Modified Bitumen

Time-Tested Resilience for High-Traffic Assets.

Modified Bitumen represents the evolution of traditional roofing, combining a century of proven performance with modern polymer technology. At CMS Roofing, we recommend these systems for facilities that require an extra level of ruggedness. It is a thick, durable shield designed for buildings that aren’t just seen, but are actively managed and maintained by hands-on teams.

Multi-Layered Defense for Maximum Peace of Mind.

Unlike single-ply membranes, Modified Bitumen uses multiple layers of asphalt-bitumen reinforced with fiberglass or polyester. Yes, it costs more to install than a single-ply system, but it’s exponentially more resistant to punctures and the wear of daily foot traffic, which is why it’s the system we reach for on schools and other high-traffic facilities.

Features and Benefits

Modified bitumen roofing delivers time-tested strength with modern performance for dependable, long-term protection. Review the key features and benefits below to see why modified bitumen is a trusted choice for strength and weather resistance.

Extreme Puncture Resistance

The multi-layer composition and thick wear-surface make this system incredibly tough. It is the ideal choice for roofs with frequent foot traffic or heavy equipment, providing a shield that doesn’t easily compromise.

Redundant Watertight Security

With Modified Bitumen, you aren’t relying on a single layer of protection. The overlapping layers create a redundant, watertight barrier, giving you a steady sense of security even in the harshest Indiana weather.

Superior Tensile Strength

Reinforced with high-quality mats, these systems possess incredible strength and stability. They resist the natural “pull” of a building, maintaining their integrity without cracking or tearing over years of service.

Low Maintenance

Modified bitumen systems are easy to inspect and repair, keeping upkeep simple and affordable. With proper installation and care, they offer excellent longevity and cost efficiency over time.

Featured Project

Snider High School Football Stadium

This was a modified bitumen roofing project for the new Snider High School football stadium, a $30 million community venue right here in Fort Wayne. School facilities have to stand up to heavy use for decades, so we installed a multi-ply modified bitumen system known for its puncture resistance and toughness under foot traffic. As with every new construction job, we built to the architect’s exact spec and coordinated closely with the General Contractor and the other trades on site. It’s the kind of project that shows why modified bitumen is the go-to system for schools.
