As they offer unrivaled water resistance and can withstand varying temperatures, EPDM membranes are perfectly suited for flat roofs. This includes the low pitched roofs of small residential garages as well as large commercial premises. 

Unlike liquid-based alternatives, EPDM membranes are easy to fit and offer a superb lifespan of over 50 years in most circumstances. Making them ideal for homeowners who require minimum disruption and want to limit ongoing maintenance.

Our range of EPDM membranes includes those produced by the world's leading manufacturers of rubber materials. This includes brands such as Classic Bond, Firestone, and Resitrix.

Benefits of Rubber Roof Membranes

Water Resistance

These single-ply membranes can be installed as a large piece without the need for seams. This virtually eliminates the chance of nightmare leaks that typically occur where two materials meet. 

As they are produced from synthetic rubber, these membranes are incredibly flexible and durable. Therefore preventing tears from occurring during or after installation and provided further protection from water. 

UV Stable

Some roofing materials may blister or crack following exposure to ultraviolet. You may also suffer the consequences of thermal movement, which can result in membranes becoming saggy and unsightly. 

The same cannot be said for an EPDM membrane, which are able to withstand continuous exposure to UV without significant deterioration. This is of particular importance in the UK, where heatwaves are becoming more common.

Lightweight

Rubber roof membranes weigh between 1.5kg and 2kg per square meter. Making them ideal for almost any flat roof, whether it features a minimal timber frame or mighty steel supports. 

This makes EPDM suitable for various buildings, ranging from large garden buildings to small residential garages. It also makes them far easier to fit by both handy homeowners and experienced tradespeople. 

Bespoke Solution

An EPDM membrane is available in a choice of thicknesses between 1.2mm and 2.5mm thick. Providing you with a solution for your flat roof, whether you're looking to minimise cost or maximise longevity. 

You can also order a bespoke flat roof kit with our purposely built calculator. It will calculate the appropriate membrane size, accompanying trims and more with only a few measurements being required.
