Rubber flat roofing repairs
EPDM repairs should confirm whether the leak is from the membrane, seam, outlet, trim or upstand. The repair method depends on the membrane age and the condition of the adjoining details.

What is epdm rubber roofing best for?
EPDM Rubber Roofing is suited to flexible rubber membrane roofs, extensions, garages and roof areas where sheet detailing can be kept clean and well terminated. A survey confirms whether the existing deck, falls and drainage can support the recommended approach.
Can a leaking flat roof be repaired?
A leak can often be repaired when the membrane and deck are otherwise sound. Widespread splits, trapped moisture, failed falls or rotten decking may point towards replacement.
What defects should be checked?
The inspection should look for punctures, failed trims, outlet detailing, shrinkage, adhesive failure and awkward upstand junctions, plus hidden moisture where the roof has leaked more than once.
How do you decide between repair and replacement?
The decision depends on the age of the covering, the number of defects, insulation build-up, drainage performance, safe access and whether previous patch repairs have failed.
Which flat roofing system is right?
EPDM is useful where a flexible sheet membrane suits the roof size, edge details and outlet layout. GRP, felt, EPDM and single ply all have useful roles when specified for the roof size, use and detailing.
Do you work on commercial flat roofs?
Yes. Flat roof surveys, repairs, planned replacement and maintenance can support shops, schools, healthcare buildings, local authority property and low-rise commercial units.
