EPDM Rubber Roof roofing in West Molesey

KT8Elmbridge

EPDM (rubber) is our default for larger flat roofs — single-sheet installs, no field seams, and a service life that comfortably outlives mineral felt. EPDM rubber isn't the most common cover in West Molesey (that's natural slate on the Edwardian terraces), but it shows up on extensions, garages and replacement roofs across KT8.

What goes wrong with epdm rubber here

  • Mechanical failure from foot traffic (ladders, satellite installs)
  • Adhesive failure if laid in cold or damp conditions
  • Edge trim leaks when fascia kerbs are skimped

Our approach: We use 1.2 or 1.5 mm Firestone-grade EPDM with proper kerbs, drip trims and warm-roof surface insulation — not the thin glue-and-go kits.
