How do you know if your rubber roofing needs repair?
You don’t have to get up on a ladder to check your roof for holes. Often, you can tell from the inside of your house. You probably need to call for roof repair services if you notice:
- A drip in your attic.
- Daylight coming through your attic ceiling.
- Water stains on your ceiling or walls.
FAQs: EPDM Roofing
EPDM is the abbreviation for ethylene propylene diene monomer, a synthetic rubber roof membrane that has a reputation for high performance and durability on low-slope roofs.
Unlike shingles, EPDM membranes are seamless and watertight, which makes them highly effective for flat or low-slope roofing where water runs off is minimal.
A well-installed EPDM roof can last over 30 years, and certain systems may go up to 50 years with proper maintenance.
Depending on the building and climate, EPDM roofing can be installed fully adhered, mechanically attached, or ballasted.
EPDM performs satisfactorily in hot weather, below-zero temperatures, hail storms, and sunlight exposure, so it’s reliable in just about any climate.
While EPDM is low-maintenance, periodic checks are helpful to identify minor problems before they become costly ones.
EPDM is stronger and tested and true than TPO, and TPO is more reflective. The correct one depends on climate, budget, and energy goals.
Yes. EPDM is simple to repair and patch, making it able to have its life prolonged without requiring a new roof installation.
EPDM can be recycled, long-lasting, and assists with energy efficiency, making it a green option for roofing projects.
Although black EPDM becomes hot, white EPDM membranes are reflective as white paint and may reduce cooling expenses in warm climates.
Yes. Certain EPDM products have cold-weather flexibility, allowing installation year-round.
Look for water intrusion, bubbles, membrane tears, or seams that are visible splitting apart—these call for inspection or repair.
