Modified bitumen roofing is applied through a process that involves blending traditional asphalt with modifiers, such as polymers, to enhance performance. The modified bitumen is typically installed using either torch-down or cold adhesive methods. In the torch-down method, a propane torch heats the underside of the membrane, allowing it to bond to the substrate. The cold adhesive method uses a specially formulated adhesive to secure the membrane. This results in a durable, weather-resistant roofing system.
