Asphalt Roofing

Modified Bitumen roofs are systems that are most often roll-applied to the roof surface. They are similar to asphalt roofs but they have additional polymers in their materials that provide added protection from the elements and help in increasing the lifespan of the product. Modified Bitumen Roofing Systems are commonplace and have a good reputation. Many times, Modified Bitumen roofs are installed by rolling out the roofing material after it has been heated with a blow torch. The heating process allows the material to adhere to the roof surface.
