EPDM Rubber Roofing in Kingston upon Thames
Kingston upon Thames mixes Victorian and Edwardian homes, riverside apartments and busy town-centre commercial buildings. We work on pitched tile and slate roofs, flat roofs on extensions and shops, and chimney repairs on period properties.
EPDM stands for ethylene propylene diene monomer, a synthetic rubber 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.
The membrane resists ozone, weathering, abrasion, extreme temperatures and wind damage, and installation is quick, so buildings can stay in use with little disruption. 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 Kingston upon Thames, call 07467 757 367.

EPDM is a synthetic rubber membrane with over 40 years of use in the roofing industry. It resists ozone, weathering, extreme temperatures and wind, which helps it stand up to exposed roofs by the river and in the town centre. It can be installed quickly, so businesses and residents face less disruption while the work is carried out. We will assess the roof structure, drainage and condition before recommending EPDM, and for smaller domestic roofs we may suggest GRP instead. Commercial owners and managing agents in Surbiton can also ask about EPDM.
