Our team of experienced Canadian roofing contractors has years of expertise in installing and maintaining torch roofing, and we can confidently say that it is one of the most durable and long-lasting roofing systems available today.
Torch Roofing is a method primarily used on flat and low-slope roofs, and it involves applying modified bitumen membranes using an open-flame propane torch. The durability of torch roofing stems from the materials used and the way they are applied. Modified bitumen is a specially engineered roofing material that combines traditional asphalt with rubber or plastic polymers. This combination enhances flexibility, strength, and weather resistance, allowing the roof to withstand the harshest conditions, from heavy snowfalls and freezing temperatures to strong winds and heavy rainstorms.
One of the key reasons torch roofing is so durable is because it creates a seamless, waterproof barrier. During installation, the modified bitumen membrane is heated, allowing it to adhere tightly to the roof surface. This process eliminates gaps, overlaps, or seams that could allow water to penetrate. Whether you own a detached home, townhouse, semi-detached property, or a large custom-built home, this seamless design significantly reduces the risk of leaks, which is essential for maintaining the structural integrity of your building.
At Barrie Roofing & Repair Services, we understand that durability doesn’t just depend on materials—it also depends on expert installation. Our professional Canadian roofing contractors have extensive experience working with torch roofing, ensuring every installation is completed with precision and attention to detail. Proper installation plays a critical role in ensuring the roofing system’s longevity and ability to withstand environmental stress. With our team’s knowledge and expertise, you can trust that your torch roofing system will deliver reliable performance for years to come.
In addition to weather resistance, torch roofing is also highly durable against physical damage. The reinforced layers within the modified bitumen membrane provide excellent strength, helping the roof resist punctures, tears, and other forms of mechanical damage. This makes torch roofing an ideal choice for buildings that experience occasional foot traffic, such as during maintenance work or inspections. Whether your property is residential or commercial, you can rely on torch roofing to hold up under pressure.
