Modified bitumen roof coating extends the life of the torch-down and cold-process roofs you see on so many strip centers and small commercial buildings in Norris, MT. Mod bit fails slowly. Granules wash off, the asphalt underneath dries out in the sun, and cracks start at the laps.
Asphalt roofs have one quirk that trips up a lot of coating jobs: bleed-through. Oils in the asphalt can migrate up and stain a white top coat brown. We use a bleed-blocking base coat on mod bit to stop that, and it is a step we do not skip.
Before coating, our crew cuts out any blisters, re-adheres open laps, and repairs splits with fabric and mastic. Loose granules get blown off. Then the base coat, then the top coat, built to the thickness the manufacturer specs.
A modified bitumen roof coating in Norris, MT changes a dark roof into a reflective one and gives the old membrane a new UV shield. If the roof has many blisters or wet insulation, we will tell you, and in that case a coating is not the right fix. For water that sits on the roof, see ponding water repair. Call (833) 441-4944.
