EPDM stands for ethylene propylene diene monomer. It is a synthetic rubber membrane used as a roof covering, particularly on flat and low-slope roofs.
The membrane forms part of a complete roofing system. The supporting deck, drainage, edges and junctions all need to be suitable for the installation.
Although EPDM is often described as rubber roofing, it should not be confused with the insulation beneath a roof covering. Any insulation needs to be considered separately as part of the roof design. Contact Central Group today for your FREE quote.
Rubber roofing can be suitable for extensions, garages and other buildings with an appropriate roof construction. Suitability depends on the roof size, deck condition, drainage and details around adjoining walls or other features.
We discuss your building and the reasons you are considering a new covering. If repeated repairs have become a concern, we can assess whether replacement is the more practical approach.
Felt and asphalt are other flat roof coverings that may suit your property. We assess the construction and condition before recommending a system.
Preparation begins with assessing the existing roof. A damaged or unsuitable deck needs attention before a new covering is installed.
The membrane must be fitted using the appropriate system and finished carefully at edges, outlets and junctions. Those details are important to the weather protection provided by the roof.
We explain the proposed work before installation, including access requirements and the expected programme. Where the roof forms part of a larger project, the different stages need to be considered together.
A new covering is an opportunity to review the overall condition of the roof, including how rainwater leaves it. Standing water, blocked outlets or unsuitable levels need assessment.
For properties with several roof types, roofing repairs may be needed on adjoining tiled or slate sections as well as the rubber covering.
An EPDM covering needs suitable finishing around the roof edges. We can discuss the condition of adjoining roofline components when assessing your project.
Replacing worn soffits and fascias alongside the membrane can address related defects at the roof edges. Raising these issues early helps establish the full scope of the work.
Central Group are a family-run business based in Chesterfield. Our team have experience in roof installations and exterior improvements, and we work with you to agree a suitable approach.
We explain the options and keep you informed as the installation progresses. Our EPDM service covers Chesterfield and surrounding areas.
It may be suitable, but the existing construction needs assessment. We inspect the roof before advising on preparation and replacement.
The roof should still be checked for damage, debris and drainage problems. The appropriate care depends on the installed system and its surroundings.
Size, deck condition, insulation, access and finishing details affect the price. We provide a quote based on the assessed work.
