At Hercules Roofing, we are hot mop roofing contractors with extensive flat roof installation experience. We follow a proven process to save time while ensuring long-lasting results:  

1. Evaluating the existing roof structure to ensure that it can carry the hot mop roof’s weight 
2. Cleaning the existing roof surface 
3. Installing flashing along the edges of the roof, roof structures, and fittings to create a waterproof seal 
4. Placing a waterproof material, such as rosin paper, on the roof deck surface 
5. Applying a layer of molten asphalt to the waterproofing using a specialized mop 
6. Covering the molten asphalt layer with building felt 
7. Adding a top layer of pea stones or gravel

In most cases, multiple layers of hot liquid asphalt and building felt are necessary to create an impermeable roof layer. The top gravel surface is optional, but we typically recommend it to protect the asphalt from the sun’s UV rays.
