RUBBER ROOFING SERVICE IN EDINBURGH

EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) is a highly durable synthetic rubber membrane recognised as a premium solution for flat roofs. It is superior because it offers exceptional longevity, often boasting a lifespan of 50 years or more, and is fully resistant to damaging UV radiation and ozone. Crucially for the UK climate, the rubber remains highly flexible even in freezing temperatures, allowing it to adapt to building movement without cracking or failing, guaranteeing long-term structural protection.

We ensure watertight integrity through a precise, expert installation process. The EPDM material is often supplied in large, single sheets, which dramatically minimises the number of seams—the most common point of failure in traditional systems. Our experienced technicians then guarantee flawless preparation and application, using specialised bonding agents and meticulous detailing around all edges and penetrations, effectively creating a seamless, monolithic membrane over your property.

No, one of the greatest advantages of EPDM rubber roofing is that it is remarkably low-maintenance. The material’s inherent resistance to weathering, moss, and algae means minimal upkeep is required. Typically, all that is needed is an annual visual inspection and clearing of any large debris that may have collected to ensure proper drainage, making it a very cost-effective choice for property owners in Edinburgh.

We provide comprehensive services for both. Our EPDM roofing solutions are ideal for new installations, but the material is also highly effective for repairing and overlaying many existing flat roof systems. Our team can assess your current roof and, if the underlying structure is sound, often apply the new rubber membrane directly over the old surface, providing a robust, long-lasting watertight solution without the need for a full, disruptive tear-off.
