Did you know that EPDM roofing has a lifespan of more than 50 years? It is also impervious to acid rain and UV radiation. So with EPDM roofing, your house is well protected against external influences. Renoca lists all the possibilities and prices of EPDM roofing for you.
What does EPDM roofing cost?
The price of EPDM roofing is on average £ 50 per m2, including labour costs. EPDM (ethylene-propylene-diene monomer) is an environmentally conscious option. This is because this type of plastic roofing is 100% recyclable, root-proof and rot-resistant. See below for the average EPDM roofing costs for a 50m2 roof, the average roof area in the Netherlands.
| Work | Costs |
|---|---|
| Self removal and having EPDM installed | £ 1.200 – £1,600 |
| Remove and install EPDM | £1,500 – £2,000 |
| Remove and install EPDM and green roof | £3,500 – £5.000 |

Self removal
Are you very handy and want to save on costs? It is possible to remove and dispose of the old EPDM roof yourself. This will easily save you £300, bringing the total prices of epdm roofing down to between £1,200 and £1,600.
Care out of your hands
Want to be 100% sure that your new roof will not leak? Then it is best to leave all the work to a roofer. This will ensure you get a good result. The total cost of having your new EPDM roofing removed, disposed of and installed will come to between £1,500 and £2,000
Green roof
Do you want to give your roof a special look and be more environmentally conscious? Then installing a green roof is really for you. Having your current roofing removed, installing EPDM and installing a green roof all together costs an average of £3,500 to £5,000. Although this is a hefty investment, it also has many advantages, which will be explained later in this article.
What does the price structure of EPDM look like?
The EPDM prices are structured as follows:
As you can see, the price for having your roof covered with EPDM mainly consists of material costs. So the number of square metres of the job has the most influence on the total cost.
What choices determine the price of EPDM?
The price of EPDM roofing is largely determined by a number of choices you can make yourself. Below we explain how these choices affect the final total price of an EPDM roof.
Choice 1: EPDM thickness
In addition to the number of square metres of the roof on which EPDM is to be laid, the desired thickness of the material also affects the price. An EPDM sheet that is less thick often also costs less per square metre. However, this often also means that the material is of poorer quality. So pay close attention to the thickness of the EPDM when comparing quotations.
Choice 2: To do or not to do a green roof
A green roof is a natural and sustainable roof covering that is laid on top of the existing roof covering. A green roof is good for trapping fine dust and provides good insulation, not only in terms of temperature, but it also absorbs ambient noise. So you are no longer bothered by the sound of falling hail or rain, because it is absorbed by the vegetation on your roof. Installing a green roof will cost you between £50 and £80 per m². Because of the advantages of a green roof, many municipalities provide subsidies for its installation. That subsidy can be as much as £50 per square metre.
