Restoring BUR Systems (Built-up Roofing) can be an option that may increase longevity and prevent the cost of a total reroof. 

Corona Foothills Middle School and Sycamore Elementary first opened in 2003 and located in the great town of Corona de Tucson.  Both schools are located on the same campus and originally had a BUR system installed. Over the past 18 years, the Arizona sun has caused the asphalt-based system to deteriorate.  The school system needed a cost-effective option to increase the lifespan of the roofing system without a full replacement. Classic Roofing of Arizona was given the opportunity to provide a cost-effective roofing restoring option to the school.  

 

Both schools combined have a total 125,000 square foot roofing area to be restored. Classic Roofing utilized Everest Systems for this application.  There was a need for an industry-leading high-tensile elastomeric coating that also provided maximum UV protection.  The product selected was Evercoat HT-QS with a 20-year NDL (No Dollar Limit) warranty.  The project was completed recently in May 2021, with no issues and on time.
