Built-up Roofing Systems

A built-up roofing system consists of multiple plies of roof felts that are laminated together with bitumen. Built-up roof material can consist of bitumen-saturated felt, coated felt, or polyester felt of other fabrics. A surfacing is generally applied and can be asphalt, aggregate (gravel or slag), emulsion or a granule-surfaced cap sheet. There are two basic types of Built-up roofs: Asphalt and Coal tar. There are three basic components of built-up roofs: waterproofing, reinforcing and surfacing.

Cold Applied

Cold process built-up roofing systems use coated or uncoated polyester reinforcements, or composite (polyester/fiberglass) reinforcements, in conjunction with either solvent-borne or waterborne adhesives. Cold process built-up roofing systems are available as complete systems or as repair system for new construction or re-roofing, and they are available in a variety of constructions to meet all budgets.

Torch Applied (Only Available on Non-combustible Decks)

Torch down roofing is a type of roofing material that has been designed for low-angle or flat roofs. The product gets its name from the method of application used to install and adhere it to a building’s structure. If installed correctly, torch down roofing can last a very long time. Two-layer systems tend to last around 15 years while three-layer torch down roofing can last 20 years or longer.

Hot Asphalt Applied

The higher the quality of the BUR materials and asphalt used and the greater the number of plies (and separate asphalt moppings), the more superior the roofing system.
