SPF Foam & Coating
Weather The Storm
If your roof has minor leaks but isn’t ready for a full replacement, roof coatings provide an effective and affordable solution. At Behmer Roofing & Sheet Metal, we offer Acrylic coating which extends the life of your roof and is perfect for preventative maintenance.
For flat roofs with chronic leaks or those nearing the end of their lifespan, we recommend SPF (Spray Polyurethane Foam). This closed-cell foam, applied at one inch thick and coated with acrylic for UV protection, creates a durable, seamless, and waterproof membrane. SPF also provides the highest R-value for superior thermal insulation, making it perfect for Arizona homes. With over 20 years of expertise, we deliver long-lasting roof coatings that you can trust.

Materials
SPF (Spray Polyurethane Foam) requires specialized materials for a seamless, durable application. We apply SPF at one inch thick to create a waterproof membrane, followed by an acrylic coating to shield it from UV rays. We also apply primer and sealants around roof penetrations for extra protection.

Frequently Asked Questions
SPF foam and coatings are a cost-effective alternative to full replacement, especially for roofs that show signs of wear but aren’t yet beyond repair. Applying a coating can extend your roof’s life without the expense of ripping off the entire system.
SPF foam creates a seamless, waterproof surface with no joints or weak spots, helping to reduce the risk of leaks and water intrusion. Its high insulation value (R-value) improves indoor comfort by keeping interiors cooler in Arizona’s scorching summers and warmer during cooler months. The reflective coating applied over the foam helps deflect sunlight, enhancing energy efficiency and lowering cooling costs. Additionally, SPF systems also extend the lifespan of your existing roof by adding a durable, weather-resistant layer. When properly installed and maintained, an SPF roof can last for decades, up to 50 years in ideal conditions.
SPF stands for Spray Polyurethane Foam. It’s applied as a liquid that expands into a seamless foam membrane, typically about one inch thick. After the foam is applied, an acrylic or elastomeric coating is added on top to protect it from UV exposure. This combination forms a durable, waterproof barrier that seals leaks, levels irregular surfaces, and improves insulation.
The SPF foam and coating installation process begins with a detailed roof inspection and preparation, where the Behmer team cleans the surface and repairs any damage. The spray polyurethane foam (SPF) is then applied as a liquid that expands to create a seamless, fully adhered layer. Once cured, an acrylic or elastomeric coating is added to protect the roof from Arizona’s intense UV rays and weather. Finally, Behmer’s specialists seal all penetrations and flashing to ensure long-term durability and watertight performance.
