Torch-down roofs
A Seamless, Tough Roof for Flat Surfaces
Torch-down roofing is one of the most reliable flat roof systems in Los Angeles. Each layer of modified bitumen membrane is heated and fused to the one below, so there are no glued seams to open up over time.
We install base sheets and a mineral or white cap sheet, flash every drain, vent and wall properly, and finish with a reflective surface. Not sure which flat roof you need? See flat roofing options.

Torch-Down Roofing FAQs
Torch-down is a modified bitumen roof: rolls of rubberized asphalt membrane heated with a torch so the layers fuse together and to the roof. It creates a seamless, waterproof surface for flat roofs.

Both are good flat roofs. Torch-down is thicker and tougher under foot traffic; TPO is lighter and white from the start. We help you pick.
