Benefits of Modified Bitumen Roofing
Durability
Modified Bitumen roofs are highly resistant to extreme weather conditions, including high winds, hail, and heavy rain. They are also resistant to thermal shock and UV radiation.
Flexibility
The material is flexible, making it ideal for buildings with slight movements or those subject to temperature fluctuations. This flexibility reduces the risk of cracks and leaks.
10-Year Workmanship Guarantee
Mod Bit roofing is a cost-effective solution for flat or low-slope roofs. It offers excellent performance at a competitive price point.
Ease of Installation
Modified Bitumen can be installed quickly and efficiently, minimizing disruption to your property.
Energy Efficiency
Available in reflective coatings, Mod Bit roofs can enhance energy efficiency by reflecting solar heat, reducing cooling costs.
Low Maintenance
Once installed, Mod Bit roofs require minimal maintenance, saving property owners time and money over the long term.
Types of Modified Bitumen Roofing
APP (Atactic Polypropylene) Modified Bitumen
This type of Mod Bit roofing is modified with plastic (APP) polymers, making it more resistant to UV radiation and suitable for torch-applied installations.
SBS (Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene) Modified Bitumen
Modified with rubber (SBS) polymers, this type offers superior flexibility and is typically installed using cold adhesives or hot asphalt.
Modified Bitumen vs. Other Flat Roofing Systems
Modified Bitumen vs. Built-Up Roofing (BUR)
Durability: Both systems are durable, but Mod Bit typically offers better flexibility and resistance to thermal shock.
Installation: Mod Bit is generally easier and quicker to install compared to the labor-intensive process of installing BUR.
Maintenance: Mod Bit roofs often require less maintenance than BUR systems, which can be prone to gravel displacement and membrane separation over time.
Cost: While both are cost-effective, Mod Bit can be more economical due to its simpler installation process.

Modified Bitumen vs. Single-Ply Roofing (EPDM, TPO, PVC)
Durability: Mod Bit and single-ply systems both offer durability, but single-ply systems may offer superior resistance to certain chemicals.
Energy Efficiency: Single-ply membranes like TPO and PVC often have excellent reflective properties, but Mod Bit with reflective coatings can also achieve significant energy savings.
Flexibility: Mod Bit offers flexibility in varying temperatures, while EPDM can become brittle in cold weather.
Installation: Single-ply systems are typically faster to install, but Mod Bit’s torch-applied or self-adhered options can streamline installation while offering robust performance.

Modified Bitumen vs. Spray Polyurethane Foam (SPF)
Durability: Both provide durable roofing solutions, but Mod Bit may have an edge in puncture resistance.
Maintenance: SPF roofs require periodic recoating, whereas Mod Bit roofs typically require less frequent maintenance.
Cost: Mod Bit is generally more cost-effective upfront compared to SPF, which can be more expensive due to the specialized equipment and expertise required for installation.
