Modified Bitumen Roofing
Commercial Modified Bitumen Roofing Systems
Modified bitumen is a multi-ply asphalt-based roofing system used on low-slope commercial, industrial, institutional, and government buildings. Its combination of reinforced membranes and proven asphalt technology makes modified bitumen an effective option for many commercial roofing applications.
Fydea, LLC installs, repairs, and maintains commercial modified bitumen roofing systems throughout Terre Haute and our broader regional market.
As a self-performing union commercial roofing contractor, Fydea provides modified bitumen roofing for new construction, roof replacement, repair, and maintenance projects.

SBS and APP Modified Bitumen Roofing
Modified bitumen roofing membranes are commonly manufactured using SBS or APP polymer modification.
Depending on the specified roofing assembly, manufacturer requirements, building conditions, and project requirements, modified bitumen systems may utilize different attachment and application methods.
The appropriate system should be selected based on factors including:
- Existing roof conditions
- Building use
- Roof configuration
- Project specifications
- Insulation requirements
- Drainage
- Rooftop traffic
- Flashing conditions
- Required warranty
- Owner objectives
Fydea works with project specifications and roofing-system requirements to install the appropriate assembly for each project.
Advantages of Modified Bitumen Roofing
Depending on the application and roofing assembly, modified bitumen can provide several benefits for commercial facilities:
- Multi-ply roofing protection
- Reinforced membrane construction
- Proven commercial roofing technology
- Strong resistance to normal rooftop traffic
- Compatibility with many low-slope roof configurations
- Repairability and maintainability
- Suitability for new construction and reroofing applications
No single roofing system is appropriate for every facility. Fydea evaluates the project requirements and existing conditions when determining how a specified or proposed roofing system should be installed.
Modified Bitumen Roof Replacement
Commercial roof replacement requires coordination of the entire roofing assembly—not simply installation of the new membrane.
Fydea's modified bitumen reroofing work may involve coordination of:
- Existing roof removal
- Existing deck conditions
- Roof insulation
- Cover boards
- Modified bitumen membrane systems
- Flashings
- Roof penetrations
- Drains and drainage components
- Perimeter conditions
- Architectural sheet metal
- Rooftop equipment
- Material staging
- Occupied facility operations
- Construction sequencing
Our experience with commercial and institutional facilities allows Fydea to plan roofing work around the conditions of the building and project.
