Enhance Exteriors recently completed a comprehensive exterior renovation project in Baldock. Initially, our team was tasked with replacing the fascia and guttering on a lower-level flat roof area. Yet, upon closer inspection, we discovered significant damage to the underlying roofing felt. There were multiple tears and signs of water ingress.
To prevent further damage, we recommended a full flat roof repair. This would guarantee the long-term integrity of the roof before proceeding with the fascia and guttering replacement. Our client agreed. We promptly removed the damaged roofing felt. We replaced it with a high-quality EPDM rubber roofing membrane. We also replaced the deteriorated decking boards to give a solid foundation for the new roofing system.
Benefits of EPDM Rubber Roofing
EPDM rubber roofing is a popular choice for flat roofs due to its many advantages:
- Durability: EPDM is highly resistant to extreme weather conditions, including UV rays, ozone, and temperature fluctuations.
- Waterproofing: Its seamless, monolithic membrane effectively prevents water penetration, minimizing the risk of leaks and water damage.
- Long Lifespan: With proper installation and maintenance, EPDM roofs can last for 20-30 years or more.
- Low Maintenance: EPDM requires minimal upkeep, making it a cost-effective choice for homeowners.
We addressed the underlying roof issues. Then, we installed a durable, long-lasting EPDM roofing system. As a result, we provided our client with a thorough and reliable solution.
