Modified RoofsMizell Roofing installs modified roofs in Mobile, Alabama. A modified roof uses rolls of roofing resembling shingle-like material. The material then is either melted down with a torch or mopped down with hot or cold asphalt. The mopped down method is very popular in the southern states.
Built Up RoofsBuilt-up roofing is composed of several layers of bitumen surfaces, and then topped with an aggregate layer or coating. Some built-up roofs incorporate a rigid insulation layer as part of the built-up roofing. The fabrics or layers used on built-up roofing are called ply sheets. These sheets are commonly reinforced with fiberglass mats or organic mats, depending on their application. Ply sheets are commonly produced in a standard size about 36 inches width.
Shingle RoofsMizell Roofing has installed a number of shingled roofs in Mobile, Alabama. Shingled roofs use flat rectangular shapes (shingles) laid in rows from the bottom edge of the roof up, with each successive higher row overlapping the joints in the row below. Historically, at the roof ridge there was a cap consisting of copper or lead sheeting which in modern times has been replaced by shingles with a plastic underlay. Shingles are made of various materials such as wood, slate, asbestos-cement, bitumen-soaked paper covered with aggregate (asphalt shingle), composite or ceramic.
