Rubber roofing systems are very lightweight and much easier to install than any other type of roof system. Rather than having to cut, shear, or weld seams together, they simply stick to your roofing surface with an adhesive. Because of this, the costs are lower, making them even more affordable.

Fire hazards are among the greatest risks associated with any type of construction project, including roofing projects. However, rubber roofing offers an effective solution to these problems. Rubber roofs are designed to protect against fire damage, so they're often considered the best choice for high-risk areas such as warehouses, garages, and industrial buildings. They offer protection from fires caused by sparks, hot embers, and burning debris. In addition, they help prevent heat build-up inside the building, which could lead to structural damage.

Insurance companies are willing to offer discounts between 5%-35% if you install a roof which protects against impact, hail and lightning damage. And, as explained in the previous paragraph, rubber roofing is resistant to all such damage. Installing a rubber roof could save you even more money in annual insurance coverage costs.

In order to avoid leaks, seams should not be present in a roofing material. With rubber roofing, there aren't any seams created during installation. Therefore, there are very few chances for water to enter into the space between the panels. Because there are so few seams, rubber roofs are extremely durable. They can last 50+ years before needing replacement.
