Flat Roof Repairs in Nottingham

If you need to repair or replace a leaking flat roof, garage, dormer, extension, porch or bay windows or you intend to build a flat roof, you need the right product. Choosing Firestone EPDM rubber covering that is not affected by atmospheric pollution or UV light, is impervious to water ingress, and yet vapour permeable. Firestone EPDM roofing product that is economical, long lasting and one that will save you money.

A Firestone EPDM rubber roof is designed in a way that flashing material needs to be glued around the corners and around roof penetrations with a special adhesive. This presents a problem from the outset, because this adhesive will eventually fail and the seams will start coming apart. To prevent this issue from happening or to repair it, an EPDM rubber roof needs repair at the seams, process known as “reseaming”.

Another related issue is that many roofing contractors who install an EPDM rubber roof do not allow enough time for the flashing material to stretch during the installation. As a result, the flashing self -pulls, breaking the adhesive. This in turn creates areas where water and moisture can easily penetrate the roof and damage it, also requiring repair, or in worst cases roof replacement. Faulty installation may cause a rubber roof to leak rather unexpectedly and very shortly after the new roof has been installed.

Why do EPDM rubber roofs have these installation problems?

The reason is simple: while proper installation does not require any special equipment, it does require specific technical knowledge and skills. However, despite the fact that an EPDM roof is a specialized type of roofing and therefore should be installed by expert flat roofing installers, it is instead usually installed by general roofing contractors who primarily have experience with asphalt shingle roofs. Ironically, general contractors are able to take on EPDM roofing installation and repair jobs, which they are not qualified to do, precisely because EPDM roofing does not require any special expensive equipment. This is a big issue in the residential flat roofing market, as all the expert installers typically deal with commercial and industrial installations, and do not take on small residential flat roofing jobs. NGR Roofing are specialists in Firestone EPDM repairs and installations.
