Is your Boroughbridge flat roof due an EPDM upgrade?
Watertight rubber roofing for garages, extensions and outbuildings near the Ure
Contact Us
Boroughbridge has been a stopping point since the Romans pushed Dere Street through, and today’s town keeps that low-key, practical character - a handsome centre of brick and stone near the River Ure, with the Devil’s Arrows standing guard on the edge of town. Its homes are mostly modest in height, which means plenty of single-storey extensions, garages and garden outbuildings topped with flat roofs.
Sitting close to the river, those roofs deal with damp air and heavy rain for much of the year, and old felt gives up quickly under that treatment. EPDM doesn’t. Laid as a single rubber sheet with no joints, it stays watertight through downpours and flexes through winter frost without cracking. Fitted well, it can protect a Boroughbridge roof for up to 40 years.

The Benefits of EPDM Roofing in Boroughbridge
Fitted Quickly and Cleanly
Most Boroughbridge EPDM installations take a day or two. The membrane arrives cut close to size, goes down fast, and the site is left tidy - no long weeks of scaffolding outside your window.
A Cost-Effective Choice
EPDM combines a modest installation price with a lifespan that felt can’t touch. Spread over decades of service, it’s among the cheapest ways to keep a Boroughbridge flat roof dry.
Free Assessments With No Strings
A roofer visits your property, inspects the existing roof and deck, and gives you a written quote to consider at your leisure. No obligation, no hard sell.
Longevity You Can Bank On
Up to 40 years of service from one installation. For a town where many flat roofs cover garages and outbuildings that owners want to fix once and forget, that’s the real appeal.
Stands Up to Riverside Weather
Damp air off the Ure, driving rain, hard frosts - EPDM resists the lot. The rubber doesn’t absorb water or turn brittle in the cold, so wet winters by the river don’t wear it down.

EPDM Roofs in Boroughbridge: Your Questions Answered
Do you cover outbuildings and garages in Boroughbridge as well as houses?+
Yes. Boroughbridge has a lot of garages, workshops and garden buildings with flat roofs, and EPDM suits them all. The membrane is light enough for simple timber structures and comes in one sheet, so even a small outbuilding gets a fully watertight covering.
Will an EPDM roof cope with the wet conditions near the River Ure?+
It’s made for them. EPDM is completely waterproof, doesn’t soak up moisture the way felt does, and has no seams for damp to creep through. Combined with properly set drainage falls, it handles riverside rain and humidity without complaint.
Does an EPDM roof need much maintenance?+
Very little. An occasional sweep to clear leaves and debris, plus a quick check of the edge trims once a year, is normally all that’s needed. There’s no re-coating or re-felting cycle - the membrane simply gets on with the job for decades.
