Modified bitumen is asphalt-based commercial roofing — a step up from old built-up tar-and-gravel systems with better material consistency and easier maintenance. Atlas Roofing installs modified bitumen in University Heights on commercial flat roofs.
In University Heights, our commercial roofing work centers on the Cedar Center area and similar properties — flat-roof systems (TPO, EPDM) and modified bitumen on retail, office, and small industrial buildings.
University Heights' housing stock is concentrated in 1920s-1950s, so most homes are now on their third or fourth roof — the original tongue-and-groove decking we find on tear-offs along Cedar Road and Warrensville Center is often warped at the eaves and needs partial sheathing replacement.
Steeper-pitched 1920s tudors near John Carroll have complex valley intersections that need careful step-flashing detail at every dormer transition.
When you have an existing asphalt-based roof (built-up roofing) and want a similar-system replacement, or when fire/heat resistance is important.
