Kevin, a property in Detroit Lakes, MN, contacted our team to address issues with their aging flat roof, which had begun showing signs of wear and potential leaks. After inspection, we recommended a complete flat EPDM roof replacement to provide long-term protection and reliability. Our crew began by pressure washing the roof, removing the old edge metal, and installing a ½-inch HD board as the base. We then secured a new EPDM membrane with screws, plates, and bonding adhesive, ensuring all penetrations were properly sealed with durable flashing details.
To finish, new edge metal was installed, giving the roof a clean appearance while improving overall durability. This updated EPDM roofing system will deliver decades of performance, protecting the property against UV exposure, heavy rain, and temperature extremes. With its proven strength and low maintenance needs, EPDM remains one of the most trusted solutions for flat roof replacement.
