How To Clean Your GRP Roof
Ensure your roof or gutter is structurally stable and that you’re safe at all times. Do a thorough clean and your roof repair can be 100% weatherproof in the long run. You can pressure wash your fibreglass roof. Ensure you clean well beyond the hole and affected area. You should be left with an area free of dirt and grime.

Every kit is equipped with the powerful biocide. Mix 1 part Biocide to 2 parts water. Now moss and spores won’t develop under the repairs and you can stop leaks for longer.

 

How To Prime Your GRP Roof
Most porous surfaces need priming to allow proper adhesion and long term weatherproofing. This kit comes with a UV curing resin that will dry when exposed to sunlight, making it clean and easy to use. Wait for the surface to dry after your thorough clean, and then paint the primer onto the damaged area. Completely cover the hole and the surrounding area with a generous amount of primer. Wait for this to dry before applying the SpeedPatch. Drying/curing time will depend on the day’s brightness, or you can use a UV light to speed up the cure.

 

How To Waterproof Your Fibreglass Roof
SpeedPatches are UV cured, so exposure to the daylight will begin to turn them rigid. With this in mind, it’s best to handle the patch carefully, keeping it as much in the shade as possible (even if the only shade that day is from you). Cut open the clear plastic bag and remove the black bag, then cut the patch to size. It’s to cover well beyond the hole for added durability. Take the patch out of the black bag and remove the white release paper. Apply the patch to the surface.

Apply pressure where it’s safe to do so and ensure that all areas are properly adhered to your roof. Continue applying pressure, particularly around the edges of the patch.

Bigger holes and severely chipped sheets can also be suitable for repair, although you must ensure that the SpeedPatch covers over the entirety of the damage with plenty of the surface around the hole also covered by the SpeedPatch.

1) Do I need any extra tools or experience to apply it?
No. This is a complete DIY kit. You’ll get everything you need to stop the leak. The only extras you’ll need is a bucket to mix the A-Clean and water together, and a soft brush for the cleaning. This can be a standard dustpan style brush, so long as the bristles are soft.

2) Why should I get a kit?
All of the products in the kit have been carefully selected. They’re generally more durable, longer lasting and easier to apply than what you’ll find at the local hardware store. Roofing contractors have been using these materials for years, and they’re now available to you. It’s also more cost effective to order a kit than to buy the items separately.

3) How long will the repair last?
You should expect 5-10 years, but it could be much longer, or shorter if it gets damaged. There’s no clear cut answer for this as it’ll depend on the roof conditions and future weathering. What we can say is that the butyl tapes can easily outlast many other solutions.

4) Is asbestos safe to repair?
Yes, so long as you follow HSE guidelines. Keep yourself safe at all times.

5) Why use a SpeedPatch to cover holes?
Unlike tapes or matting, a SpeedPatch is a tough barrier that’s made from GRP laminate. This is easy to cut to size and shape around roof contours. The SpeedPatch cures when exposed to sunlight and forms a strong rigid barrier over holes. Combine this with the UV Curing primer and you’ve got a watertight seal that will go on year after year.
