Fast, Easy Flat Roofing with a Rubber Roof Kit
6th October 2020
As winter approaches, there isn’t much time to get those outside jobs ticked off. Permaroof can help you with one of the biggest – your flat roof. Read on to find out how a rubber roof kit can help make light work of this important job.
Leaking flat roofing can become the bane of one's life. There are only so many times that the stuff stored in the garage or shed can be moved out of reach of the drips, and only so long the leak can be left before serious, costly damage begins to show itself. Addressing these issues with quick fixes can only last so long, and it makes sense to look at the bigger picture as soon as possible.
What’s included in your rubber roof kit?
Buying an EPDM rubber roof kit from Permaroof UK offers the answer to tackling DIY flat roofing. Our comprehensive kits are carefully put together in a wide range of standard sizes that can be bought off-the-shelf in our online store or tailored to suit your individual needs and delivered fast.
Everything you need to produce a professional installation can be included in your bespoke rubber roof kit:
- Firestone EPDM membrane
- Permaroof water-based adhesive
- Permaroof bonding adhesive

Your EPDM roof kits are designed to give you exactly what you need, in exactly the right quantities, so you can be sure you won't have excess membrane to cut away, adhesive left over - and it means you only pay for what you need.

Standard shed roof kits
Replacing your shed roof has never been easier. Permaroof stocks a range of shed roofing kits in standard sizes, ready to buy, off-the-shelf. Our shed roof kits include membrane, spray adhesive and sealant to create a professional finish and a watertight seal.
Choosing EPDM membrane for shed roofing offers a long-term approach that cannot be matched by traditional roof coverings, such as felt or tar paper. With an average life expectancy of more than 50 years, Permaroof provide a lifetime guarantee with every Firestone EPDM shed roof kit.
Using EPDM kits to replace shed and garage roofing makes these jobs ideal for DIY. Super-easy to install, Permaroof roofing kits offer the country's DIYing public a chance to tackle a big job with no fuss. We have a range of PDF installation guides and videos on our website, accessible from any device, so you can even view a video while sitting on the flat roof deck, if you get stuck on any tricky bits.
