EPDM is a synthetic rubber roofing membrane known for its flexibility, durability, and strong resistance to weathering. Commonly installed on low-slope commercial and multifamily properties, it can be fully adhered or mechanically fastened depending on building design. Its black surface helps retain heat, making it a reliable choice in colder climates. When assessing potential damage, EPDM roofs may show signs of wind uplift, punctures, or shrinkage.
