How do you add roll roofing under shingle roofing?
I am not sure if this question is worded correctly. 1) To add rolled roofing under shingles is not a recommended method of installation. What will work is to install a layer of Ice & Water Protection such as Grace Ice & Water Shield prior to the installation of your shingles. 2) If you meant to ask about installing rolled roofing over your shingles or installing shingles over your rolled roofing this is once again not recommended but is commonly done. You would first make sure the surface is level and remove all loose debris from existing roofing materials and or dirt, leaves, etc.. Just a quick clean up and sweep should be good. Then if the existing roofing materials are leaking I would recommend you either remove them and do this installation properly or at least install a layer of underlayment such as a heavy 30# felt paper or RoofTop Guard II over the existing materials. Then install the new materials following the manufacturers specifications. Once again this is not the recommended procedure and will void all manufacturers warranties.

What is Mod Bit roofing?
Modified Bitumen Roofing is an engineered product for flexibility. Expansion and contraction from weather temperatures/humidity/dryness makes asphalt/bitumen/tar products crack when hardened/aged. On low pitched roofing systems, boxed curbs are built to house large penetrations in order to keep water out. As the roof meets these boxed curbs, a 45* slanted board (cant strip) is installed at the bottom junction, to allow the rolled roofing membranes to bend gradually. Even with the added cant strip in place, regular field membrane cap sheets (granulated roll) can break at the transitions, therefore a need for a more flexible roofing membrane. The modified bitumen products may be used on the horizontal planes as well as the vertical planes, for a longer lasting roof and a higher price.

Check The Edges Of Rolled Roofing?
If your place of business has had a roof put on it with rolled roofing, make sure that you frequently check the edges. Even if the roofing team has done a very good job and secured the roll as well as they can, this is where it will typically pull back from the edge of the building. This can let rain and moisture in. Even a small crack can be very bad for the integrity of the building, so you need to look at these edges and find any problems while they are still small in order to stop them.
