Flat roofing in the UK has been around for a long time. Traditionally it has been carried out using bituminous felt, but because of the constant need for re roofing the market is changing very quickly. The demand for longer term flat roofing is on the increase, and that’s where Firestone EPDM plays a major part.
The most common area for leaks in a flat roof system is usually due to joints in the felt. Firestone EPDM is supplied and fitted in literally 1 piece as it is available in large panel sizes.
In the past flat roofing was very popular in construction as it was a cheaper alternative to a pitch roof. Particularly in the 60’s and 70’s where there were millions of square meters carried out. It is this market where Firestone EPDM really comes into its own. More and more of these flat roofs are being replaced with the far superior system of EPDM. Already over 1 billion square meters have been installed across the globe.
