Modified bitumen gives you built-up durability in factory-made rolls, which means far more consistent thickness than anything mixed on a roof. For Cary buildings we specify SBS on most jobs because it stays flexible through our winter swings, and we use self-adhered systems wherever open flame is a genuine risk.
No Unnecessary Torch Work
Self-adhered and cold-adhesive options on occupied and wood-deck buildings.
SBS for This Climate
Rubber-modified sheets handle North Carolina freeze-thaw better.

Modified Bitumen Roofing in Cary — Common Questions
Straight answers about modified bitumen roofing for Cary property owners.
How much does modified bitumen cost in Cary?
Typically $5-9 per square foot installed. Self-adhered systems cost a little more in material but avoid the fire risk and insurance complications of torch application.
What's the difference between SBS and APP?
SBS is rubber-modified and stays flexible in cold — better for buildings that move or see real winter. APP is plastic-modified with higher heat tolerance. For Cary's climate we specify SBS on most jobs.
Is torch-down roofing safe?
In trained hands on the right building, yes — but open flame near combustible construction is a genuine risk. On occupied buildings and wood decks we use self-adhered or cold-adhesive systems instead.
How long does modified bitumen last?
20-25 years typical. Granulated cap sheets protect the asphalt from UV, which is the main thing that ages these roofs.
Can it go over my existing roof?
Often yes, if you're within code layer limits and the existing insulation is dry. We core-sample before recommending recover over tear-off.
