Call 615-278-6600 today to schedule your consultation and find out if BUR is the right fit for your facility.

Reliable Results with Proven Methods

Built-up roofing consists of alternating layers of bitumen and reinforcing felts, finished with a protective cap layer—typically gravel or a smooth, reflective surface. This layered system creates a thick, waterproof membrane that resists water intrusion, UV degradation, and everyday wear. It’s particularly effective for flat and low-slope roofs where standing water and sun exposure can take a toll over time. We tailor every built-up roofing project to the structure’s specific needs, factoring in use, drainage, insulation, and energy efficiency goals.

  • New BUR installation for commercial and industrial buildings
  • Application options including hot asphalt and cold-applied systems
  • Reflective or gravel-surfaced finishes for added durability and performance
  • Flashing, edge detail, and drainage upgrades
