Why choose a rubber roof?

Well, years ago the traditional way to waterproof a flat roof was to use a product called felt. Chances are you already have some version of a felt roof installed at the moment and it has failed. There are many reasons for this. The main one is that a felt roof mainly consists of metre wide strips of felt seamed together on your roof leaving you with lots of joins. The second is that a felt roof usually needs some variation of stone chippings to hide the base layer of bitumen from the sun. When the bitumen base layer heats up it begins to melt, and when the sun goes away it cools. Over time this causes the bitumen to crack and break down causing leaks. A rubber roof gets away from all this, coming in ONE sheet already pre-cut to the size of your roof; this means there are no seams required during the installation. A rubber roof does not require stones or aggregate of any kind to conceal it from the sun as it is a U.V stable product.

A Cheshire Waterproofing installed rubber roof carries a 20 year installation guarantee, alongside the 20 year manufacturers membrane warranty.

A comprehensive survey of your flat roof is undertaken before you are given a quotation. If it is necessary to remove and replace some or all of your existing roof deck it will be included in your quotation. Any other salient factors will also be picked up during the survey and you will be notified there and then of the best course of action.

A EPDM rubber roof is not going to cost a fortune a typical rubber roof installation is often cheaper than an equivalent felt roof installation.
