Ruberoid is a roofing (roll) material that combines value for money, and the technological qualities of a five-layer coating are not inferior to a roof made of galvanized steel, as if plastic windows are not inferior to wooden ones.
There is only one, but a significant drawback of roofing material – it is highly flammable.
For a stronger and most durable (at least 30 years) coating, it is necessary to comply with all technological requirements for its installation. Remember that for each roof the number of layers of this material is individual, as it depends on the slope of the roof. Roof pitches greater than 45° require two coats, three coats for roof pitches between 20° and 40°, and the smallest slopes between 5° and 15° require four coats..
Rolled roofing must be laid on a flat and rigid base and preferably with a two-layer coating. Weather conditions play an important role in the laying of roofing material, so the work is carried out only in warm, not rainy (dry) times. Before starting work, the roofing material must be deployed so that it straightens as evenly as possible, we treat the base of the roof with a primer (impregnation, which includes bitumen diluted with gasoline, is perfect for priming) and lay the roofing material on cold or hot mastic.
