EPDM stands for ethylene propylene diene monomer. This roofing system has been proven throughout decades to be durable and highly cost-effective, making it a great option for your roof.
Whether you choose EPDM for your home or for your commercial property, there is no shortage of benefits to choosing EPDM for your roofing needs. Here are some of the reasons why EPDM is the best choice for your rubber roofing needs:
On cost per square foot, EPDM sits just below SBS and above PVC and TPO — systems that each have their own use cases. That middle ground is exactly what makes EPDM the smart, all-round choice for most flat roofs.
EPDM is one of the most cost-effective roofing materials to install/repair, striking the best balance of price and performance. In addition it’s a long-lasting material with a 20–50 year lifespan, depending on weather exposure and yearly maintenance.
Rubber roofing is hail and ozone resistant, which is a huge advantage in Calgary, which gets more than 300+ sunny days throughout the year.
We don’t compromise with your roof’s integrity, hence we use Firestone EPDM with the following thickness: 40mil, 60 and 90mil.
EPDM, or Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer, refers to a type of rubber roofing that is very popular among commercial establishments for a number of reasons. EPDM is lightweight, but highly durable, which makes it highly adaptable to all kinds of extreme temperature changes and weather conditions.
