WHAT IS TORCH-ON ROOFING?
Torch-on roofing is a unique process that helps ensure the best seal and waterproof finish in flat and low-sloped roofs. This process makes use of an open-flame propane torch to seal your roof against the elements. The process uses an asphalt compound called bitumen as roofing material to seal the roof. The bitumen is modified by adding rubber or plastic to increase its strength and hence is often referred to as modified bitumen. The rubber in bitumen enables it to expand and contract without causing cracks on melting.
To make the material effective, it is heated to the point that it melts. The melted material offers high tolerance to heat, cold, and moisture. Torch-on roofing is a time-tested method to make your roof water and weather resistant. We also offer two-layer roofing and three-layer roofing for extra protection.
Flat roofs are likely to hold water from rain and snow for longer than sloped roofs, so there are chances of damage. In such cases, torch-on roofing offers the protection your roof needs.

The torch-on roofing process is completed by the application of a smooth cap sheet. This cap sheet has multiple benefits, such as increasing the energy efficiency of the building, offering resistance against ultraviolet rays, keeping the building cool, and increasing the life expectancy of your roof.
Besides making your roof waterproof, torch-on roofing provides protection across all seasons. We recommend torch-on roofing systems for flat roofing systems also including slightly pitched roofs, between ¼: 12 to 1: 12 pitch, because the number one enemy of a flat roof is pooling water. Torch-on roofing stands out because it has many important benefits other than energy efficiency, such as:
