Firestone Rubber Roofing Manchester
When homeowners need to replace their flat roof there are many choices to choose from. Firestone rubber cover EPDM is the ideal choice for all small domestic flat roofs and extensions including dormers, kitchen & bathroom extensions, garages & carports even the garden sheds, Firestone rubber cover can even be installed as a replacement in lead-lined gutters and valleys.
Why is Firestone Rubber Cover so special? Take a look for yourself at some of the key features of a Firestone rubber cover:
- Superior durability – The product comes with a 20-year warranty & a 50-year life expectancy.
- One piece seamless sheets – The rubber for every job is cut to size so no joins or seams.
- Easily maintained – Firestone Rubber Cover requires very little or no maintenance at all. Combined with low installation costs results in a low-cost life cycle.
- Flame free installation – Some flat roofing materials require a heat torch or open flame to install. Firestone rubber cover is held in place using high-quality adhesives eliminating all the risk involved with heat & open flame.
- Highly flexible year-round installation – Because it remains highly flexible even at low temperatures it can be installed all year round. Firestone Rubber Cover can also elongate to over 300% accommodating movement in the building.
- Environmentally friendly – Unlike most other flat roof products EPDM is made from recycled materials making Firestone Rubber Cover the ideal choice for the environment.
- Rainwater safe – Because Firestone Rubber Cover is completely non-toxic it can be used alongside rainwater collection tanks.

GRP fiberglass comes with a 20 year guarantee.
Benefits of Fiberglass Roofing
How Much Does a GRP Fiberglass Roof Cost?
Needless to say, the overall cost of any GRP fiberglass roof system will depend on whether a new roof is being constructed or an existing roof is being repaired or altered. The latter will of course be vastly cheaper.
Naturally, the surface area of the roof and whether you need to bring in the professionals for installation will need to be considered when budgeting for your GRP roof.
You’ll also need to think about if any structural repairs need to be carried out on the roof and if alterations are required to the guttering or downpipes.
Given the greatly superior durability of GRP roofing to felt systems, you might think that a GRP flat roof would cost a great deal more. This is not the case.
Although GRP is pricier than felt or EPDM rubber roofing systems, when you factor in this impressive longevity, along with the lack of maintenance needed, resistance to all weather, and attractive laminated finish, fiberglass roofs can be worth every penny.
