Built-Up Roof
Every roof is unique, and at Goad Construction, we understand that your building's roofing needs are as distinctive as its architecture. Our team of experienced professionals specializes in the installation, servicing, and maintenance of Built-up roof systems, ensuring that each client receives a solution tailored to their specific requirements.
Built-Up Roofing (often called “tar and gravel roofs”) has been used in the U.S. for over 100 years, making it one of the oldest and most proven commercial roofing systems.
A Built-Up Roof consists of multiple layers of asphalt (bitumen) alternated with reinforcing plies, finished with a gravel or mineral cap sheet. A common hybrid variation includes a modified bitumen cap sheet for additional flexibility and performance.
