Tar or Torch Down Roofing
Torch Down Roofing got its name from the installation process which done by torching the sheets in the overlap area. Is like a large rubber sheet that’s actually vulcanized onto a fiberglass base sheet. Highly recommended for most flat roofs, torch down roofing is similar to the tar and gravel roof. This roof adds layers of polyester or fiberglass with bitumen to the standard tar and gravel layering system. These additional layers add strength and resistance to this type of roof.
Today torch down roofing installation is a very popular way of
getting your roof done in almost every part of the world. Torch down roofing
installation is an excellent way for those houses or structures that have either
a flat roof. It also works well with roofs that have less that 1 degree slopes.
It is far better that conventional method which involves hot tar roofing and
then topping it off with gravel.
However for regions experiencing heavy rainfall or snowfall, torch down roofing
is not a good choice. This is because the arrangement of a flat roof with
overlapping roofing material strips can not stand much heavy rain or snow fall.
You can opt for other conventional methods if you live in such a place. Thus
torch down roofing installation, if done with proper care and under correct
situation is an excellent way for protection of a flat or low sloped rooftop.
