How to Install an EPDM Gutter Lining Video and Installation Guide

Make sure your gutter is clean and dry. Refer to the manufacturers installation manual for bonding to different substrates.

Stir the FG35 Primer.

Apply a thin coat of the FG35 primer using a medium pile paint roller or mini roller.

Ensure the FG35 Primer is dry to the touch. This normally takes around 30 minutes.

Measure your gutter base and sides.

Copy the dimensions on to the release paper on the underside of the gutter lining.

Carefully score the release paper with a sharp knife ensuring that the gutter lining is not cut.

Position the rubber membrane in the gutter allowing sufficient membrane to form the stop end.

Peel off first section of release paper from one of the gutter sides. (NOT THE BASE)

Fold membrane back on it self to expose second section (BASE) of release paper

Remove the release paper from the base of the gutter lining and smooth the EPDM lining on to the gutter base

Remove the final section of release paper from the back of the EPDM gutter lining and press in to position.

Use Seam Roller or Stiff Brush to press the EPDM gutter lining on to the gutter base and sides

Using a sharp pair of scissors cut the membrane on the corners to allow it to fold up the stop ends.

Remove the centre section of the stop end release paper.

Form the stop end pleats or pigs ears.

Remove the relase paper and bond in to position.

Trim the excess membrane prior to installing trim or lead flashing on brick work.

Heat weld patches where the membrane has been cut,. a minimum 50mm overlap is required for heat welding.

An additional section of membrane can be heat welded in to position to cover any pleats on the stop ends.

WHEREVER EPDM MEMBRANE IS TO BE BONDED TO EPDM MEMBRANE THIS SHOULD BE HEAT WELDED AND NOT STUCK WITH FG35 PRIMER

Heat weld EPDM laps where necessary

Fit your chosen edge trim system from where necessary
