Components of a built-up roof system include the roof deck, a vapor retarder, insulation, membrane and surfacing material. The components are assembled at the job site to actually form the built-up roof. At the core of this roofing system is the roofing membrane, which consists of roofing bitumen and multiple reinforcing plies of roofing felt. Roofing bitumen is the primary adhesion/waterproofing agent used between roofing plies. Roofing bitumens may be either a product of petroleum refining (asphalts) or a product of the coal-cooking process (coal tar pitch) and are originally in solid form, but are heated and applied as a liquid. Multiple reinforcing “plies” are asphalt-coated roofing sheets or felts installed in three or more layers to strengthen and stabilize the built-up roof membrane. These multiple reinforcing felts also make the membrane more pliable and resilient, protect the bitumen from water degradation, and serve as a fire-retarding element in the membrane system. Built-up roof membranes can be protected from solar radiation by embedding gravel in the bitumen, applying a surface coating, or applying a granular-surfaced “cap” sheet. Light-colored surfacing materials can be used to reflect heat from the building and surfacing agents can be used to provide additional fire protection.

Depending on weather conditions, the average lifespan of asphalt built-up roofs are approximately 10-20 years. A built-up roof requires annual inspections because it is very common to find leaks that develop over the years. Penetrations on asphalt built-up roofs such as pipes, vents, and ductwork, require repairing and inspections annually, as they may gradually open and require periodic re-sealing. Seams and flashings may also need some repair work, and de-laminations and blisters may also needs to but cut off and fixed before they develop into leaks. During the lifespan of built-up roofs there are many commonly occurring problems that include leaks, because asphalt built-up membranes are so sensitive to penetrations, and alligatoring and blistering, as pockets of air and moisture may lie between layers of the asphalt built-up membranes.
