Flat roof coating in Kew Gardens, Queens is character-conscious work for Queens Flat Roof Coating, in a leafy neighborhood of pre-war co-ops and garden apartments. The planned buildings here carry broad flat roofs that have weathered nearly a century of seasons. We restore them with seamless fluid-applied membranes that seal the seams and add years of waterproof life without a tear-off. Kew Gardens owners and co-op boards call us when an aging roof needs renewing without the cost and disruption of a replacement.
Kew Gardens is one of Queens' original planned garden communities, a leafy neighborhood of pre-war apartment and co-op buildings and Tudor homes laid out around winding streets near Forest Park. Its low-slope roofing work centers on the co-op and garden-apartment buildings, which carry broad flat roofs of built-up asphalt and modified bitumen aged past their prime. That stock of large pre-war co-op flat roofs makes seamless coating and restoration common work here.
The co-op and garden-apartment buildings here carry expansive flat roofs that are costly to replace and slow to tear off. We restore them by cleaning the membrane, reinforcing the seams and penetrations, and coating the full field with a seamless waterproof system. The building stays occupied while the roof is renewed above.
The gently sloped roofs on these buildings drain slowly, and water pools in the low areas after a storm. Silicone coating is built to sit under standing water without failing, so it holds its seal where other systems break down. We build it up over the low spots to keep ponding water out of the roof.
Coating a co-op here means no tear-off, no debris chutes, and no disruption to the grounds below. We apply the seamless membrane from the roof, keep the site tidy, and leave the building and its surroundings untouched. It is the least invasive way to bring an aging roof back to full waterproof life.
