As with many countries across the world we have traditionally covered our flat roofs with bituminous felt, and due to the unreliable nature of bituminous felt we have to regularly keep recovering our flat roofs. As we all know felt roofs can have a very limited life span.
Well, we don’t have to do this anymore! Install an EPDM rubber roof covering and never have to re-cover it again!
Over a billion square metres have been installed worldwide over the past 40-years.
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber roof coverings offer the following benefits.
Safe to install, no hot bitumen or naked flames
Odourless installation with no dangerous fumes
Proven 40-year plus lifespan, 20-year warranty
Installation costs comparable with bituminous felt
Inert environmentally friendly materials that are 100% recyclable.
PREVIOUS PROJECTS
We are able to provide an excellent, long lasting, flat roofing solutions using top quality, long lasting EPDM single-ply membranes.
EXAMPLES
Domestic residence in Monmouth, South Wales - Our works consisted of the removal of existing concrete paving and roof covering back to a smooth concrete surface. Rigid polyurethane insulation was then adhered to the concrete surface to help reduce heat loss during the winter and heat gain during the summer with Rubberbond Fleeceback EPDM single-ply membrane installed over providing the owner with a 20-year warranty.
Garage in Bristol - Our works consisted of the removal of existing roof coverings and chipboard decking. New 18mm thick exterior structural grade plywood was then installed followed by Rubberbond Fleeceback EPDM single-ply membrane. Our works also included the renewal of fascia boards, gutter and rainwater pipe all covered by a 20-year warranty.
Roof areas that are to be used as balconies require a suitable surface to allow this. AquaGard Roofing Solutions can provide a range of surface finishes to suit most applications and tastes.
Textured concrete paving installed over raised support pads allow rainwater to effectively drain between and under each paver eliminating ponding water providing a durable all-weather surface.
Glass reinforced cement (GRC) tiles can be bonded to the roof surface to provide a durable non-slip hard surface.
Timber decking can also be installed above the new roof covering. This again allows effective roof drainage below eliminating ponding water providing a modern aesthetically pleasing all-weather surface.
Below are other examples of EPDM flat roof solutions for residential properties.
