Our Simple and Transparent Roof Installation Process

We believe that replacing a flat roof should be completely stress-free. Our process begins with a comprehensive, no-obligation survey of your property in Tonbridge. We carefully assess your current roof structure, looking for any signs of water ingress, rotting timber decking, or structural fatigue.Once we provide a transparent, itemised quote, our team schedules the work at a time that suits you. The installation involves stripping away the old felt or degraded covering, repairing the sub-decking if necessary, and laying the new EPDM membrane. Because rubber flat roofs are typically installed in a single, seamless piece, there are no joints or seams where water can penetrate. We finish by securing the perimeter with high-quality edge trims, leaving you with a sleek, highly durable roofing system.

Common Questions About Rubber Flat Roofs

How long does it take to install an EPDM rubber roof?Most standard residential flat roofs, such as a single garage or dormer extension, can be completely replaced and waterproofed in just one to two days, depending on the weather conditions and the health of the underlying timber decking.Is EPDM better than GRP fibreglass?Both are excellent, high-performance systems. EPDM is highly flexible, cost-effective, and brilliant for straightforward flat areas. GRP (fibreglass) is incredibly tough and can be moulded around complex architectural features. During your free survey, we will always recommend the best option for your specific property type.Can an EPDM roof be walked on safely?Yes, a professionally installed EPDM roof can easily withstand occasional foot traffic for essential maintenance purposes, such as window cleaning, inspecting leadwork, or clearing your gutters of autumn debris.

"Highly recommended! Great price! First class job. Nothing was too much for these lads, very polite, got the job done and more. When they had finished they cleaned up that well, even took some of my own rubbish away for me. Well done lads! Not often you get a good, honest local roofer anymore! Thanks again."

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.
