What is EPDM Roofing?
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) is a synthetic rubber roofing material known for its durability and weather resistance. It’s typically black or white in color and can come in various thicknesses to suit different applications. Used widely in commercial buildings and increasingly popular in residential homes, EPDM’s high resistance to UV rays, temperature extremes, and frequent rain makes it ideal for New England’s varied climate.
The Types of Structures That Use EPDM Roofing
EPDM roofing is a versatile and affordable roofing material, making it suitable for various types of buildings:

Commercial Buildings
Due to its durability and easy maintenance, EPDM is a popular choice for commercial buildings like offices and retail stores.

Residential Homes
More homeowners are choosing EPDM for its energy efficiency and modern aesthetic appeal. It’s also a relatively low-cost option.

Industrial Facilities
EPDM’s resistance to extreme weather conditions makes it ideal for industrial buildings in Boston and other areas with seasonal climates.
EPDM’s Alternatives and Comparisons
EPDM, or rubber, roofing is a preferred roofing material here at Crown Contracting. However, there are several alternatives to EPDM roofing, each with its own pros and cons:
TPO Roofing
While both EPDM and TPO are popular choices for flat roofs, they have significant differences. EPDM, a synthetic rubber membrane, is known for its durability and resistance to UV rays, while TPO, a thermoplastic membrane, reflects more sunlight, potentially offering superior energy efficiency. However, EPDM typically has a longer lifespan than TPO.
PVC Roofing
EPDM and PVC roofing both offer solid solutions for low-slope and flat roofs, but they excel in different areas. EPDM roofing, due to its rubber-based nature, boasts superior resistance to weather, ozone, and UV radiation. On the other hand, PVC roofing stands out for its inherent fire resistance, durability, and the potential for energy savings from reflecting light.
Modified Bitumen Roofing
EPDM, a single-ply roofing system, has a more straightforward installation process and tends to be more flexible than modified bitumen, making it better suited to withstand temperature fluctuations and expansion. Modified bitumen, though, offers higher puncture resistance and durability, making it a robust choice for high-traffic roofs.
