@Ben-yw2vh3 жыл бұрын
@@AH-yg4qp it went very well, its a really easy system. the two things to watch out for are to ensure the joints of your roof boards are perfectly sealed, sanded and flush. I have one joint that wasnt T&G and you can tell as it has a very slight ripple along it. the other thing is make sure you dont cut the overhang too short as it needs more than you think to wrap up under the gutter trim. Mine was about 5mm too short in several places and the rubber kept popping out. If that happens I recommend cutting some small sections off the trim to use as shims. worked a treat for me. Good luck! 😎👍

Another great Video for us DIYers! I am just about to build my wife a posh shed and will use EPDM so this is very useful to see the upvc details. In fact I used a Butly Rubber pond liner on a shed I built 15 years ago and it is still going strong, Didn't even glue that one down! I have worked out the main difference between William and myself. He spends 5% of the time thinking and 95% working - I am the opposite ! lol

The reason for contact adhesive round the edge is because that's the most stressful area of the roof and even thought trim nails it in place you still end up with bubbles around the edges after 12 month or so.. seen it plenty of times

I love everything about your work ethic and attitude when working. It's easy to see you're a good worker. Only thing i want to add is the contract adhesive is highly recommended by the EPDM companies and there must be good reason for it. As someone else said it's likely to reduce stress and lifting. Otherwise brill job. Would be great to have an update video on this roof to see how it held up. That would shut myself and the neysayers up quick

😂there’s 40k people on my face book group, I’m estimating that at least 3k have followed my build packs and not used contact adhesive. Never an issue, fair enough if you’ve got upstands or adjoining a house wall. But it’s a flat roof with mechanical fixings to all edges, never had a problem 👌

Suppose that theory would be ok if temp at time off fitting was consistent, but it’s designed to be fit all year , and if the middle shrinks how would that effect the outside100mm , who knows, but never had a problem after using for years, I’ll go on the course one day 💪

william griffin yeah it wasn’t a criticism or anything. It’s probably my misunderstanding of it. In fact I spoke to a manufacturer today who has distributors in leeds, I was passed his details by a roof slate company we do some work for, and he said to do it like you did in this video.

a warm roof is impossible on the height of these builds, as we keep under the 2.5 rule. we push the insulation tight to the underside of the roof board. this then prevents the trapped air from condensation as there is no air to condensate.
