Modified Bitumen Roofing

Rubberized asphalt protection with proven flexibility

Strong Contractors installs, replaces and repairs modified bitumen roofing systems for commercial, industrial and institutional facilities. Modified bitumen is an asphalt-based membrane reinforced with polymers to improve flexibility, strength and weather resistance. It is commonly selected for complex roof layouts, smaller roof areas, frequent maintenance traffic and conditions requiring a durable, flexible membrane system.

Common Applications:

  • Commercial and Institutional Buildings
  • Schools and Municipal Facilities
  • Healthcare Facilities
  • Industrial Buildings
  • Roofs with Complex Penetrations and Transitions
  • High-Traffic Maintenance Areas
  • Smaller or Irregular Low-Slope Roofs
  • Repair, Replacement and Phased Reroofing Projects
Strong Contractors' Approach to Modified Bitumen Roofing

Matched to the Membrane, Application Method and Roof Geometry

Modified bitumen systems may use different membrane formulations, attachment methods and surfacing options. Strong coordinates the substrate, base sheet, membrane, application method, laps, flashings and protective finish around the roof configuration and project conditions.

  • Understand the Roof Conditions
    We evaluate substrate compatibility, drainage, penetrations, maintenance traffic and application constraints.
  • Select the Appropriate Application
    Torch, hot asphalt, cold adhesive, self-adhered or mechanically attached methods are matched to the specified membrane and site conditions.
  • Control Bonding and Laps
    Membrane alignment, adhesion, side laps and end laps are managed to maintain continuous coverage.
  • Reinforce Complex Details
    Corners, penetrations, curbs, transitions and changes in plane receive focused reinforcement and detailing.
