Service Overview: Proven Performance for Flat & Low-Slope Roofs

Built to Last in Southern Alberta

Built-up roofing has protected commercial buildings for over a century—and for good reason. With multiple layers of bitumen and reinforcing fabric, BUR creates a durable, seamless, and waterproof membrane ideal for flat and low-slope roofs. We tailor each BUR installation to meet your building’s unique structural and performance needs.
