Water-resistant Modified Bitumen Flat Roofing for Long-lasting Protection
What Is Modified Bitumen Roofing?
Bitumen is a sticky petroleum residue that consists mostly of hydrocarbons. Its stickiness makes it particularly valuable as a binding material.
On roofs, modified bitumen (sometimes called ModBit) contains additives, such as polymers, that make it water resistant. A roof of modified bitumen has a life expectancy of 20 years. It is also fire resistant, holding up well under extreme temperatures.
The Advantages of Modified Bitumen Roofing for Commercial Roofs
The fire resistance of modified bitumen roofing is an asset against wildfires, a growing concern in some areas of Minnesota. Compared to wooden shingles, bitumen roofing is unlikely to catch alight when exposed to embers and flaming debris.
Modified bitumen is also a great choice for commercial roofs that need to keep water out, such as:
- Flat roofing systems prone to collecting snow and ice in the winter
- A roof protecting electrical equipment that would sustain irreparable damage from leaks
- A roof over agricultural products or livestock
- A building in an area with heavy rainfall and humidity
ModBit roofing material is perfect for many of the agricultural buildings in the Minnesota communities we serve. Could bitumen offer you the superior roofing solution? Feel free to give us a call if you have any questions about modified bitumen and other quality roofing materials.
