How long will and EPDM rubber roof last?
HOW LONG WILL AN EPDM RUBBER ROOF LAST?
An EPDM rubber roof is incredibly long-lasting and durable. The recycled rubber used for the synthetic rubber membrane isn’t damaged by the sun’s UV rays.
If installed correctly, you can expect a rubber roof to last up to 50 years.
HOW CAN I IMPROVE MY FLAT ROOF?
Simply installing a rubber roof with flashing tape will prevent your roof from being damaged for long. We also offer a range of products designed to divert rainwater from your flat roof to your drains properly. Check out our kits below:
What affects its durability
Because an EPDM flat roof is compromised of durable rubber, it can withstand extreme weather conditions such as hail or snow and common weather such as rain and strong winds.
Furthermore, if the rubber membrane is ever damaged, torn, or split, it’s incredibly easy to quickly repair. It requires minimal maintenance throughout its lifetime, making rubber roof membranes attractive for commercial and privately owned properties. They’re also incredibly cost-effective and generally have a longer lifespan than traditional materials such as asphalt or felt.
Rainwater doesn’t affect the properties of the rubber membrane, but we offer a range of accessories designed to drain excess water correctly, further protecting the structure of your roof. All our EPDM flat roofs come with a 25-year warranty to certified installers.
Unlike common, traditional materials such as tiles, slates, steel, or felt, the roof membrane isn’t vulnerable to rust or moss growing on it, nor will it tear, split, or crack.
