The Golf Lake Condominiums at East Bay, located near Tampa, Florida, provide luxury resort-style living with their relaxing patios, pond and golf course views, and an array of amenities including a pool and clubhouse. The proximity to beautiful nearby beaches further enhances the appeal of this residential haven. However, maintaining such a high standard of living requires regular upgrades. So, when it was time for a new roof on one of the condo buildings, Strategic Roofing, known for their expertise in residential and commercial roofing solutions, connected to Polyglass USA.
The roofing contractor had previously experienced significant success using Polyglass USA’s underlayment systems on various projects. The low-slope roof at Golf Lake Condos offered an ideal opportunity to utilize the advanced Polyglass SBS modified bitumen roofing system, renowned for its exceptional durability, reliability, and performance.
The roofing process was meticulously carried out, involving the application of a self-adhered base sheet followed by the torch application of a Polyglass USA cap sheet. Throughout this detailed process, Polyglass provided invaluable guidance on penetration details, ensuring the finished roof was not only watertight but also aesthetically pleasing and highly durable. Hiring qualified contractors is crucial to avoid costly repairs that can arise from roofing errors.
Scott Coles of Strategic Roofing highlighted the seamless collaboration, stating, “Polyglass was so easy to work with. Both Steve Rush, Technical Service Representative, and Arty Vazquez, District Sales Manager, were always available for problem-solving. Steve worked around our schedule to make the proper on-site inspections as we needed them.”
This partnership exemplified the synergy between respected firms and top-quality products, resulting in durable, reliable roofs that protect properties and ensure satisfaction for years to come.

Elastoflex SA V Plus SBS Modified Bitumen Membrane
A robust, self-adhered elastomeric base ply low-slope roofing product manufactured with ADESO® dual-compound self-adhered technology, whereby a “true” Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene (SBS) modified asphalt compound is applied on the top layer and an aggressive self-adhesive compound is applied on the bottom layer. This product’s design accommodates different roof pitches, ensuring optimal performance regardless of the slope. Elastoflex SA V Plus is built with a high-quality reinforced fiberglass mat to ensure superior strength and excellent dimensional stability, providing a robust membrane that resists natural forces and other challenging rooftop factors.
Polyflex G for Low Slope Roofing Systems
An APP (plastomeric) granulated cap sheet tailored for low-slope roofing, specifically designed for heat-welded applications. Polyflex G is also compatible with metal roofing systems, offering a durable and aesthetically appealing solution that can withstand extreme weather conditions. It incorporates superior non-woven polyester reinforcement, providing excellent flexibility, dimensional stability, and exceptional tear and puncture resistance. This ensures that the roofing system can withstand harsh environmental conditions and severe mechanical stresses, maintaining its integrity and performance over time.
PG 500 for Low Slope Applications
A high-quality formulation suitable for use as a cold-applied bonding agent for SBS roofing systems, as well as various other membrane systems. It is also highly effective for sealing lap seams and perimeter edges of SBS modified bitumen membranes, providing a durable and weather-tight seal. It features a heavy “trowel-grade” consistency, making it ideal for flashing details, attachment of membrane to steep slopes and parapet walls, and a variety of waterproofing repairs. PG 500’s versatility, durability, reliability, and effectiveness make it an essential component in creating and maintaining durable roofing systems.
