Modified bitumen is built on layers: two or more plies of polymer-modified asphalt create a roof with backup, so a puncture has to get through redundancy rather than a single membrane. It handles rooftop foot traffic well, which suits Bedford buildings whose roofs double as equipment yards. Modern cold-applied and self-adhered systems have retired most of the old torch-down fire concerns. We price every mod-bit job with a free written estimate, and our inspection findings come with photos. Deductibles are not waived, per Texas law, and we are not in the public adjuster business.
Mod-Bit Redundancy for Bedford Buildings
Redundancy matters in a place that sees the hail Bedford sees. The area within 5 miles of the city has logged hail an inch or larger on 25 days since 2006, and 8 of those days reached golf-ball size or larger. A multi-ply roof gives a hailstone more material to get through before water finds a path. On buildings with rooftop units, technicians walking to service equipment add steady wear, and mod-bit tolerates that traffic. When we inspect after a storm, we check the plies at impact points and around equipment curbs, and the photos go into the owner’s file. Our Tarrant County crews also install modified bitumen in Euless and Colleyville.
