Why Choose EPDM Over Traditional Felt Flat Roofs?

For decades, homeowners have battled with blistering, cracking, and leaking felt flat roofs. EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber roofing completely changes the standard for property protection. This modern, eco-friendly material is specifically engineered to withstand extreme temperature fluctuations without splitting or deteriorating.A professionally installed EPDM rubber roof comes with an incredible life expectancy of up to 50 years. We use premium, industry-leading materials like Elevate and Firestone EPDM, ensuring a seamless, watertight finish. Because the rubber roof membrane is often fitted in a single sheet, there are no vulnerable joints or seams for water ingress to exploit. It is the perfect long-term solution for residential extensions, dormers, and balconies, immediately boosting both the kerb appeal and thermal efficiency of your property.

Our EPDM Flat Roof Installation Process

Every home is different, whether you live in a historic Medway property or a modern build. That is why our flat roof installation process begins with a thorough structural assessment. We frequently utilise advanced drone roof surveys to inspect your current roof deck safely and accurately without immediate need for scaffolding.Once we understand the condition of the underlying timber and insulation, our expert team strips back the old, failed materials. If your decking has been compromised by water ingress or rot, we replace it to ensure a solid, safe foundation. We then install the new EPDM rubber roof membrane using high-quality adhesives and custom edge trims. This creates a highly durable roofing system that integrates flawlessly with your existing roofline, including your UPVC fascias, soffits, and guttering.Ready to upgrade your property?

What are the benefits of a rubber roof replacement?

It is highly resistant to UV rays, ozone, and severe British weather, making it one of the most durable roofing systems available on the market.Will a new flat roof improve my home's insulation?Yes. During a flat roof replacement, we can easily upgrade your internal or external insulation to meet current UK building regulations.

EPDM Roofing FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions about EPDM rubber roofing? With 25 years of industry experience installing and repairing durable flat roofs, the expert team at Kevington Roofing and Building LTD has compiled answers to our most common homeowner enquiries across Swanley, Sevenoaks, and Croydon & South London.

Is EPDM rubber roofing more expensive than traditional felt?

+

The initial cost can be slightly higher than felt, but it works out much cheaper over time. Because a rubber roof lasts three to four times longer and requires almost zero maintenance, you save a significant amount of money in the long run. Most Swanley homeowners find the one-time investment is well worth the decades of protection it offers.

Can I walk on an EPDM roof to clean windows or maintain my house?

+

Yes, EPDM is very durable and can handle occasional foot traffic for maintenance purposes. If you plan to use the area as a balcony or roof terrace, we can install a thicker membrane or specific walking pads to protect the surface.

How long does it take to install a new rubber roof on a standard extension in Kent?

+

Most domestic projects, such as a garage or a medium-sized extension, can be completed in just one or two days. Because there is no "hot work" involved (no flames or melting bitumen), the process is faster and safer than older methods. We always check the weather forecast to make sure your home stays dry throughout the swap.
