Built Up Roofing
A built up roofing membrane is comprised of hot asphalt
or coal tar pitch and incorporates organic or various
man made reinforced felts. The built up roof membrane
may be surfaced with aggregate or in some cases an asphalt
membrane may be allowed to be left smooth with a liquid
applied top coating. Modified membranes are often considered
a part of the built up roofing category as they can
be incorporated into a built up roofing system or used
independently, providing their own unique roofing system.

fastening or fully adhering to a number of different
