Rubber Roofs
The first synthetic rubber roofing membrane was developed
in the U.S.A. almost 50 years ago and original roofs are
still functioning. This suggests a product life expectancy
well in excess of 50 years. Over 2 Billion square meters
of membrane have been laid worldwide, from the heat of the
Middle east to the cold of the Arctic.
Although slightly more expensive than traditional bitumised
felt, it compares very favourably in price, with other higher
quality flat roofing products.
EPDM is designed for maintenance access, so it's OK to
walk on it. Should you require regular foot traffic or patios
etc. there are various methods of covering the membrane
with more durable finishes, ie. Paving slabs, purpose made
walkways, decking, etc. for patios walk ways and sun decks.
