A Roof Built to Endure

For decades, EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) has been one of the most trusted and widely used materials for low-slope commercial roofing.

Why Choose EPDM

The Proven Advantages of an EPDM Roof

EPDM's simple composition and straightforward application process have made it a top choice for building owners for over 50 years.

Superior Durability

EPDM is exceptionally resistant to punctures, tears, and abrasions. Its synthetic rubber compound provides excellent protection against hail and damage from foot traffic.

Extreme Flexibility

The membrane remains highly flexible even in extreme temperatures, allowing it to expand and contract with the building without cracking or splitting, which is crucial for long-term performance.

Long Service Life

A properly installed and maintained EPDM roof can last 30 years or more, making it one of the longest-lasting single-ply roofing systems available.

Cost-Effective

With a lower price point for materials and a relatively fast installation process, EPDM offers one of the best long-term values in the commercial roofing market.

Expert Installation

Expert Installation for a Watertight Seal

The performance of an EPDM system depends on the quality of the installation. Our certified crews ensure every step is done right.

1

Substrate Preparation

We ensure the roof deck is clean, dry, and stable. New insulation or a cover board is installed to provide a smooth surface for the membrane.

2

Membrane Adhesion

The large EPDM sheets are rolled out and attached using one of three methods: mechanically attached, fully adhered with bonding adhesive, or ballasted with pavers or stone.

3

Seam Sealing

This is a critical step. We use specialized seam tape and primers to create strong, waterproof bonds between the EPDM sheets.

4

Detail Work & Flashing

We meticulously flash and seal all roof penetrations, such as pipes, vents, and HVAC curbs, to ensure these vulnerable areas are completely watertight.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions About EPDM Roofing

Your EPDM Questions, Answered

Is EPDM only available in black?
While black is the most common and cost-effective option, EPDM is also available in white. White EPDM offers similar reflective, energy-saving properties to TPO and PVC, making it a great choice for Georgia's climate.
How is an EPDM roof repaired?
EPDM is highly repairable. Damage can be fixed by cleaning the area, applying a special primer, and adhering a patch of EPDM material over the puncture or tear.
Is a rubber roof noisy when it rains?
Not at all. When installed over a proper substrate like high-density ISO board, an EPDM roof is very quiet. If a ballasted system is used, it's virtually silent.
How does EPDM compare to TPO?
Both are excellent single-ply systems. EPDM has a longer track record and is known for its superior flexibility and durability. TPO's main advantage is its heat-welded seams and inherent energy efficiency in its standard white color. We can help you choose the best option for your specific building and budget.
