FOAM ROOF

ONE OF THE PROJECTS ON “THE MOUNTAIN” PARK MODEL IS A NEW ROOF.  IN AUGUST WHILE WE THERE WE HIRED A COMPANY TO PUT  A NEW FOAM ROOF ON THE WHOLE THING INCLUDING THE METAL ROOF ABOVE THE PORCH. WE DIDN’T CARE WHEN THE WORK WAS DONE AS LONG AS IT WAS COMPLETED BY THE END OF THIS SEASON.

THE FOAM ROOF IS APPLIED RIGHT OVER THE EXSISTING SHINGLES.

THE FOAM ADDS SOME INSULATION, KEEPING THE TRAILER COOLER IN THE SUMMER, INCLUDING THE PORCH THAT GETS A LITTLE WARM IN THE AFTERNOON.

AFTER THE FOAM IS APPLIED A WHITE SEALER IS APPLIED TO FRUTHER RESIST THE HEAT OF THE SUN.
