Torch down roofing is a modified bitumen system installed by heat-welding rolls of asphalt membrane directly to the roof deck. A hand-held propane torch melts the underside of each sheet as it's rolled out, fusing the seams into a single, continuous, waterproof membrane — not just overlapping layers held together with adhesive.
Because the bitumen is modified with rubber or plastic, the finished membrane stays flexible through Southern California's heat and the occasional cold snap, without cracking or losing its seal.
Both systems use the same modified bitumen membrane, heat-welded into place. The difference is how many layers of membrane go down before the cap sheet — which affects thickness, durability, and cost.
Most residential flat roofs perform well with a 2-ply system. A 3-ply system is generally recommended for roofs with heavier foot traffic, commercial buildings, or homeowners prioritizing maximum longevity. We'll recommend the right system for your roof during your free inspection.
Every seam is torched and fused into a single continuous membrane — not just overlapped and glued. This is what gives torch down roofing its reputation for a dependable, consistent seal.
We'll recommend the right number of plies for your roof based on traffic, slope, and how long you want the system to last.
The top layer is embedded with mineral granules for UV resistance, added fire resistance, and a finished, durable surface.

A 2-ply system is a reliable, cost-effective choice for most residential flat roofs. A 3-ply system adds an extra layer of membrane for greater thickness, durability, and lifespan — a good fit for roofs with foot traffic, commercial buildings, or homeowners who want maximum longevity. We'll recommend the right option after inspecting your roof.
Yes, when installed by a trained, licensed crew. Torch down installation uses an open-flame propane torch to heat-weld the membrane, which requires proper technique and fire safety precautions. Our crews are experienced specifically with torch-applied modified bitumen systems.
A properly installed torch down roof typically lasts 15–20 years, with 3-ply systems generally lasting longer than 2-ply systems. Lifespan also depends on drainage, maintenance, and how much foot traffic the roof sees.
