How long should a rubber roof last?

How long do rubber roofs last depends on a lot of factors, including the materials used to install it, the type of roofing and who installed it. Rubber roof life is generally between 20 and 25 years.

Is there any difference in rubber roofing?

There are many different types of rubber used in rubber roofing. These include asphalt, bituminous and asphaltenes.

The most common types of asphalt are black tar (the least expensive) and smooth (the most expensive).

Bituminous bars are made of coal residue or plant oils from recycled products. Asphaltenes are made from natural deposits that are heated to make the finished product less solid.

There are also many kinds of polymers used to make the rubber flexible, depending on what they are being used for. Polymer additives generally fall into two categories: plasticizers and reinforcing agents.

Plasticizers are high-molecular-weight compounds that reduce the amount of hard, brittle material in the polymer mix. Helping to soften the material and increase its flexibility, plasticizer content has a direct effect on how flexible a solution is.

Polymer modifiers or reinforcing agents are added for strength and durability purposes. These strengthening agents must be blended with the base polymer to form a well-rounded, durable product.

Benefits of Rubber Roofing

Waterproofing

Attic access is not needed.

Quiet

Rubber roofs are quiet, unlike asphalt roofing.

Stability, Durability and Fire Safety

The material used in the rubber roof is resistant to fire and extreme temperatures. This makes rubber tile roofs suitable for areas that are prone to wildfires or burning embers. Rubber roofs also

do not leak like other types of roofing, such as shingle style roofs, and leaks are easily repaired by replacing only a small section of the entire roof.

Energy Efficiency

Rubber roofs are also energy-efficient, unlike some other types of roofing. Rubber tiles don’t allow heat to escape from the house and therefore help keep the house cooler in the summer.

Maintenance

With asphalt shingles, you have to clean and inspect for damage on a regular basis. If you don’t do this maintenance, then this type of roof will constantly leak and need to be replaced quickly. This is not true with rubber roofs because once they are installed correctly, they last a long time before needing to be replaced again.
