Spray foam being applied over granulated mod-bit and up parapet wall at Granger Lakes

Granger Lakes Condos – Spray Foam Over Granulated Mod-Bit Roofing

Greg PalyaOther

Introduction

In 2023, West Roofing Systems completed a full roof restoration across 10 condominium units at Granger Lakes in Northeast Ohio. We applied spray foam over granulated mod-bit roofing, replaced parapet wall shingles, and added a matching silicone coating — all with a 10-year full-system renewable warranty.

Project Details & Challenges

  • Total size: 47,680 sq ft across 10 condos, 20 owners.
  • Each roof had a shingle-shake parapet wall. The shingles were removed.
  • Existing roofs had ponding water issues.
  • Need for uniform appearance across multiple units (matching with shingles color, etc.).

Our Solution

  • Installed an average of 1.25″ spray polyurethane foam (SPF) over the granulated mod-bit.
  • Foam extended up and over parapet walls, continuing seamlessly onto adjoining roof sections.
  • Removed shingle-shake parapet walls and replaced with foam and new finished coating.
  • Applied a custom shade of brown silicone coating on parapet walls to match adjacent shingle surfaces.
  • Eliminated the need for a tapered system by using foam to level surfaces and improve drainage.

Warranty & Protection

  • Each condo received a 10-year full-system renewable warranty covering the roof system.

Results & Benefits

  • Improved thermal performance: ~R-8 added to existing insulation levels.
  • Ponding issues were resolved without installing a costly tapered roof structure.
  • Consistent aesthetics: Parapet walls match the shingles with a custom color coating.
  • A long-term guarantee gives owners peace of mind.
  • Good cost-effectiveness: projected payback of 7-8 years.
