Torch-on Roofing

Premium Waterproofing Membranes for Flat & Low-Slope Roofs

Flat and low-slope roof structures require specialized technical execution to manage pooling water and prevent leaks. Torch-on roofing (or modified bitumen system) represents the industry standard for commercial and modern residential flat extensions. Consisting of heavy-duty, rubberized asphalt membranes thermally fused together, it creates an impenetrable, continuous barrier against severe seasonal elements.

Torch-on Membrane Installation

The security of a flat roof depends heavily on meticulous multi-layer preparation. We begin by securing premium high-density substrate boards over clean roof framing to establish an completely flat surface. Next, a vapor barrier and a thick fiber-reinforced base sheet are mechanically fastened. Finally, our elite certified open-flame specialists precision-weld the thick SBS cap sheet over the base layer, creating seamless waterproof joints.

Particular attention is dedicated to detail areas like structural corners, parapet walls, drains, and roof vents. We reinforce these transitions with extra membrane target layers and liquid flashing sealants to eliminate any vulnerability. By combining premium granular-surfaced cap sheets with precise application, our configurations provide superior UV resistance and exceptional long-term stability.

Our Application Process

Slope & Drainage Review

Substrate Assessment

We detail the slope condition, calculating exact ponding areas and downspout drainage efficiency before recommending optimal thickness specs.

Layer Layout Design

Engineered Layering

Our professionals select the correct combination of insulation, cover boards, and SBS modified bitumen layers to suit your building's structural footprint.

Thermal Fusion Welding

Precision Torch Welding

Licensed safety-certified technicians apply targeted thermal heat to fuse the overlapping membrane edges, creating an airtight, watertight bond.

Seam Quality Audits

Seam Inspection

Every single line and seam intersection is mechanically tested to confirm complete thermal bonding. We then clear the entire worksite cleanly.

Torch-on Membrane Installation

Substandard flat roof work leads to major insulation rot and internal ceiling damage very quickly. Investing in a professionally installed 2-ply torch-on system shields your building from severe downpours and heavy winter snow loads, keeping commercial assets or residential interiors safe and dry all year round.
