Modified bitumen, or mod-bit, is an asphalt-based flat roof material that is modified with special polymers to increase pliability and performance. It’s manufactured into rolls that consist of a smooth or granulated surfacing finish and can be hot-applied, cold-applied, or self-adhered.
Mod-bit systems are generally more cost-effective than other conventional roofing materials and can last anywhere from 15 to 20 years. They are also a fairly durable and energy-efficient roofing solution capable of enduring extreme temperature variations and diminishing the flow of heat on roof surfaces.
The primary drawback of a modified bitumen roof is its relatively short lifespan. It can also be difficult to identify the source of a leak on this particular roofing substrate.
Built-up roofs (BUR) have been around for a long time—over 100 years in fact. They are the most common type of material used in commercial and industrial flat roof systems. Built-up roofs are comprised of several alternating layers of bitumen (asphalt) and reinforcing fabrics (ply sheets) and finished with a top layer of aggregate, such as gravel, slag, or mineral granules.
Most built-up roof constructions have a lifespan of 15-30 years. They typically require little maintenance and provide excellent UV and waterproofing protection. The aggregate top layer of a built-up system is also fire-resistant and aesthetically pleasing.
Compared to other flat roof systems, built-up roofs are more expensive and take longer to install. They are also more susceptible to water and wind damage.
