Southard Fire Company Commercial SBS Modified Bitumen Roof South Jersey
We were called in on an emergency as a Nor’easter had completely ripped the roof from the upper level of the Fire Company roof on about 50% or a 4000 sq. ft built-up roofing system. Temporary cover was done by others. As the afternoon temperatures were around 40 degrees, we had a window in March to install a self adhered Modified Bitumen Roofing System. The very finest we can offer is the Certainteed 3 Ply SBS Mod. Bit. This roofing system affords 6 ply stress point and flashing system, a very formidable application.
First we had to remove the old roof and dispose of debris. Then the rotting substrate had to be repaired.
The Nail Base is of great significance, especially with the high wind speeds of the area.
The SA (Self Adhering) Mid Ply sticks like super glue to the Nail Base.
The Cap Sheet also sticks and all layers seam very well under the 70 lb. roller.
A perimeter of mechanically fastened .032” Aluminum Drip Edging was primed with Asphalt Primer and sealed fast to the Mid Ply. The Cap Sheet finished off the job.
