The Trusted Choice for Flat and Low-Slope Roofs
Built-up roofing (BUR) has earned its reputation as one of the most durable systems for flat and low-slope properties. By layering bitumen and reinforcing fabrics, it forms a rugged, watertight surface that resists damage and delivers decades of protection. J & D Independent Roofing installs and maintains BUR systems built to safeguard commercial and industrial facilities across Western Canada.
Why Built-Up Roofing Is a Smart Investment
Here’s what makes BUR is a trusted choice:
Multi-Layer Protection
Several layers of bitumen and reinforcing fabric create a rugged barrier that resists leaks and weather damage.
Exceptional Durability
BUR systems stand up to heavy use, harsh climates, and years of exposure without breaking down.
Long-Term Value
With a lifespan of 25–30 years, built-up roofing reduces the need for frequent replacements.
Cost-Effective
Low maintenance requirements and fewer repairs translate into reduced long-term operating costs for businesses.
Versatile Application
Ideal for flat and low-slope commercial and industrial properties of all sizes across Western Canada.
Applications for BUR Systems
