Our team recently completed a full EPDM rubber roof replacement in Reading after the existing felt flat roofing system had failed and allowed moisture to track into the property.
Ollie and Shane carried out the works, replacing the ageing roof with a modern EPDM rubber roofing system complete with new insulation for improved durability and weather protection.
Failed Felt Flat Roof Causing Damp Issues
The original flat roof had deteriorated over time, allowing water ingress into the structure below.
During inspection we found:
• Failing felt roofing materials
• Signs of water penetration
• Deteriorated roof edges
• Poor thermal performance from outdated insulation
Once the existing covering was removed, the roof structure and insulation could be properly assessed and upgraded.
Installing the New EPDM Rubber Roofing System
After preparing the roof deck, new insulation boards and fresh decking were installed to create a solid base for the new roofing system.
The new EPDM membrane was then fitted across the flat roof area, creating a seamless and highly durable waterproof finish.
EPDM rubber roofing is a popular long-term solution because it offers:
• Excellent waterproof protection
• Long lifespan and durability
• Low maintenance requirements
• Improved resistance to UV and weathering
• Clean modern appearance
The Finished Result
The completed flat roof now provides the property with a much stronger and more reliable waterproof system.
The new EPDM rubber roof not only improves protection against future leaks but also helps improve insulation and overall roof performance.
A fantastic job completed by Ollie and Shane in Reading.
