What to know
Understanding built-up roofing
Built-up roofing (BUR) consists of layered bituminous materials used on many established low-slope roofs. Abilene property owners should consider drainage, roof access, existing layers and the cause of visible damage before authorizing work.
Common signs and situations
Older multi-ply roof wear, localized leaks, surface deterioration. These signals do not automatically establish that a particular roofing system needs replacement.
What to discuss with a roofing provider
Inspection should consider roof layers, moisture, surfacing, insulation and existing drainage.
