How often should rubber roof be cleaned?
Your EPDM roofing should be cleaned at least 3 to 4 times a year. Cleaning is essential in keeping your roofing in god condition and in preparing it for extreme temperatures. After cleaning, you have to inspect the area and this process will require that the roofing material is dirt-free.
Part of your roof check is to look for tears, cracks, gaps, openings, seams that are starting to disintegrate and separate, and other forms of damage. Strategize and plan ahead as to how you’ll be walking over the entire roof area. This isn’t like a normal walk on normal ground so make sure you take your time walking over every square inch to check for areas that are damaged or broken. It helps to have a chalk or any marker that you can use to indicate areas that need closer examination and inspection.
You can get repair tools and kits from your local hardware store for basic EPDM roof repairs but if you want to make sure that everything is done flawlessly, it’s better to hire the services of South East Rubber Roofing which not only provides EPDM Rubber Roofing in Essex but also regular roofing maintenance, inspections, and repairs.
