Can the pavers be laid directly on rooftops covered with a rubber or bituminous membrane without damaging or puncturing the membrane?
A. The pressure on the paver base is normally distributed in such a way that no damage will occur. However if you wish to take additional precautions, then we suggest laying down a suitable geotextile mat before the tiles are laid. Although such fabric matting would probably be the lowest cost option, sometimes a building owner may require something more substantial as an extra safeguard. In that case the best alternative would probably be to lay down an EPDM sheet which costs from about 50c per sq.ft. and comes in continuous sheeting as large as 50′ x 100′.
