What is Built-Up Roofing?

Built-Up Roofing (BUR) is a multi-layered roofing system that consists of alternating layers of bitumen (asphalt or coal tar) and reinforcing fabrics (typically fiberglass or organic materials) topped with a layer of gravel or mineral surfacing. These layers are built up to create a waterproof and durable roofing membrane that can withstand the rigors of the environment and provide long-lasting protection for your building.

Benefits of Built-Up Roofing

  • Proven Durability

    Built-Up Roofing has a long track record of durability and performance, making it a reliable choice for commercial properties.

  • Waterproofing

    The multiple layers of bitumen and reinforcing fabrics create a seamless and waterproof membrane that effectively protects your building from water infiltration.

  • Fire Resistance

    Built-Up Roofing systems are inherently fire-resistant, providing an added layer of safety and protection for your property.

  • UV Protection

    The top layer of gravel or mineral surfacing provides UV protection and helps extend the lifespan of the roofing system by reducing heat absorption and minimizing thermal expansion and contraction.

  • Low Maintenance

    Built-Up Roofing requires minimal maintenance and is easy to repair if damage occurs, making it a cost-effective roofing solution over the long term.
