Bothwell-Accurate is a leader in environmental roofing
for energy savings and greenhouse gas reductions. As one of the
only Canadian companies certified ISO14064
compliant, we provide both green and photovoltaic roofing.

Green Roofing has been highly popular in Europe for
some time, and is now becoming more popular in North America, because of
its many benefits over traditional roofing, which include:
|
Extended roof life
|
Green roofing protects the roof membrane,
which results in an extended lifespan (up two twice the
traditional lifespan) and decreased maintenance.
|
 |
|
Heating and cooling
savings
|
Environment Canada concluded that summer
cooling needs could be reduced by 25% in a typical one story
building with a grass roof and growing medium.
|
|
Sound Insulation/strong>
|
Green roofing can reduce sound from airplanes
and ground traffic: plants and growing medium can reduce
sound by up to 40-50 decibels depending on the growth medium.
|
|
Aesthetic Enhancements
|
Aesthetics play an important part of improving
the value of the building and work spaces. Green Roofing coverts
otherwise undesirable space into prime living / working areas
with aesthetic appeal.
|
A green roof from Bothwell Accurate not only provides
you with LEED credits for environmental
responsibility, but also carbon credit that you can trade or use to
reduce your business’ carbon footprint.

Photovoltaic
(solar cell) technology has been around since the late 1950’s when they
were used to power earth-orbiting satellites. Today photovoltaic modules
are being used to provide power to commercial, industrial and
institutional building in the greater Toronto area. Installed during the
new or re-roofing process, photovoltaic roofing systems can reduce
utility costs and eliminate dependency on grid provided power, while
also adding up to three LEED credits to
your building.
Bothwell-Accurate can implement the appropriate
photovoltaic roofing system for your project that provides reliable,
affordable green power for your commercial, industrial or institutional
building.

Bothwell-Accurate
provides 24x7x365 emergency service, on an
as-needed basis, or as part of our preventative maintenance program.
Like many other building components, roofs will be
subject to climatic and environmental conditions that contribute to wear
and tear – but most roofs fail not from age but from neglect. One
of the easiest ways to save money on roofing is to move to a roofing
maintenance program. Many of our major corporate and institutional
clients have added up to 50% more service life to their roofs and
realized significant savings on costly repairs and premature
replacement.
Drawing on the knowledge and experience we’ve gained
over the last 80 years, Bothwell-Accurate has a strong and effective set
of programs for roofing maintenance and management. Our Roof Management
Program is constructed around a 20-point preventative maintenance and
repair schedule, and provides building owners to identify and eliminate
existing and potential roofing problems, reducing overall maintenance
costs as well as those unexpected costs that play havoc with budget
management.
The Bothwell-Accurate Roof Management Program:
|
Analyze
|
Annual or semi-annual 20-point preventative
maintenance inspection identifies and documents all visually
apparent deficiencies on your roof, and verifies the following:
- Roof drainage.
- Condition of the membrane and evidence of
ridging, blistering, bare or scoured areas.
- Condition of the membrane flashing and
sheet metal flashing.
- Presence of ponding, vegetation and
harmful debris.
- Condition of all penetrations, caulk and
sealants.

We provide you with a detailed status report
on the general condition of your roof, as well as an assessment

itemized list of issues complete with recommendations and

Built-Up Roofing (BUR) is one of the oldest most common types of
low-slope roof systems that is still applied to commercial roofs today.
BUR has a 120 year track record.
The BUR
is
a series of field laminated layers of asphalt and (Organic or Fibreglass)
felt, with
a flood coat of asphalt and Pea Gravel used
for UV protection.
The most important things to consider when selecting a
built-up roof are the quality of materials, commitment to quality and
the experience of the installers – Bothwell-Accurate gives you all of
these, ensuring the best capital return on investment for your roofing
project
Advantages

Time proven
¡
Good adhesive
characteristics

resistance

This
roofing system employs reinforced glass or polyester fabrics impregnated
with rubberized asphalt, resulting in a lighter product than built-up
roofing, with no ballast requirement. The Modified Bitumen system offers
greater design freedom with color choices, and decorative and textural
finishes.Modified Bitumen Roof Systems
are done in two layers. Base Sheet
and a Cap Sheet
with ceramic granules on top for UV protection with rolls sizes limited
to 3’ wide rolls
The Advantages to Modified Bitumen Roofing are:
¡

¡
Variety of different colors
The attachment methods are:

Fully Adhered in Asphalt
}
Fused in place by Torching
}
Peel and Stick

This liquefied material is used in inverted roofs
where insulation and ballast rest on top of the “pour-and-cooled” two
ply membrane. It bonds to the substrate forming a monolithic skin over
the roof, creating a vapor and air barrier. Its elastomeric base gives
the Hot Rubberized Asphalt roofing system a “self-healing” property.
Cold Applied Systems
Multiple plies of organic or inorganic felts can be
laid in the roofing system using cold adhesives. This can be
advantageous when the use of hot materials is not practical.

Single ply membrane systems are lightweight, clean,
and rapidly installed. A number of systems are available in elastomeric
and polymeric base compounds. Working only with proven products from the
top manufacturers, we install single-ply systems including:

¡
PVC

Waterproofing is seldom visible yet vital to the
performance of a building. It takes considerable knowledge and
experience to implement the correct waterproofing system based on your
building and business needs.
With more than eight types of waterproofing systems
available and over 10,000 unique waterproofing projects, Bothwell-Accurate
can recommend and implement the waterproofing system ideally suited to
your building and needs.
Often, building owners and homeowners will live with
wet below-ground conditions because they believe the solution will be
costly -- but some cases, it may require only a simple repair or
re-sealing that can be done from the inside. We would be pleased
to inspect your building and provide our recommendations for your
waterproofing needs.
From new construction to repair Bothwell-Accurates
dedicated waterproofing crews are ready to deliver outstanding results
on your next project.
We are happy to provide a
quotation for your waterproofing needs. For more information on
our waterproofing services, please
contact Mario Giraldi at (416) 762-8243 or
mgiraldi@baroof.com.

Bothwell-Accurate provides complete custom sheet metal
flashing and caps for all roofing projects. A roofing project is
only as good as the flashings and caps that go with it – poor or
non-existent flashing on roof penetrations and junctions can lead to
leaks and cause your roof to deteriorate faster than it should.
Because every building is different, it’s important to
ensure that your flashing is designed to fit the roof snugly, with none
of the gaps that may be apparent with off-the-rack products.
With Bothwell-Accurate’s custom service, you can be assured of a quality job,
that will protect your roof as it should.
We are happy to provide a
quotation for your metal flashing and cap needs. For more
information custom sheet metal services, please
