  • Modified bitumen membranes are 1-2 month lead times  based on the job size and needs


Residential Roofing Application (Steep Slope)

  • Asphalt Shingles- have limited color pallet selection with 1-2 month lead times.  

  • Concrete & Clay Roof Tile – standard color selections with 11- 12 months lead times.
