What is single ply roofing?
Single ply roofing is a flat roofing system made from a single layer of synthetic membrane, usually PVC, TPO or EPDM. It's either mechanically fixed or fully adhered to make a continuous waterproof layer that copes well with UV, temperature changes and standing water.
Where it makes sense
Single ply is lightweight and quick to lay over large areas, which is why it's the go-to for commercial units, offices and big extensions. It also works well on balconies and roofs with lots of rooflights, because the membrane can be welded or bonded neatly around details.
For smaller domestic roofs, EPDM rubber is the single ply membrane we fit most. See EPDM flat roofing.

Is EPDM the same as single ply?

“Undertook work as advised late 2023/early 2024 and right from the start Chris was proactive in keeping me up to speed with progress and requesting instruction when the inevitable snag was encountered. Site was left clean and tidy despite it being a fairly messy job! It's been 6 months now and no sign of any further leaks from the roof so I'm very happy with the outcome.”
“Very honest, pro-active and accommodating. Chris and his team communicated throughout the project and got on with the job. Work was carried out professionally, on time and for the quoted price. Would hire again.”
“Very happy with my new garage roof. Everything was left very tidy.”
