Wet areas identified in the survey are called out as separate line items for cut-out and replacement, so nothing is buried.

If the roof needs a tear-off, the proposal says tear-off.

04 — Preparation

The roof is cleaned — typically pressure washed — and left to dry. Saturated insulation identified in the survey is cut out and replaced with dry material.

Penetrations, curbs, drains, edge metal and any failed flashing are addressed before a drop of coating goes down. Most restoration failures trace back to detail work skipped at this stage.

05 — Spray Foam Application

Closed-cell polyurethane foam is sprayed across the deck, fully adhered, seamless, with no fasteners and no laps. Thickness is varied deliberately to build slope into low areas so the roof drains instead of ponding.

Foam is applied with our own Graco Reactor, King and Dura-Max rigs by the crew that has run them together for twenty years. Weather windows matter — temperature, humidity and wind all govern whether foam can go down that day, and we would rather lose a day than spray in the wrong conditions.

06 — Silicone Topcoat

A high-solids silicone topcoat is applied over the foam at the specified mil thickness, usually in two passes with granules broadcast into the final coat where walkability or hail resistance calls for it.

Silicone is chosen for three reasons: it is UV-stable, it tolerates ponding water without breaking down, and it can be recoated indefinitely. That last one is the whole point — the roof renews rather than getting replaced.

07 — Inspection & Warranty

Mil thickness is verified, the manufacturer inspects where the warranty requires it, and the warranty is issued in your name.

You receive the survey, the report, the specification, the material data and the warranty as one package — the documentation a board or an asset manager needs on file.

08 — Maintenance & Recoat

Inspections twice a year and after major storms. Small issues get caught while they are still small and still cheap.

At roughly ten to fifteen years the silicone gets a fresh coat, and the clock resets. Do that on schedule and the roof does not need replacing — which is why the oldest SPF roofs still in service are over fifty years old.
