Bitumin roof<\/b> is a roofing material that consists of bitumen, i.e. bitumen-based mass. Bituminous roofing is a common roofing material in Finland and is often used, for example, on the roofs of single-family houses and terraced houses. The bituminous roof is durable and easy to install, and it effectively protects the building from rain and snow.<\/p>\n

There are different types of bitumen roofs, such as felt roofs and broken felt roofs. Felt roofs are made of bitumen and fabric, while burnt felt roofs consist of bitumen and fibers. The colors of bituminous roofs can vary from black to gray and brown, and they can be installed using different techniques, such as hot sealing or cold gluing.<\/p>\n

The service life of bituminous roofs varies depending on the type and installation method, but they can last up to several decades. Maintenance of bituminous roofs is relatively easy, and they can be repaired locally if necessary. The installation of bituminous roofs should be left to a professional so that the roof can be installed correctly and sustainably.<\/p>\n
