What exactly is modified bitumen?
Modified bitumen roofing gets its name from the fact that the base material is bitumen and ‘modifiers’ are added to it. Standard roofing asphalt is made stronger and more durable by way of these modifiers which might include polyester-based fibers or fiberglass. Inexpensive, durable, and versatile, modified bitumen is the first choice of many of our commercial roofing clients
Benefits of Modified Bitumen Roofs
There are many benefits to choosing this type of commercial roof system. These are some of the main drawcards:
Cost effective
The simplicity of modified bitumen installation, the availability of the main components, and the fact that it requires relatively little upkeep makes this roof system an economical winner. This is why it’s a favorite for commercial properties considering the large surface area required and value for money achieved.
Long-lasting and reliable
A new roofing system is a considerable investment, so it makes sense to choose a system that will likely last you for decades. Modified bitumen can withstand the harshest weather conditions, and when the time for repairs come, they are not complicated or expensive to implement either.
Versatile and adaptable
This roofing system is exceptionally versatile. It can be applied to almost all roofs with minimal difficulty.
Durable and resilient
One of the most significant costs of a roofing system isn’t billed when you buy it. Instead, costs can go up months or years later if the roof begins to sustain damage. Business owners who are thinking ahead want a roof that is durable and resilient, and modified bitumen certainly delivers.
