Modified Bitumen Roof Systems

Modified bitumen systems combine the redundancy of a traditional asphalt roof with the performance benefits of a polymer-modified membrane. The result is a low-slope assembly that handles chemical exposure, impact, and the dramatic thermal cycling you see on the Western Slope exceptionally well — which keeps it a popular choice for small commercial and industrial buildings in Glenwood Springs, Carbondale, and Rifle.

Rocky Mountain Gutters & Maintenance installs both SBS (rubberized) and APP (plasticized) modified systems, applied with torch, hot mop, or cold-process methods depending on the building and code requirements.
