SBS Roofing Membrane

SBS or Modified Bitumen (Styrene Butadiene Styrene) is an elastomeric additive to asphalt that when cooled exhibits rubber like properties. SBS roofing system is a manufactured roofing membrane with superior waterproofing, UV resistance and long-term durability properties. SBS roofing membrane systems are classified as 2-ply system it’s comprised of 2 layers of membrane bonded to each other to using hot asphalt or a propane torch creating a monolithic waterproof membrane. The top layer “Cap Sheet” has small rock granules embedded in the membrane to provide UV protection. These granules are available in a variety of colours.

SBS modified bitumen roofing systems have evolved to include a wide variety of products and application methods depending on the client’s wants and needs.

Some of the more common application methods are:

The 1st ply “base sheet” fastened to the substrate using specialized screws and plates. The mechanically fastened option is the most cost effective application method for SBS systems.

I had a small leak on my flat roof. Platinum showed up on time the next day. I was shown the likely cause of the leak, which was repaired the same day. A low-cost option was provided, which seems to be working. No unnecessary and expensive repairs. Professional and prompt service was provided and for a very reasonable rate. Highly impressed.

Mark and his team at Platinum Roofing.ca Ltd. were professional and paid attention to all the details. They installed a TPO membrane over an existing metal roof system and I’m confident its going to perform great. Straight forward and do what they say they are going to do. Well done.

I had the extreme pleasure of having Platinum roofing come in on short notice for a TPO install on a Tim Hortons restaurant. the other contractor we had was not professional at all. Mark and his workers did an exceptional job, Very professional in workmanship and in a timely manner. We at Pro-king construction strongly recommend Platinum Roofing for all your Roofing needs.

This spring I had three commercial roofs that needed replacement. Received many quotes from other roofing companies. And decided to go ahead with Platinum Roofings services. From start to finish, I found Platinum roofing to be professional, timely, clean and respectful to my tenants. Even to go as far as notifying when noise levels would be excessive. Thanks for everything.

Clem Walisser

the roof on my man cave has finally failed. Platinum Roofing repaired it for me a few years ago, did a great job but the other parts are starting to fail and it’s time to replace the whole thing. I called and was re quoted a price in 2 days.I will be moving ahead with a complete replacement with TPO membrane from Platinum Roofing. Now hoping wether remains good so that they can schedule me in. Thanks, Platinum.

I’m pleased to say that we will be working with Mark and his crews once again this season .I highly recommend Platinum Roofing as they truly are Calgary’s Flat Roof Specialist’s.

I have worked with Mark and Platinum Roofing for over 7 yrs now on a few commercial buildings.From 30 + yrs experience in managing properties, I prefer an SBS or torch down roof as its seems to last the longest in Albertas crazy weather. Platinum roofing is very professional and knowledgeable about all commercial roof applications. I highly recommend this company and look forward to working with them again soon.

Sandra Annie

We decided to hire Platinum Roofing for a flat roof on a commercial building in SE Calgary. We looked at 4 other commercial roofing companies and chose Platinum not only for a fair price but I was able to have an independent roofing inspector of my choice inspect the roof during and after roofing work was complete. Best part was Platinum paid for the roofing inspector. I was able to cut costs by about 10% and my boss loves me for it. Special thanks to Mark the owner for all his great advise. We definitely will be using them again for the other sections of roof in the coming years.

I want to start by saying that the entire experience with Platinum Roofing was easy and stress free. Earlier this spring, our family-owned apartment building’s roof started to leak. I did my homework and called a few companies to provide quotes. Platinum’s price was second lowest, but when I called the lowest guy he started talking about all the extras he’d have to add in. He seemed a bit flaky so I spoke to Mark at Platinum Roofing. He explained that (with the exception any rotting wood deck that might be found) his price included all the extras the other guy was trying to add in. The other prices I got were way high so I decided to go with Platinum. The job went very smoothly. Luckily there was no rotten deck, so extra dollars. I spoke with all the commercial tenants we have on the ground floor and a couple of residents that live in the building. All had good things to say about Platinum or they didn’t even notice that Platinum was there. Good job guys! Would definitely use again.
