What Is EPDM Rubber Roofing?
EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) roofing is a single-ply synthetic rubber membrane, supplied and fitted in large sheets to keep joints to a minimum. It’s a well-regarded modern choice for flat roofs on extensions, garden rooms, garages and larger commercial buildings.
The rubber membrane is known for its resistance to UV light, ozone and everyday weathering, and it stays flexible in both hot and cold conditions rather than becoming brittle – helping it hold up well over time with relatively little maintenance once it’s fitted.
