Torch-on roofing is a mainstay in Vancouver. It’s been at the forefront of commercial roofing for many years. While its popularity for residential roofing had declined for a while due to the smaller number of flat-roof homes, it is now making a comeback with all the new contemporary home styles. It has always remained a popular and wise choice for commercial properties such as warehouses and strip malls with flat or low-pitch roofs.
Absolute Roof Solutions is trained, ready, and eager to assist you with your torch-on roofing needs across the Vancouver area. We guarantee the highest quality work with the least disruption and the best service.
Quick, Reliable, Safe Protection
If your existing flat torch-on roof is leaking, wearing, or developing mould and algae, Absolute Roof Solutions can repair or replace it fast and warranty it for years. Removing an old surface and using a torch to make new material adhere to the roof is quite simple and quick. Torch-on roofing in Vancouver uses a waterproof yet flexible combination of asphalt, butylene, and styrene. This material is reinforced with a mat of either fibreglass or polyester.
Although it’s similar to gravel or tar roofing, torch-on roofing is lighter. As it’s rolled out, it is heated with a flame torch to ‘weld’ it to layers below. Unlike gravel and tar, torch-on roofing doesn’t produce noxious fumes.
