Grp Roofing In The Rain
The most common noise issues with flat roofs are banging loud rain snapping popping sounds heat related cracking and creaking.
Grp roofing in the rain. As a company we offer a fibreglass roofing kit. The fibreglass roofing kit is used on flat roofs. It started raining during the install. When a roof heats up and cools down during the course of a day it will make noise this is due to thermal expansion and contraction and is a completely normal process.
Good news is that they did a section at a time so the osb was exposed to fairly light rain drizzle for about a half hour before peel and stick membrane was installed. While no roof is sound proof there are certain repairs and replacements that can be done to reduce the sound of rain or hail and the banging noises that many unfortunate home owners do experience from time to time. The kit comes with a wall fillet that is fitted on the roof. If a flexible grp roofing system like fibrelast was used then the entire system will flex.
The grp roofing topcoat is still sticky or tacky to the touch. Heavy rain on a partially cured roof will inhibit the cure and turn the resin white which means stripping back and starting again so always have a polythene cover on site and quickly accessible so you can throw over the entire roof. Fibreglass is also referred to as grp glass reinforced plastic. Should it rain while the resins or topcoats are liquid this is a difficult position to be in stop work and cover what you have done immediately.
The polythene cover will protect the resin.
