How Do You Install A Roof Rubber Membrane?
Flat roofing methods are susceptible to leaks caused by inflexibility, weathering, and failing joints. Ethylene propylene diene Monomer (EPDM) rubber roofing is the most effective solution for low slope and flat roofing surfaces. It is durable, UV resistant and doesn’t require an additional layer of surfacing like tar, gravel, or asphalt. Rubber roofing is also very lightweight, minimizing the effort required for installation. The minimal joints and seams eliminate the overall maintenance of a flat roof by maximizing insulation. Installing a rubber roof membrane can be done without professional service as long as the proper tools and precautions are applied. Prepare the surface of the roof by cleaning it before the rubber is laid. The best cleaning product to use is the one recommended by the manufacturer of the roofing shingles.
