Rubber Roofing & Waterproof Coatings FAQs
What is rubber roofing?
Known in the building trade as EPDM roofing (ethylene propylene diene terpolymer) roof, rubber roofing is made from rubber or plastic polymers (sometimes a combination of both).
Rubber roofing can be used on either pitched or flat roofs, but it is more common on flat roofs that are prone to water pooling. EPDM roofing helps the water run off quicker and is less likely to crack in extreme weather conditions when compared to asphalt.
Similarly, rubber roofing material offers excellent thermal shock resistance and will not crack or go brittle with heat. Likewise, EPDM roofing is equally as resistant to UV radiation.
How long does rubber roofing last?
Rubber roofing, also referred to as EPDM roofing, is exceptionally hard wearing and can easily last 30-50 years although manufacturer warranties tend to be around 25 years.
Rubber roofing requires very little maintenance as well. If installed correctly, in line with the manufacturer’s instructions, it is very unlikely to crack or leak. However, if you do experience any cracks outside of the warranty period, there is a wide range of rubber roofing sealants that can resolve the problem.
How is rubber roofing installed?
Rubber roofing is often far quicker to install than asphalt or slate roofing materials. The most efficient way to install EPDM roofing is in a seamless roll. With no seams, it is less likely to crack as there is nowhere for water to seep into.
Obviously, if you are installing rubber roofing shingles, these will need to be secured much like traditional shingles. However, if you are laying an EPDM roofing roll, you will need to trim it to the shape of your roof, making sure you allow for chimneys, rooflights etc…
Before laying the rubber roofing, you must clear the space beneath of dirt and debris and apply the correct adhesive before laying.
Of course, there is another option and that’s a liquid rubber roof. Liquid EPDM roofing can be applied by hand or sprayed on. The usual way to apply liquid rubber roofing though is to pour the liquid in a line over the area, and then spread it evenly with a specialist roller.
How long does rubber roofing last?
You can expect EPDM rubber roofing to last between 30 to 50 years. If installed properly the rubber roof membrane will protect a building even in the harshest of weather conditions. EPDM roofs that have passed UL tests are considerably tough, insulate properties efficiently, reflect UV rays, and withstand weather effects efficiently. Rubber roofing material is even durable enough to support rooftop gardens since it is incredibly good at locking moisture and preventing any bacterial or fungal growth.
Seamless sheets of rubber roof membrane require a good installation to make sure they perform as expected though. Therefore, you will need to choose the contractors who are proficiently trained in rubber roofing installation.
