BUILT-UP COMMERCIAL ROOFING
Built-Up roofing systems are one of the most durable and reliable roofing systems in use today.
BUILT-UP ROOF CONSTRUCTION
Built-Up roofing is constructed with waterproofing, reinforcing and finally a top surfacing component. This highly waterproof membrane is constructed with layers of bitumen, alternating with layers reinforced polyester felt or fiberglass. The final built-up product makes an incredibility durable roofing system, able to resist even the severest weather conditions.
BENIFITS
- Excellent waterproofing protection.
- Exceptional wind and weather resistance.
- Built-up roofing provides increased thermal insulation.
- Often more durable, and less maintenance than other roofing systems.
- The gravel top surface (which is raked into the still hot asphalt coat during construction) resists UV radiation damage, as well as helps to improve water evaporation.
