Flat and low-slope roofs require an entirely different engineering approach than sloped shingle roofs. Water does not run off easily, meaning the roofing material must act as a completely seamless, continuous waterproof seal. Torch Down roofing (APP or SBS Modified Bitumen) is one of the most reliable, heavy-duty, and time-tested solutions for flat residential and light commercial properties.
At Golden Heights Roofing, we are certified flat roofing specialists. We install premium multi-ply Torch Down systems that are heat-welded to create an impenetrable, rubberized barrier against the elements.

We completely strip the old flat roof system down to the plywood. Flat roofs are highly susceptible to hidden dry rot due to standing water. We thoroughly inspect, replace, and reinforce any damaged wooden decking and joists.
We lay a high-performance fiberglass base sheet secured with specialized fasteners. This acts as the critical first layer of defense, providing structural stability and vapor protection beneath the membrane.


Using propane torches, our highly trained and certified safety crews melt the asphalt on the underside of the modified bitumen cap sheet as it is rolled out. This melts the seams together, forming an absolute, single, seamless waterproof membrane across your entire flat roof.
To comply with California Title 24 energy mandates, we apply a highly reflective, granule-surfaced cool-roof cap sheet. This actively reflects UV rays, protecting the underlying asphalt from drying out and dropping your indoor summer temperatures dramatically.
