  1. Types of Flat Roofing Materials Built-up Roofing Known in the US as ‘tar and gravel’ flat roofing structures, built-up roofing is ubiquitous across the UK and has been in use for decades.

Modified Bitumen EPDM (Ethylene propylene diene monomer) represents a good value for money choice for any flat roofing structure. Constructed from artificial recycled rubber, EPDM can last up to fifty years, has superb insulating properties and resistance to UV rays and isn’t in any way toxic. As the most environmentally friendly option, the benefits offset the slightly more significant expense.
