Product Information

Full details

The Skyguard Shed Roof Kit is an ideal solution for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to upgrade garden structures like sheds, summerhouses, and workshops with a durable, long-lasting EPDM rubber membrane. It provides superior waterproofing and weather protection, significantly outperforming traditional roofing felt with a life expectancy exceeding 50 years. While it offers unmatched longevity, users should ensure the roof deck is clean and dry before application to guarantee the adhesive bonds effectively.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I install this over existing roofing felt?

It is highly recommended to remove old felt to ensure a smooth, clean surface for the EPDM membrane to bond to.

Is the membrane resistant to heat?

Yes, EPDM rubber is highly resistant to extreme temperatures and will not soften or crack like traditional felt.

What tools do I need for installation?

You will need a pair of heavy-duty scissors, a roller or brush for adhesive application, and a cloth for smoothing.

How long will the EPDM roof last?

The material is designed to have a service life exceeding 50 years when installed correctly.

Can this be used on a flat or pitched roof?

Yes, the Skyguard kit is suitable for most garden building roof types, including flat and low-pitch roofs.

Troubleshooting

Membrane not adhering to the roof deck

Ensure the roof surface was completely free of dust, moisture, or old felt residue before application. If applying in cold temperatures, the adhesive may take longer to set.

Air bubbles under the membrane

Use a soft-bristled broom or a roller to work from the center of the roof toward the edges to push out trapped air pockets during the initial installation.

Edge sealant failing to seal

Verify that the surface was dry and free of oil or grease before applying the sealant. Re-apply a small bead if the initial seal was too thin.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • 50-year expected lifespan
  • UV stable and weather-resistant
  • Comprehensive kit includes all necessary materials
  • Easy to customize with standard household tools
  • Superior durability compared to traditional shed felt

Cons

  • Requires a clean, dry surface for proper adhesion
  • Adhesive application requires attention to detail
  • May be more costly upfront than basic felt roofing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure your roof deck is solid, clean, and completely dry. Measure your roof dimensions and cut the EPDM material using scissors, leaving enough excess for proper overlap on the edges. Apply the water-based adhesive evenly to the roof surface before laying the membrane. Once positioned, use a roller or cloth to press the membrane firmly into place. The final step involves applying the edge sealant to all exposed edges to create a permanent, watertight seal. To maintain the roof, simply clear away leaves or debris once or twice a year to prevent water pooling or moisture traps.
