Rubber Roofs in Worcester

One Sheet of EPDM, No Joints

An EPDM rubber roof covers most domestic flat roofs in Worcester in a single sheet, so there are no seams across the field of the roof for water to find. We bond it to new decking and finish the edges with trims made for the system.

EPDM is a synthetic rubber membrane supplied on the roll in large sizes, so most domestic flat roofs are covered with one piece and no joints across the main area. It stays flexible in cold weather, moves with the timber as it expands and shrinks, and is not broken down by sunlight the way older bitumen coverings are. We fit RubberCover, an EPDM system made for UK roofs with its own adhesives, trims and accessories.

Rubber is a good fit for garages, single-storey extensions and dormers where the roof is a simple shape and does not get regular foot traffic. Because it is bonded with adhesive rather than a torch, it also suits roofs close to timber cladding, plastic roof lights or anywhere a flame would be a worry. It is less suited to balconies and roof terraces, where a harder surface takes wear better.
