Frequently Asked Questions About EPDM Roofing

How long does an EPDM roof last?
EPDM roofs typically last 25–30 years or more when properly maintained.

Is EPDM better than TPO or PVC?
EPDM excels in durability and flexibility. TPO and PVC offer higher reflectivity and better chemical resistance. The best choice depends on your building’s environment.

Can EPDM be coated to extend its life?
Yes — roof coatings can improve energy efficiency and extend the lifespan of an older EPDM roof.

Does EPDM perform well in hot climates?
Yes. EPDM is highly resistant to UV rays and maintains flexibility in extreme heat.

Can EPDM be installed over an existing roof?
In many cases, yes — if the underlying roof is dry and structurally sound. We evaluate this during your assessment.

What Is EPDM Roofing?

EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) is a synthetic rubber roofing membrane designed specifically for flat and low-slope commercial roofs. Available in black or white, EPDM is known for its:

Exceptional flexibility in extreme heat or cold

Long-term weather resistance

Ability to accommodate building movement

Simple maintenance requirements

Because EPDM performs well in fluctuating temperatures and withstands years of UV exposure, it is especially popular for large buildings that require reliable, low-maintenance protection.
