Commercial EPDM Roofing in Birmingham, Alabama

How we can help

Repair isolated damage or replace the roof

Some EPDM problems can be addressed with compatible repair materials and careful preparation. Broader deterioration or wet underlying materials may call for more extensive work.

We inspect the membrane, seams, flashing, and underlying materials before recommending repair, restoration, a new membrane over the existing roof, or full replacement.

What is EPDM?

EPDM is a synthetic rubber single-ply membrane used on low-slope roof assemblies.

Can an EPDM roof be patched?
