Necessity is the mother of invention. Who best to invent a machine that scarifies foam roof surfaces than a foam roofing contractor. You got it, in 1984, a frustrated foam roofing contractor decided there had to be a better way to just remove the deteriorated surface of a SPF roof and put some ideas to work in the fabrication shop.
Original Roof Scarfer Made By Roofing Contractor
After a few re-designs and numerous field tests on actual deteriorated foam roofs, the Original Roof Scarfer was patented in 1984. Shortly after that, the Original Roof Scarfer was available for sale to all the other roofing contractors who had the same need and outside of some improvements in materials used to custom fabricate the Original Roof Scarfer.
Original Roof Scarfer has Scarified Millions of Square Feet
The original design is still the most widely accepted roof scarfer on the market. Literally, hundreds of millions of square feet of SPF roofing have been scarified with the original roof scarfer. There have been a few that have developed comparable machines. A couple have even tried to duplicate the Original Roof Scarfer but none have succeeded with providing the most reliable, custom fabricated scarifier produced specifically for the SPF (spray polyurethane foam) roofing industry.
The Original Roof Scarfer is Custom Fabricated and Time Tested
Each piece of The Original Roof Scarfer is custom fabricated according to strict specifications to perform long-term in the SPF (spray polyurethane foam) roofing market. Each piece of the Original Roof Scarfer has been time tested, reinforced to accept the additional torque required to properly scarify the surface and continue to perform for hundreds of thousands of square feet of production. Sure, it would be easier to modify another type of overseas manufactured machine intended for an entirely different market and working conditions, change a few pieces, and call it a roof scarfier, but wouldn’t that be like taking a stock coupe and putting racing tires on it and then calling it a race car. I sure would not want to be that driver!
Make sure you buy the Original Roof Scarfer, made by roofers for roofers, with all custom fabricated USA made parts for its intended use. Don’t regret purchasing a knock-off.
