Expert roof waterproofing in Wilkes-Barre, PA. Licensed spray foam contractors with manufacturer-backed warranties and free inspections.
Ponding water destroys conventional roof waterproofing because standing water attacks seams and coating adhesion. Our SPF-based waterproofing systems in Wilkes-Barre are engineered to handle indefinite ponding — the silicone topcoat does not re-emulsify, soften, or deteriorate in standing water.
When Wilkes-Barre, PA property owners need roof waterproofing, they turn to Lapolla Industries for the same reason thousands of customers nationwide do: we solve the root problem, not just the symptom. Our diagnostic approach uses infrared scanning, moisture mapping, and visual inspection to ensure the solution we recommend is the one your building actually needs.
With over two decades of spray foam experience, our Wilkes-Barre crews have seen every roof waterproofing scenario Pennsylvania weather can create. We use that experience to select the right foam type, coating system, and application method for your specific property — delivering roof waterproofing results that hold up to Wilkes-Barre conditions year after year.
From inspection to completion, here is how we deliver professional roof waterproofing results.
Our assessment process goes beyond a visual check. We examine substrate conditions, drainage patterns, existing insulation performance, and structural integrity. This data-driven approach ensures we recommend the right spray foam solution for your specific property.
Proper surface preparation is critical for spray foam adhesion and long-term performance. Our crews clean, dry, and prime all surfaces, remove debris and loose material, and ensure the substrate meets manufacturer specifications before any foam is applied.
Application is performed by certified spray foam technicians using the latest proportioning equipment. We monitor foam temperature, pressure, and ratio throughout application to ensure every square foot meets manufacturer performance specifications.
The final step is applying a protective topcoat that shields the SPF from UV exposure and provides the weather surface. We select the coating type based on your roof slope, ponding conditions, and desired service life. After coating, we clean up completely and review the finished project with you.

Our reputation is built on results. Here is what our customers have to say.
"Scheduled a roof inspection before purchasing a commercial property. Their report was incredibly detailed — infrared moisture scans, core samples, photos of every deficiency. It saved us from buying a building with a failing roof."
"We needed our concrete roof deck waterproofed before installing new equipment on it. The crew applied a monolithic membrane that handles foot traffic and ponding water. Two years in and zero issues. Money well spent."
"Our metal warehouse roof had been leaking at the ridge and sidewall transitions for years. The coating crew sealed every penetration, fastener, and seam. Completely watertight now and the energy savings are a great bonus."
