Coal Tar Built-up Roofing Systems
are well known for their long-term durability, low
maintenance and low life-cycle cost. This system's
leading features are its self healing properties,
natural resistance to aging and its ability to resist
ponded water.
A Coal Tar roofing system represents the industry’s
premier built-up roof membrane assembly. Coal tar’s
unique molecular structure provides a system that
resists water and vapor penetration, insect damage,
chemical attack, UV exposure and most elements
considered common enemies to other roof membrane
systems. Its superior resistance to ponding water
eliminates the costly use of tapered insulation. Its
cold flow/self-healing properties mean lower maintenance
costs since small cracks and fissures disappear before
they become real problems.
The unprecedented and time tested performance of coal
tar pitch, coupled with the redundancy of up to 5 plies
of organic or fiberglass reinforcements, makes a Coal
Tar built-up roofing assembly the system of choice where
long term performance and low maintenance costs are
important.
Maintaining your Coal Tar
Built-up Roofing System
Due to its resistance to ponded
water, oxidation, chemical attack and its cold flow,
self healing properties, coal tar pitch built-up roofing
systems typically require little maintenance. However,
to get the most out of your roof, a routine audit is
recommended in order to detect problems due to wear and
tear, abuse or unusual acts of nature. Building owners,
who regularly check the condition of their coal tar
roofs and implement preventative maintenance procedures
when necessary, often find their roofs lasting 30 to 40
years or more.
