Torch on Felt Flat Roofs

IKO and Soprema’s range of torch-applied systems is second to none. Torch-on membranes have an underside which has been pre-treated with a covering of thermofusible bitumen. This covering is then heated with a propane gas torch and the membrane is applied to the surface of the roof while the bitumen is still hot.

At ELC Roofing we offer a three layer system to add extra protection to the Flat Roof on your property.
