Modified Bitumen Roofing: The Ultimate Guide
What to expect during Modified Bitumen flat roof Installation
At Tropic Shield Roofing, we prioritize keeping you informed throughout your roof installation process. Here’s what you can expect during your Modified Bitumen Roof installation:
1. Initial Preparation
Our crew thoroughly inspects the roof deck to ensure it is sound. Any damaged or rotted decking is replaced, and the surface is meticulously cleaned and primed.
2. Base Sheet Installation
A durable base sheet is applied to provide waterproofing and stability, ensuring strong bonding with the modified bitumen membrane.
3. Modified Bitumen Application
The roofing membrane is rolled out in precise sections and installed using torch heat, cold adhesive, or self-adhering methods. The seams are carefully sealed to achieve a watertight finish.
4. Detailing and Flashing
Edges, vents, skylights, and HVAC units are reinforced with flashing. Vulnerable areas receive extra membrane layers for enhanced durability.
5. Finishing Touches
Final seals and details are completed to give your roof a clean look.
6. Peace of Mind
Once the installation is complete, you’ll enjoy a long-lasting, energy-efficient, and hurricane-ready roof, all backed by our 10 Year Tropic Shield Leak and Labor Guarantee.
