This multi-layer asphalt and felt membrane approach creates a seamless, waterproof surface suited to commercial buildings and certain residential structures common in the area.
Local roofing context
Chantilly, IL (60018) near O’Hare experiences heavy winter snowfall and freeze-thaw cycles that promote ice dams and standing water on flat roofs. Many buildings in neighborhoods around Bryn Mawr Avenue and nearby commercial zones use BUR or similar membranes because they handle ponding water better than shingles. Local code requires permits for roof replacements, and inspections often check drainage and flashing details to prevent leaks into attics or ceilings.
How Built-up roofing (BUR) works and who it’s for
Built-up roofing (BUR) consists of alternating layers of reinforcing felt and hot asphalt or cold-applied adhesive topped with gravel or a mineral cap sheet. Homeowners notice the need when granule loss appears in gutters, blisters form on the surface, or interior water stains develop. Delaying repair allows moisture to reach the decking, leading to rot and higher replacement costs later.
