Euroshield Rubber Roofing
Euroshield Rubber Roofing Service
The Euroshield Rubber Roof System commonly known by their technical name of EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer), are like the cozy, waterproof boots for your flat or low-slope roofed building. They’re made from a single-ply rubber material that’s both lightweight and flexible, which means they can adapt to various roof shapes and sizes like a custom-tailored suit.
One of the fantastic perks of rubber roofs is their durability; they’re like the trusty friend that sticks around through thick and thin, with a lifespan that can stretch up to 50 years with proper maintenance. Plus, they’re pretty tough cookies when it comes to standing up to UV rays and harsh weather, which is a comforting thought when the Edmonton skies turn grey and winter arrives. Installation is usually a breeze, too — the rubber can be laid down quickly and efficiently, minimizing the time your building is under construction. And if you’re into eco-friendly solutions, rubber roofs are a green choice since they’re often made from recycled materials and are themselves recyclable at the end of their life.
So, if you’re considering a roof that combines resilience with environmental consciousness, a rubber roof could be just the ticket!

Benefits of a Rubber Roof
Euroshield rubber roofs boast a medley of benefits that make them a top pick for anyone looking to roof a flat or low-slope structure. Imagine a roof that laughs in the face of harsh weather: EPDM rubber roofs are incredibly resistant to the sun’s relentless rays, heavy rain, and even snow.
This resilience means fewer leaks and repairs, which is a win for your wallet and your peace of mind. And let’s talk about longevity—these roofs have the stamina of marathon runners, often lasting 20 years or more with minimal upkeep, which is impressive, given the brutal Edmonton winters we have! They’re also champions of energy efficiency, keeping your building cooler in the heat of summer thanks to their reflective properties, and that can translate into lower air conditioning bills.
When it’s time for installation, rubber roofs are like a dream team player that’s easy to work with, reducing labor costs and the environmental footprint by often being laid directly over the existing roofing material. Plus, they’re lightweight, which means there’s no need to burden your building with extra support. And for those who have a green thumb at heart, rubber roofs are an eco-friendly choice; they’re typically made from recycled materials and can be recycled again at the end of their useful life.

How Installation Works
Installing a rubber roof is a process where skill meets precision, and it’s a task that our expert roofing team undertakes with care to ensure your home or building is well-protected.
First off, we begin by thoroughly cleaning the existing roof substrate to create a blank canvas. This step is crucial; it’s like prepping a masterpiece painting, ensuring the surface is free of debris and moisture. Then, we may install insulation board to provide a smooth surface and additional energy efficiency. Once that’s all set, the rubber material, typically in large rolls, is rolled out over the area.
Our skilled team takes their time to carefully measure and cut the rubber to fit the exact dimensions and contours of your roof—think of it as tailoring a bespoke suit that fits your roof perfectly. We’ll apply an adhesive to bond the rubber to the roof or use mechanical fasteners or ballasting with stones to secure the material in place, depending on the system being used.
The seams between sheets are a critical focus point; roofers use seam tape or a liquid adhesive to ensure these joins are watertight and durable. It’s a bit like stitching together a waterproof quilt that’ll snugly cover your roof.
Finally, the edges are sealed, and any additional components like flashing are installed to complete the roof. Throughout the process, we are meticulous, ensuring that every inch of your roof is covered and sealed properly, safeguarding your property against the elements. It’s a craft that requires both strong know-how and an eye for detail to ensure your rubber roof is installed perfectly.
The Euroshield Rubber Roof System is an environmentally friendly, durable, and visually appealing roofing solution. Its use of recycled rubber, long lifespan, energy efficiency, and low maintenance requirements make it a practical choice for homeowners in Edmonton who are seeking both sustainability and performance in their roofing systems. With a wide variety of design options, Euroshield roofs can enhance the curb appeal of any home while standing the test of time.
