For facility managers and property owners across California, maintaining a durable, energy-efficient roof is a critical investment. Spray polyurethane foam (SPF) roofing provides long-term protection, waterproofing, and energy savings for commercial, industrial, educational, and state-owned buildings. Unlike traditional roofing, SPF expands to seal gaps and cracks, forming a seamless, waterproof surface that can last decades with proper maintenance.

Airport Roof Upgrade: SPF Roofing in Action

Universal Coatings upgraded a 31,000 sq. ft. airport roof, replacing 34 skylights with OSHA-compliant models for the USDA Forest Service Building at the Redding Airport. The SPF roofing system met Class A fire rating and R-13 insulation requirements. Three crews worked simultaneously to remove the old roof and install the new system safely within an active airport environment, completing the project in just five weeks.

Why Spray Foam Roofing is a Smart Investment

  • Extended Roof Lifespan: SPF roofs are designed to last 20 years or more, and with periodic recoating, they can exceed 40 years. This long-term durability reduces the frequency and cost of major roof replacements.
  • Energy Efficiency: SPF creates an airtight, reflective layer that minimizes heat transfer, helping reduce HVAC energy consumption and costs.
  • Low Maintenance: Routine inspections and maintenance are simple compared to traditional roofing systems, saving both time and money.
  • Waterproof & Weather Resistant: SPF provides superior protection against leaks, ponding water, and weather-related wear, reducing repair costs over time.
  • Eco-Friendly & Sustainable: Reflective coatings reduce urban heat exposure and contribute to a smaller carbon footprint, making SPF roofing a sustainable choice.
