Direct answer

Built-up roofing, or tar and gravel, is the century-old system still protecting Haslet buildings that were roofed before single-ply existed, and still a legitimate choice for the right structure.

BUR builds a roof in redundant layers: alternating bitumen and reinforcing felts topped with gravel that shields the assembly from UV and traffic. Existing BUR in Haslet often earns maintenance and restoration over replacement, since the mass and redundancy that made it heavy also made it durable.

We install and service built-up roofing (bur) across Haslet and the surrounding DFW communities. That includes free written estimates, documented inspections, and honest guidance on whether this system actually fits your home and budget.

On the ground in Haslet

What Built-Up Roofing (BUR) costs and returns in Haslet depends on the houses it goes onto. A large share of homes here are young enough that their original builder-grade roofs are only now meeting their first serious hail test. That inventory rewards the boring commercial virtues: documented seams, maintained drains, and a membrane matched to the building’s actual use.

The permit runs through Haslet’s building department; we handle the filing and the inspection scheduling as part of the job. When the next core drops through Tarrant County, single-ply shows bruise fractures that a chalk circle will not catch. Instrument surveys find what walking the roof misses. Because Fort Worth, Arlington, and Mansfield share our dispatch routes, examples of this exact system nearby are easy to arrange. We put the whole thing in writing (findings, grade, price, warranty) before you commit to anything.

THE SYSTEM

Built-Up Roofing (BUR), up close.

A wide view across a large white TPO single-ply membrane commercial flat roof. The membrane lies in parallel ten-foot-wide sheets with hot-air-welded lap seams running as clean straight lines toward the far parapet, a faint fastener row hidden under each lap. Three curb-mounted rooftop HVAC units with proper flashed curbs, one round vent pipe with a molded penetration boot, gray walkway pads leading between the units, slight dirt shadowing and a couple of shallow drying puddles from last night's rain, parapet wall with metal coping at the roof edge. Flat gray-blue morning sky over a North Texas industrial district.
Flat / low-slope membrane. Single-ply and built-up systems chosen by what the roof actually does all day.

Common questions about built-up roofing (bur) in Haslet

My Haslet building has tar-and-gravel. Replace it?

Not automatically. Sound BUR restores and maintains well; its redundancy is real. A moisture survey tells you whether the assembly beneath the gravel is dry, and that answer decides.

Why did BUR fall out of fashion?

Weight, installation labor, and odor during application. Single-ply installs faster and lighter. Neither of those points makes an existing sound BUR roof bad.

Is upgrading from builder-grade shingles worth it in Haslet?

Usually at the first replacement or claim: Class 4 impact-rated systems earn many Texas carriers' premium discounts, and newer communities' HOA standards generally approve them easily. The math works hardest on homes facing decades of DFW hail.
