(prHWY.com) March 18, 2013 - Pasco, WA -- Pasco, Washington (February 11, 2013) - Royal Roofing & Siding Inc., a reliable provider of roof repair services, is offering the professional installation of "torch down" roofs for commercial properties, among other types made with asphalt. A common option for buildings with flat tops, this system is implemented by the company through a sealing process that offers protection for up to 15 years.
Royal's torch down roofs are manufactured by combining sheets of fiberglass and polyester with bitumen, or asphalt, which are then added to a layering system composed of tar and gravel. The added sheets are meticulously torched down with an open flame, melting the asphalt at the seams. This process seals all the materials together and provides a high level of protection and durability.
The company also offers built-up and modified bitumen systems. This durable material is commonly used in large structures such as warehouses and apartment complexes.
Built-up roofing is one of the oldest asphalt systems as well as the one proven to be most durable. This is composed of several layers of roofing felts that feature asphalt or bitumen in between them. It is especially recommended for large buildings in areas with extreme weather conditions, as it is able to withstand wind, hail, and snow. It is also fairly easy to maintain and repair.
Modified bitumen, on the other hand, involves engineered waterproofing materials that make use of asphalt-based bitumen and advanced polymer. These modified bitumen membranes are attached to the substrate through heat fusing or by hot asphalt or cold-applied adhesives. This solution offers both the reliability of traditional asphalt systems and the benefits of new materials such as plastic and fiberglass.
