Advantages

Rubber roofing minimizes maintenance while ensuring a long lifespan. Experts highlight 10 main advantages of this material:

Vapor permeability

Moisture that accumulates in the roofing structure evaporates outward, preventing condensation from settling. Thanks to high vapor permeability, the surface does not deform.

Waterproofing

The tiny pores, through which vapor passes, are impenetrable to external moisture. Rainwater cannot get under the covering unless there are cracks or seam damage.

Durability

The average lifespan of these materials reaches 50 years, and with proper care, it can last longer. Rubber does not decompose, does not fade under ultraviolet light, and is not damaged by hail, heavy rain, or snowstorms.

Lightweight

The material is lightweight, and one layer is sufficient for reliable coverage.

Temperature resistance

Membrane roofs can withstand Arctic cold and the heat of the tropical equator.

Safety

Soft roofs have a high level of fire safety.

Versatility

Rubber material can be applied to wooden, concrete, or metal surfaces. It can be applied over an old layer that cannot be removed.

Flexibility

The material can easily adapt to structures of any shape and size during installation, even to small protruding elements.

Eco-friendliness

Materials are made from recycled materials and can be recycled again.

Cost-effectiveness

Maintenance requires minimal costs. Possible leaks can be sealed with sealants, and small damages do not require re-roofing.

Membrane rolls can be used at any time of the year, regardless of the outside temperature.

Types of Rubber Roofing We Use

Our company offers three types of rubber coatings from leading manufacturers:

 

  • PVC (Polyvinyl chloride)
    There are several types of materials, differing mainly in installation methods. Polymer strips can be welded together by heating the edges — this is how thermoreactive membranes are joined. Modified versions do not require additional equipment; seams form a unified whole through chemical modifiers. When using the thermoplastic type, polymer density ensures the strength of the seams.

     

  • EPDM (Synthetic rubber)
    The seams are processed using vulcanization. No open flame is used, making this process safe and suitable for all weather conditions.

     

  • TPO (Thermoplastic olefins)
    Rubber roofing with a reinforced mesh inside. This layer provides additional strength. A construction heat gun is used during installation. The heating ensures the airtight bonding of seams.

Importance of Regular Roof Inspections

Rubber roofing is low-maintenance and does not require additional servicing. However, cracks, small holes, and seam wear can appear over time. Without regular inspections, small repairs can be missed.
We recommend regular inspections to detect when the rubber shows signs of:

  • Bulging

     

  • Delamination

     

  • Decay

     

  • Cracks

     

  • Tears

     

  • Softening

Membrane roofing is not affected by pests, mold, fungi, or corrosion. It will last for years without costly maintenance if you address:

 

  • Clogged drainage systems

  • Accumulation of debris

     

  • Dirt

     

  • Puddles

How often should I check my rubber roof?

To extend the lifespan of membrane roofing, we recommend inspecting it twice a year. The first inspection should be in the fall, before preparing the house for the cold season.
