COMMERCIAL ROOFING IN MISSOURI
EPDM roofing
EPDM is the black rubber single-ply still in service on many commercial buildings here. We inspect the seams and flashings, repair what will hold, and replace the system when it is time.

What this work involves
EPDM is a thermoset rubber membrane. Seams and flashings are typically taped or adhered, not heat-welded the way TPO and PVC are. Age, shrinkage and failed seams are the usual reasons we get called. We do not pretend every EPDM roof should be coated or replaced on a fixed schedule; the inspection decides.
- Seam, flashing and penetration repairs
- Inspection of shrinkage, bridging and open laps
- Replacement with EPDM or with another system when that is the better scope

Questions
- Can a leaking EPDM roof be repaired?
- Often, if the sheet still has life and the failure is a seam, a flashing or a puncture. If the membrane has shrunk or cracked across large areas, we will say so and write a replacement scope instead.
- Do you coat EPDM?
- A coating is a separate scope and only when the existing membrane will accept it. See roof coatings. We will not recommend a coating as a way to hide a membrane that should come off.
