EPDM Rubber Roofing in Battersea
Battersea’s housing runs from the Victorian terraces between Clapham and Wandsworth Commons to mansion blocks near the park and new apartment buildings around the old power station. Slate roofs on terraced houses, rear dormers from loft conversions and flat roofs over kitchen extensions make up much of our work in SW11.
EPDM, short for ethylene propylene diene monomer, is a synthetic rubber roofing membrane with a track record of more than 40 years on low-slope roofs worldwide. It has one of the longest average service lives of any roofing system.
EPDM stands up to ozone, weathering, abrasion, wind and extremes of heat and cold, and it is quick to install, which keeps disruption to a minimum. It is also made using recycled material, which is better for the environment.
Most of the EPDM roofs we fit are on commercial premises and larger flat roofs, and we will always recommend the right system for your roof. For a free quote in Battersea, call 07467 757 367.

Upstands, edges and outlets are detailed carefully so the roof stays watertight where it meets walls and drains.

EPDM can be laid in large sheets, which means fewer joins on bigger roofs.
Repairs and Maintenance
We repair damaged EPDM and check outlets and flashings so small problems do not become leaks.

EPDM Rubber Roofs for Homes and Businesses in Battersea
Alongside its terraces, Battersea has mansion blocks near the park and new apartment buildings around the old power station, and these larger roofs are where we most often fit EPDM. The synthetic rubber membrane has been used across the industry for over 40 years and holds up well against ozone, weathering, extreme temperatures and wind.
EPDM comes in large sheets, so it can be laid quickly with very few joints, keeping disruption to residents and businesses to a minimum. It is a strong choice for commercial units and the bigger flat roofs on blocks of flats. We look at the drainage, upstands and edge details before recommending it, as those decide how well a flat roof performs. Our EPDM work also covers Nine Elms and Stockwell.
At around 15 miles from our Staines office, Battersea sits within our core area across South West London. Most like-for-like roof work does not need planning permission, but if your property is listed or in a conservation area it is worth checking with Wandsworth Council before work starts, and we are happy to talk this through with you.

EPDM is quick to install compared with many flat roofing systems. We will give you a timescale with your quote once we have seen the roof.
