the surface.
Rather than relying on loose-laid ballast to hold the membrane down, a fully adhered system bonds it to the prepared substrate.

What is a fully adhered EPDM roof?
A fully adhered EPDM roof bonds the rubber membrane to a compatible substrate using the specified adhesive system. This low-slope roofing approach depends on substrate preparation, compatible materials, and appropriate application conditions. Double R Roofing offers fully adhered EPDM installations for properties in the Princeton area. An inspection should evaluate the deck, insulation, existing roof condition, drainage, and penetrations before an assembly is selected. Ask the written proposal to identify surface preparation, membrane and adhesive products, insulation attachment, flashing, seams, and edge details. Fully adhered does not mean that every component of the roof is free of mechanical fasteners. The complete assembly must follow manufacturer requirements. Compare installation scope and project-specific warranty terms with other attachment options before deciding.

01 / Why fully adhered EPDM
LESS EXPOSURE.
MORE CONFIDENCE.
EPDM is a flexible synthetic rubber membrane used on low-slope roofs. In a fully adhered system, the membrane bonds to a suitable substrate with an approved adhesive. The result starts with getting the whole assembly right.
Adhered across
Flexible by
design.
EPDM’s flexibility accommodates normal building movement. Choosing the right membrane and assembly matters as much as the material itself.
Protection beyond
the field.
Seams, penetrations, drains, and roof edges all need careful treatment. We consider those details as part of the installation—not an afterthought.

THE SURFACE.
No two roofs are exactly alike. We start with your building, then work through the preparation, membrane, and finishing details your installation needs.
The deck, insulation, attachment, adhesive, and membrane must work together as a compatible system. Specifications depend on roof condition and manufacturer requirements.

GOOD QUESTIONS.
STRAIGHT ANSWERS.
Not sure whether EPDM is the right fit? A conversation about your roof is the best place to start.
Talk to Double R RoofingIs EPDM right for my roof?
EPDM is commonly used on low-slope roofs. Suitability depends on your building’s structure, existing assembly, drainage, local requirements, and project goals. We assess those factors before recommending a system.
What does “fully adhered” mean?
The membrane is bonded to a suitable substrate using an approved adhesive. Insulation and other assembly components still require their specified attachment, and seams and flashings are completed using compatible system details.
Can you install over my existing roof?
Sometimes a recover is possible, but it is not appropriate for every roof. Moisture, existing layers, deck condition, applicable code, and manufacturer requirements determine whether removal or a recover is suitable.
What will my installation cost?
Roof size, access, removal needs, insulation, and detail work all affect cost. Request a free estimate so we can discuss your roof and provide a project-specific quote.
What warranty is available?
Warranty options depend on the selected products, installed system, and project eligibility. Ask us to explain the applicable coverage and written terms for your specific installation.
