WHY CHOOSE EPDM RUBBER ROOFING?
Rubber roofing is not suitable for all buildings but is commonly seen on commercial structures with flat roofs. Rubber roofing can also be used on residential homes with low sloping roofs and flat roofing areas, such as some porch and garage roofs.
At Rain , we work with EPDM roofing. EPDM (ethylene propylene diene terpolymer) is an extremely durable synthetic roofing material. This type of rubber roofing is done using a waterproof elastomeric membrane strong enough to withstand impacts, punctures, and weathering.
EPDM roofing is generally economical to install and easy to maintain. It provides for low maintenance costs, low repair costs, and is durable even in commercial situations where there is a high degree of rooftop foot traffic.
Rubber roofing is also energy efficient. It acts as an insulator in winter, helping to keep your building warm and it is breathable, allowing heat to escape in summer.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
Common problems with rubber roofing often stem from improper installation. The EPDM rubber is applied in rolls and must be properly layered and sealed in order to create a waterproof barrier. Failure to properly configure and adhere the rubber at corners, walls, and around drains are typical failure points.
At Rain Roofing and Solar, we have completed rubber roofing jobs for homes and businesses throughout the Pittsburgh region. Our expert rubber roofing crews and project managers are honest, experienced, and reliable. We guarantee your satisfaction.
