The Membrane size will be the same as the kit size. Therefore your roof size will need to be smaller to allow for edge overlaps. e.g. 6metre x 3metre roof kit will fit a roof that is no larger than 5.7metres x 2.7metres.
The ClassicBond One Piece EPDM system is great for large or small flat roof areas and is normally bonded on to a timber deck in one piece so no joins! Find out more!

EPDM has been in commercial use since the 1960s. And many of those roofs are still around today.
Will my EPDM membrane have a join?
All membranes do have manufactures joins as supplied to us. Depending on the spacing of the joins and the size of the piece being cut off the roll, sometimes there is no manufacturers join in the membrane.
All EPDM membranes, whether it is Firestone, ClassicBond or SKYGUARD have these joins and they are unavoidable. However, the big advantage is that it is supplied to you in one piece as our website states, which means you don't have to do any onsite joins where workmanship could be a factor.

How Difficult is it to Install a Rubber Roof on a Garden Building?
For the most part, each section of the installation is easy. Gluing the membrane down with both adhesives is very straightforward and securing the trims and clips to the perimeter is as well. Watch our video for a detailed step by step breakdown so you can follow along!
Which Timber Boards Should I Use For My New Rubber Roof?
Choosing the right boards for your job can be daunting with many different options available to use for flat roof decking. However, some are much more highly recommended than others. In our video below, Sam covers the key differences between the most commonly used boards, OSB3 and S-Grade Plywood.
How Long Does It Take To Install A ClassicBond Roof?
Generally, installing a ClassicBond roof can be a very quick job if you have basic knowledge about the preparation and the correct steps to take.
Some factors will affect the installation time such as the current substrate, size and type of roof; along with if there is any detail work required such as skylights.
Our friends over at RoofScout have made a great video showing you exactly how long it takes to install ClassicBond on a freestanding, timber-boarded log cabin.
For Sam, it took him just under a 1hour and 30minutes. He did install this roof alone and installed edge trims which make a difference to the installation time.

How Thick are ClassicBond Roofing Membranes?
ClassicBond Roof membranes are available in two thicknesses. The Standard membrane is 1.2mm thick and the Premium membrane is 1.5mm
Can a ClassicBond EPDM Rubber Membrane be laid over an existing roof covering?
EPDM membranes can be installed onto a variety of surfaces. For best results, we recommend that the membrane be laid onto new Timber sheets (OSB3). This fresh new deck can, however, be laid straight over your existing roof covering without the need to strip the old roof.
Is Classicbond EPDM BBA Certified?
Yes. ClassicBond EPDM holds the British Board of Agrément certificate, No. 11/4853, issued to Flex-R Ltd. The BBA carries out assessment, testing, approval and certification of products and systems for the construction industry against national requirements, internationally recognised standards or other relevant technical specifications, reviewed and reissued every 3 years.
Fire Ratings
The ClassicBond system is also fire rated, the 1.2mm EPDM has a fire rating of EXT.F.AB and the 1.5mm EPDM membrane is fire rated to EXT.F.AA. Fire rating is carried out on a variety of deck surfaces and it is important to seek the certificate that relates most accurately to your roof structure.
What Temperatures Can A Rubber Roof Be Installed In?
We recommend a minimum temperature of 5°C for EPDM installation. This is due to the WBA adhesive being water-based and lower temperatures may cause the adhesive to freeze over and fail.
