EPDM rubber roofing is a durable, waterproof material designed for both a long life span and reliability, making it one of the most popular flat roof systems installed in Suffolk and Nassau County.

EPDM is one of the most popular and widely used flat roof systems installed in both Suffolk and Nassau County today. Long Island commercial flat roofs are ideal for an EPDM system.

What does EPDM stand for?

EPDM stands for ethylene propylene diene terpolymer. It’s main two ingredients, ethylene and propylene, are derived from oil and natural gas. EPDM comes in variety of widths for easy application and it can be installed either fully adhered, mechanically attached or ballasted, with the seams of the roofing system sealed with liquid adhesives or specially formulated tape. 

The Many layers of EPDM:

Did you know that rubber is not just rubber?

The top surface layer is where the reflectivity or absorption of heat occurs depending on its color of black or white.

The next layer is reinforced with a polyester fabric for its tactile strength. EPDM is very hard to rip! 

The AFR layer is next which keeps the membrane fire retardant. 

The last and final layer is Elastomeric. This gives it a flexibility but is also resistant to frost, extreme heat and UV rays. 

Life Expectancy

EPDM can last 20-50 years depending on product, installation and preventative roof maintenance.

I use Clearview Roofing for all my roofing needs and recently needed a gutter replaced. I called them on Monday, they completed the job on Wednesday and did a great job as usual. Kevin and the team are always very responsive and can be relied on to do a great job at a fair price.

CLEARVIEW Roofing repaired the white aluminum fascia molding that blew off with the recent storm we had. I called and spoke to Chris. After talking to him on the telephone I texted him photos of the aluminum that needed to be replaced. In no time he responded with an estimate that was fair and reasonable. A crew arrived the next day to do the work. Great Job!! Well done! I highly recommend Clearview Roofing!!
