Hi
Just remembered to show this video, demonstrating the Installation methods for Firestone Epdm Rubbercover.
The new Firestone EPDM rubber membranes are perfect whether you own a home large or small. Since this is a special type of roof, there is the need for a very specific material to shield it from the natural elements such as rain and snow. With a normal pitched roof, felt paper and shingles are typically enough to make the precipitation run off. However, the flat roof doesn't have enough inclination to funnel this water off by itself. Normally there are standing puddles where some settling may have occurred. This is where a proper rubber roofing application such as EPDM can protect against property damage caused by water infiltration.

There are many DIY projects that can be done around the house, but this isn't really one of them if you want it done correctly. In order to properly lay down the Firestone EPDM rubber membranes on a flat roof, it takes special equipment and training to complete the job properly. Some of this involves the use of a heating torch to properly seal the Firestone rubber roofing to the underlayment. This is definitely a job that needs to be left to the professionals. The proprietary Firestone EPDM material used by companies specialising in this work can have a long life expectancy so getting it right is cost effective.

As with any roof application, the covering has to withstand the effects of sun, wind and rain. The Firestone EPDM rubber membranes are able to stand up against ultra violet light and ozone damage. It doesn't become brittle with age and is resistant to both moss and fungus. Many rubber roofing materials out there cannot make this same type of statement. It is important to get the very best system applied to your home when completing a project of this nature. Why not get the best quality EPDM solution to your worst nightmare?

When installed, the Firestone EPDM rubber membranes will last on average for 50 years. It is composed of a proprietary polyester fleece backing that stands up well to abuse. This is the unique substance that helps to provide the elastomeric quality in this material. The ability to stand up against harsh elements, and still remain pliable will safeguard against leaks and ensure that your roof will remain tight against any possible water damage. Compared to comparable systems, this is not only cost affordable, but also a better value since there is virtually no maintenance involved following installation. Consider this system a very wise investment on the basis of value for the money.

New Considerations for the public regarding Flat Roofs

Flat and low pitch roofs have got a bad (and somewhat undeserved) reputation this is largely due to felt roofs which have a short life generally 10 - 15 years are prone to leaking and rapid deterioration due to Britain's varied weather conditions, but never the less people still insist on replacing felt with felt, year in year out mainly due to the lack of knowledge about better alternative roofing products. This in turn has given flat roofs their rather tarnished reputation. Hopefully after reading through this article you will know better.

Due to the fire risks and compensation claims made in relation to hot bituminous products many insurance companies will no longer cover companies who undertake hot felt work. So if you have your roof covered by such a company there is a possibility they may not be around to honour any guarantee they give you.

At BPC Roofing we are proud that we stand by all our Guarantee's (which is quite easy as the quality of the materials means that there is very seldom ever a problem) and by offering you the same products you can have the same peace of mind and the products carry the same guarantee as if fitted by ourselves.

Quite simply Firestone Epdm Rubber is the best flat roof covering on the market, is covered by the Firestone manufacturers Twenty Year Guarantee, which should never be needed as the material will last in excess of 50 Years.Any further information may be gleaned from our website at www.bpcroofing.co.uk or our sister company at www.singleplyroofers.co.uk

A Roofer's Blog

Hi all
Just thought I would open my blog with a really annoying week, I will be glad to see the back off.
 My van was in for repairs £400 and with the service for my car-I think the garage did it cheaper as the van was so dear-I am £500 squid lighter in the tail + the van was in for longer than expected so I lost two days, it starts pouring with rain, my phones going berserk with calls and Im stuck-I can hardly put ladders on my Audi TT.
Consequently the diary is now full of leads & jobs-Ive got the van back and its running like a new van again.
So Im getting ready to go out & rattle through some jobs on Friday................Monsoon time, seriously in Edinburgh the rainwater was pouring over gutters, cascading from tenement roofs, gushing upwards from street drains..........another day wasted labourwise, so it was just a case of going to see jobs to price in the book.
Finished early & played with trying to optimize my website www.bpcroofing.co.uk .
One roofing aspect I have noticed lately is, that I am seeing a rise in enquiry's for Installing Firestone Rubbercover instead of people just phoning up wanting roofs re-felted.
It looks like Joe Public are finally beginning to realise its the future of roofing.
Hope you enjoyed.
