4myroof removed 9” of old roofing materials and insulation during regular studio business hours. 4myroof  installed a redundant vapor barrier system over the existing concrete substrate “Torch Down Modified Bitumen Roofing System”. 4myroof then installed a sophisticated high-density EPS tapered insulation system to accomplish water flow to existing drain system including a 1/2 thick layer of Securock cover boards made of recycled prodcuts. Finally, 4myroof installed the FiberTite 20-Year single-ply KEE (Ketone Ethylene Ester) roofing membrane system on top of the tapered roof insulation.  The entire insulation and roofing system was secured to the vapor barrier using structural adhesives.
