EPDM Roofing Installation
Looking for a roofing solution that’s tough, reliable, and built to last? EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) roofing, also known as rubber roofing, is a standout choice for low-slope and flat roofs, especially in commercial settings.
At Certified Roofing, we deliver peace of mind with expert EPDM roofing installation, maintenance, and repair services. Whether it’s a new installation or giving your current roof a fresh start, we’re here to make the process smooth, stress-free, and tailored to your needs.
What is EPDM Roofing?
EPDM is a synthetic rubber material known for its durability, versatility, and resistance to extreme weather conditions. It is one of the most sustainable and long-lasting roofing options available, making it an excellent option for commercial and industrial roofs.
The material comes in large sheets, which are then adhered, mechanically fastened, or ballasted to the roof deck to create a continuous, watertight membrane.
Advantages of EPDM Roofing
- Durability: EPDM roofs have an impressive lifespan, often exceeding 20 years with proper maintenance. The material is resistant to UV radiation, ozone, and extreme temperatures, maintaining its integrity over time.
- Weather Resistance: It is exceptionally resistant to rain, snow, and hail. Its elasticity allows it to expand and contract with temperature changes without cracking or becoming brittle.
- Low Maintenance: Once installed, this rubberized roofing requires minimal upkeep. Routine inspections and occasional cleaning are typically sufficient to ensure its longevity.
- Energy Efficiency: The material’s thermal properties contribute to reducing heating and cooling costs. Light-colored EPDM can reflect sunlight, while darker shades absorb heat, offering flexibility based on climate needs.
- Eco-Friendly: This unique roofing material is also an environmentally friendly option. It’s durable, reducing the frequency of replacement, and it is recyclable at the end of its life cycle.
How Is EPDM Roofing Installed?
At Certified Roofing, our EPDM roofing installation process is thorough and efficient, ensuring a high-quality, long-lasting roof. The process typically involves the following steps:
- Roof Inspection and Preparation: We assess the roof’s condition, preparing the surface by cleaning and removing debris to ensure optimal adhesion of the EPDM membrane.
- Membrane Installation: EPDM sheets are rolled out and either mechanically fastened, fully adhered, or ballasted to the roof deck. Seams between sheets are sealed with special adhesives or tape to create a watertight barrier.
- Detail Work: We pay meticulous attention to details, ensuring that areas around penetrations, edges, and drains are properly sealed to prevent leaks.
- Inspection and Quality Assurance: After installation, we conduct a thorough inspection to ensure the integrity and proper function of the roofing system.
