Back in the 1960s, homeowners in the USA began using rubber as an alternative roofing material. Despite its low profile, a flat rubber roof is becoming increasingly popular in the UK right now.

A rubber roof, or commonly referred to as an EPDM flat roof, is a single sheet of durable rubber that can last in excess of 50 years with little to no maintenance costs! Just another reason why we love rubber.
