Toms River Roofing Pros installs EPDM roofing as a single-ply rubber membrane over a clean substrate, sealing every lap so water cannot reach the sheathing below.
It suits flat and low-slope work — a garage roof, a porch canopy, a mansard or gambrel edge, an awning, or a deep overhang — where an asphalt shingle roof sheds poorly and ponding water sits.
- TPO, PVC membrane, modified bitumen, and built-up roof systems are the other low-slope options we price against EPDM.
- Carlisle SynTec, Firestone, and Versico membrane rolls hold up in the bay's humidity and salt air.
- GAF EverGuard and Johns Manville give a second price point when membrane thickness decides the job.
- Synthetic underlayment and ice-and-water shield go along the eave, where an ice dam forms first.
- Ring-shank nails hold a base sheet on a steep section, and a self-adhered starter course seals the first row.
- Bonding adhesive and a hand-sealed lap replace the open torch used on modified bitumen, which cuts fire risk on a wood roof deck.
Our crew strips the old roofing felt, tar paper, and blistered bitumen, then checks the plywood or OSB decking for rot, decay, or a sagging substrate.
Deck framing gets the same attention, because a rotted rafter, truss, joist, ridge beam, purlin, batten, or counterbatten has to be sistered before a new membrane is worth installing.
- Pipe flashing and a vent boot seal the plumbing stack, and a boot flashing collar wraps any dormer or skylight curb.
- Apron flashing closes the wall line, while step flashing and counter-flashing tie the membrane into a chimney or parapet.
- An aluminum drip edge runs the rake and eave, and ridge cap and counter-flashing finish the ridge, hip, gable, and verge.
- A scupper or coping detail moves water off a flat roof instead of letting it pond against the wall.
Sealant, caulk, and mastic are used only where the membrane meets metal, and a reflective coating goes on where a parapet holds water against the wall.
We pull old nails with a pry bar and roofing shovel, run a nail gun off our air compressor, and keep a roofing square on hand for the field course layout.
Fasteners matter as much as the membrane itself, so we match screw or nail length to the decking and set a vapor barrier and snow guard where the plan calls for them.
Where the decking is sound, we can overlay with a recovery board instead of a full tear-off, which cuts waste and shortens the schedule.
Our roofing services run from a single pipe boot repair up to a full recover, and as a roofing company we schedule around tenants so a facility stays open.
Waterproofing and weatherproofing details follow the local building code for fastening, ventilation, and drainage, and we leave the rooftop and roofline clean.
Storm damage is the call that fills our week after a nor'easter, so a torn membrane does not sit open through the rain.
Ice dam removal is the winter version of that call, and a steam ice method clears the ridge without chopping the shingles.
Roof replacement is a bigger decision, and we will tell you when a targeted repair will hold instead.
A membrane roof usually ends the annual leak call, and that is the real savings: fewer repairs, longer service life, less debris in a dumpster every season.
