about
EPDM ROOFING
What does EPDM mean?
Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer
Is Firestone EPDM rubber suitable for my roof?
Almost certainly... there are very few instances when Firestone
EPDM cannot be installed.
What does it look like?
A Firestone EPDM roof looks a dark grey, very similar to a large
piece of lead.
Can I walk on my new roof?
Yes, it is designed for maintenance access. Also, because the roof
is not covered with sharp chippings, you won't need to keep scooping
them out of your gutter.
Is Firestone EPDM expensive?
No. Despite its considerable technical and lifespan advantages,
Firestone EPDM compares very well indeed to traditional materials.
Is your work guaranteed?
Our Firestone EPDM roofs are guaranteed against leakage for 20 years.
We also offer an optional 10 year Insurance Backed guarantee.
Who else uses EPDM?
EPDM is currently protecting roofs for:
Honda, Ford, McDonalds, ESSO, Rover, Center Parcs, Jaguar, Peugeot
Talbot, ICL, TAG-Mclaren, Marks and Spencer, Toyota, Eurodisney, Goodyear,
Coca-Cola.
If Firestone EPDM is so superior, why isn't everyone using
it?
The product manufacturers have a very strong branding that has taken
years to establish. Consequently, only approved installers that have
proved they can maintain the high standards required are allowed to
use the materials and be recognised as an authorised contractor.
