It is important for homeowners to check their asphalt shingle roofs for signs of wear and tear. More often than not, certain forms of damage would require the expertise of professionals. Shingle cupping is one of the notable indicators to look out for during inspections.
Things Roofers Do to Ensure Built-Up Roof Performance
Built-up roofing (BUR) is one of the most commonly used types of commercial roofing. Also known as “tar and gravel” roofing, it is made up of layers of material laminated together. These include fiberglass or asphalt-coated base sheet, felt or fabric-like layer, bitumen and a surfacing component like gravel or asphalt. Through these layers, a flat or low-sloped commercial roof becomes durable, versatile and long lasting.
What You Need to Know About Roof Shrinkage
