New EPDM Rubber Roof Installed in Wrexham

A worn and weathered flat roof can soon become a source of leaks and ongoing repair bills. Recently, we completed another flat roof replacement in Wrexham, removing an old felt roof and installing a new EPDM rubber roofing system to provide the homeowner with a long-lasting, low-maintenance solution.

The photographs show the condition of the roof before work began and the finished result after installation.

The Existing Roof

The original felt roof had reached the end of its serviceable life. The surface showed signs of age and deterioration, with worn coverings, loose chippings and areas where water could eventually become a problem.

Rather than carrying out another temporary repair, the customer decided it was time for a complete replacement.

Removing the Old Felt Roof

Our first step was to strip away the existing felt roofing material and remove any loose debris from the roof deck.

Once the old covering had been removed, the roof structure was carefully inspected to ensure it provided a suitable base for the new roofing system. Any preparation work was completed before the new membrane was installed.

Installing a New EPDM Rubber Roof

The new roof was finished using a single-piece EPDM rubber membrane.

EPDM rubber roofing is a popular choice for flat roofs because it offers:

  • Excellent resistance to rain, frost and UV exposure.
  • Very few joints, reducing the risk of leaks.
  • A clean, modern appearance.
  • Low maintenance requirements.
  • A long service life when professionally installed.

The completed roof now provides a neat, watertight finish that will protect the property for many years.

Why Replace an Old Felt Roof?

Older felt roofs often begin to fail through cracking, blistering or splitting as they age. While small repairs can sometimes extend their life, there comes a point where replacement becomes the more cost-effective option.

Installing a new EPDM rubber roof removes the ongoing cycle of repairs and provides reliable protection against the weather.
