EPDM roofing, which is ethylene propylene diene monomer, also known as “rubber roofing” is a synthetic rubber roofing membrane. This is a popular roofing material often chosen for low slope roofs, commercial buildings, and flat roofs. EPDM roofs are extremely durable because of its rubber complex. Unlike other flat roof options, a rubber roof doesn’t need to be torched or require asphalt.
If your rubber roof gets damaged, you may need to call in a professional New Castle roofing contractor to help fix your EPDM roof.
There’s a few reasons that your rubber roof may be damaged, such as if it begins ponding water, membranes begin shrinking or uplifting, you have improper drainage systems on your rubber roof, moisture is getting trapped, dirt accumulating, aging of your roof, damage from UV rays, or bubbles and cracks.
There are additional benefits beyond rubber roofing’s ease of installation and long-term durability.
Life Cycle: A properly care for and maintained EPDM roof can last up to 30 years or longer.
Maintenance: A rubber roof is typically easier to care for, and more hands off without needing surface treatments regularly.
Withstands the Elements: Rubber roofs hold up remarkably well to storm activity such as hail, wind, rain, uv rays, and extreme temperature fluctuations.
Affordability: Many commercial building owners turn to a rubber roof because of its low price point. An EPDM roof generally will cost less than a TPO or PVC replacement, not only in materials but labor as well.
Eco-Friendly: Rubber roofs are considered to be a “green” roofing option because they have longer lifecycles, the thickness retains building warmth in the winter and reflects sun’s heat in the summer, and the majority of the material is recyclable.
EPDM roofs are truly an extremely sturdy and practical option for many New Castle building owners. One of the concerns with EPDM roofs is their ability to be punctured.

More Info
New Castle is a city in New Castle County, Delaware, six miles (10 km) south of Wilmington, situated on the Delaware River. According to the 2010 Census, the population of the city is 5,285.[4]
New Castle was originally settled by the Dutch West India Company in 1651, under the leadership of Peter Stuyvesant, on the site of a former aboriginal village, “Tomakonck” (“Place of the Beaver”), to assert their claim to the area based on a prior agreement with the aboriginal inhabitants of the area. The Dutch originally named the settlement Fort Casimir, but this was changed to Fort Trinity (Swedish: Trefaldighet) following its seizure by the colony of New Sweden on Trinity Sunday, 1654. The Dutch conquered the entire colony of New Sweden the following year and rechristened the fort Nieuw-Amstel (“New Amstel”). This marked the end of the Swedish colony in Delaware as an official entity, but it remained a semi-autonomous unit within the New Netherland colony and the cultural, social, and religious influence of the Swedish settlers remained strong. As the settlement grew, Dutch authorities laid out a grid of streets and established the town common (The “Green”), which continue to this day.

Reviews From Past Clients
Does it take long to replace a roof on a house?
Replacing a roof is a labor intensive project and depending upon the type, size and complexity of the roof it could take one day or a few days or more to complete. It also depends upon weather conditions. Bad weather always creates delays and hinders completion of the project.
Can you install roof shingles in winter?
Asphalt shingles can be installed properly in winter (late fall and winter) but only if some additional costly measures are taken. A specialized adhesive is needed to be manually applied to each shingle if the temperature is below 40 degrees Fahrenheit.
What is the minimum roof pitch for asphalt shingles?
The manufacturers say a 4/12 pitch is the minimum but the absolute minimum is 2/12. Pitch is measure in inches in vertical rise over one foot of horizontal run. So a 4/12 pitch roof rises 4 inches vertically for every 12 inches of horizontal run.
How long do asphalt shingles last?
Asphalt shingles can last up to 30 years. Wood shingles and shakes have a target lifetime of 30 years, but they can last much longer under moderate weather conditions.
What roof lasts the longest?
Material lifespan:
Wood Shake | 14-20 years |
Asphalt Shingle | 10-30 years (20 is the norm) |
Metal/Steel | 50+ years |
Slate | 50+ years |
Tile/Concrete | 50+ years |
Foam | 25+ years |
Built-Up (BUR) | 25-30 years |
Single-Ply | 30+ years |
So the metal, steel, tile, concrete and slate roofs last the longest. Asphalt, built-ups and single ply are the next longest lasting roofing material.
Are metal roofs noisy?
This may surprise you but metal roofs, when installed with solid sheathing, are actually quieter than asphalt roofs. These metal roofs, when installed properly, can actually silence the noise from rain, hail and other bad weather better than those other roofing materials.
Do metal roofs attract lightening?
No. Metal roofs do not attract lightening and are not struck any more often than any other roofing materials. People’s concern about metal roofs being hit by lightning strikes comes from the fact that metal can be an electrical conductor.
Bottom line, what is the cost to the homeowner?
If you have insurance and insurance is paying, then the homeowner’s cost is their deductable and any upgrades. Call for a free quote and check your insurance policy to see the amount of your deductable to help you know the costs involved.
Does my roof have to be replaced or can it be repaired?
The common thought is that a leaking roof has to be replaced, but this is not necessarily the solution unless it is very old. Those missing, cracked, broken, or curling shingles are able to be repaired and replaced to stop a leak without replacing the whole roof, while older roofs or roofs with many leaks or other issues should be replaced.
What is the cost to repair my roof?
Repair costs vary and depend upon the pitch of the roof, the kind of shingles used, the condition of it, and how many different layers of shingles are on the roof. The only way to know what the price is to have someone come out to your house and provide you with a free quote.
