Overview

A dense, fully bonded barrier that does not rely on the weather to cure

Torch-on membranes are factory-made rolls of uniform thickness. Each sheet is heated with a gas torch and fused to the substrate, so the finished membrane is dense, seamless, and fully bonded. It resists peeling, cracking, and bubbling, and handles Australian sun, heat, and fast temperature swings.

We are often called in after another system has failed. Liquid membranes still have their place around odd shapes and penetrations, and we use both where each works best.
