What is EPDM roofing?
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) is a single-ply rubber roofing membrane widely used on flat and low-slope commercial roofs. It’s prized for its outstanding weather resistance, long-term flexibility, and ability to handle extreme temperatures without cracking or splitting. EPDM membranes are typically black, which helps them resist UV degradation and perform reliably for decades, with seams sealed using advanced adhesives or seam tapes for a strong, watertight finish.
Savings on installation costs compared to some other single-ply systems, making EPDM one of the most budget-friendly roofing options available.
Years is the typical lifespan of a professionally installed EPDM roof, delivering dependable, low-maintenance protection year after year.

Many property owners appreciate that EPDM continues to perform with minimal maintenance needs, making it a reliable, long-term solution that delivers solid value throughout its lifespan.
Not at all. One of the biggest advantages of EPDM is how easy it is to repair or adapt, even years after installation.
