Built-up roofing systems, commonly known as BUR, consist of multiple layers of bitumen (asphalt or tar) alternated with reinforcing fabrics. These layers are finished with a protective top layer of gravel or a reflective coating. This construction creates a durable, watertight membrane ideal for flat or low-slope roofs. BUR systems are well-known for their long lifespan and proven reliability.
When it comes to time-tested durability and exceptional waterproofing for commercial buildings, built-up roofing (BUR) systems remain a popular choice. We provide expert installation, repair, and maintenance of built-up roofing systems designed to withstand Florida’s harsh climate and protect your property for decades.
Built-up roofing systems (BUR) offer numerous advantages, making them a trusted choice for commercial and industrial buildings. Known for their durability, these roofs feature multiple layers of bitumen and reinforcing fabrics, providing exceptional resistance to weather, heavy foot traffic, and mechanical damage. The seamless, layered design ensures superior waterproofing, effectively preventing leaks and protecting the structure beneath. BUR systems are also highly resistant to UV rays and heat, especially when finished with a gravel or reflective top layer, which helps reduce cooling costs in hot climates like Florida. With minimal maintenance requirements and a lifespan that can exceed 20 to 30 years, built-up roofing delivers a reliable and cost-effective solution for long-term roof performance.
