Expert EPDM Rubber Roofing in Dartford

At Kevington Roofing and Building LTD, we believe in doing the job right the first time. Our seamless installation process begins long before we lay the new rubber membrane. We start with a comprehensive assessment, often utilising advanced drone roof surveys to safely inspect the current condition of your roof without the need for immediate scaffolding.Once we have agreed on a transparent plan of action, our directly employed fitters will arrive on-site. The first step involves carefully stripping away the old, failing felt and inspecting the underlying timber decking. If we spot any signs of rot or structural water ingress, we will repair or replace the timber to ensure a solid, secure base for your new roof.Next, we apply the EPDM rubber membrane. As experienced local installers, we use premium adhesives to secure the rubber smoothly to the decking, expertly finishing the edges with custom trims to ensure maximum kerb appeal and water diversion. Finally, we conduct a rigorous quality check and clear away all debris, leaving your property spotless and protected.

How long does an EPDM rubber roof actually last?When installed correctly by skilled professionals, an EPDM rubber roof can easily last over 50 years. It is incredibly durable, highly resistant to UV rays, and will not dry out or crack like traditional felt.Is EPDM better than traditional roofing felt?Yes. Traditional felt relies on multiple layers and heat-sealed seams, which create weak points where water can eventually enter. EPDM is laid as a single, seamless sheet that offers superior weatherproofing and requires virtually no maintenance.Can a rubber flat roof be repaired if damaged?Absolutely. While it is exceptionally tough and highly resistant to punctures, if a branch or severe storm does cause damage, EPDM is very straightforward to patch and repair. We provide prompt emergency roof repairs to secure your property quickly if the unexpected happens.
