Quality Rubber Roofing Kelowna
Eco-Friendly and Durable Roofing Solution
Rubberized shingle roofs offer an eco-friendly, durable, and visually appealing alternative to traditional roofing materials. With a variety of styles mimicking asphalt, slate, shake, and tile, rubber shingles can match any home design while providing superior protection against the elements. Thanks to its long lifespan, minimal maintenance, and energy-efficient qualities, rubberized shingle roofs are a smart investment for homeowners seeking both sustainability and performance. Whether you're replacing an old roof or building a new home, rubber roofing systems are an excellent choice for a long-lasting, reliable roof.
Cedar Shake-Style Rubber Shingles
For homeowners looking for the rustic charm of wood shakes, rubber shingles moulded in a shake style is an excellent option. They give the look of natural cedar shakes but with improved durability and weather resistance.
Types of Rubber Shingles
Asphalt-Style Rubber Shingles
Designed to resemble traditional asphalt shingles, these rubberized versions offer a familiar look while providing greater durability, resistance to cracking, and extended lifespan compared to regular asphalt shingles.
Slate-Style Rubber Shingles
Rubber shingles that mimic the appearance of natural slate provide the classic, elegant look of slate without the heavy weight or high cost. These shingles are moulded to replicate the texture and shape of real slate, offering the same aesthetic appeal.
Advantages of Rubberised Roofs
01
Durability and Longevity
Rubber shingles are highly resistant to cracking, warping, and weather damage. With proper care, rubberized roofing can last between 30 to 50 years or more, withstanding harsh conditions like wind, hail, and extreme temperatures.
02
Impact and Fire Resistance
Rubber shingles are very resistant to damage from impacts like falling branches or hail. Many of these shingles also have a rating for fire resistance, offering additional protection for your home.
03
Low Maintenance
Compared to traditional roofing materials, rubber roof shingles require minimal maintenance and are less prone to issues like moss, mould, and mildew growth.
04
Environmentally Friendly
Rubber shingles are often made from recycled materials, such as old tires, which helps reduce waste and provides an eco-friendly roofing option. When they reach the end of their lifespan, they can often be recycled again.
05
Energy Efficiency
Rubber roofs provide natural insulation that effectively helps regulate the temperature in your home. This can significantly reduce energy costs for both heating and cooling throughout the year.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a rubberized roof last?
Rubberized roofs are known for their durability and can last 20 to 50 years, depending on the specific type of rubber roofing material and how well it is maintained. EPDM roofs, for example, can last up to 30 years, while TPO and PVC may last longer with proper care.
Are rubberized roofs prone to damage?
Rubberized roofs are generally extremely durable, but they can be susceptible to damage from sharp objects, large debris, or standing water. EPDM, TPO, and PVC roofs are resistant to most common weather conditions, but it's important to address any damage quickly, as even small punctures can lead to leaks.
How much does a rubberized roof cost?
The cost of a rubberized roof depends on factors such as the size of your roof, the material chosen (EPDM, TPO, PVC), and the complexity of installation. On average, rubberized roofs are more affordable than traditional roofing materials like metal or slate. However, the long-term savings in energy efficiency and durability can make it an affordable choice in the long run.

Maintenance Tips
Maintain Clean Surface & Gutters
Regularly clear debris from your roof and gutters to prevent moisture buildup, which can result in mould or algae growth and damage the roof over time. While rubber shingles are naturally resistant to these issues, maintaining a clean roof will help extend their lifespan.
Regular Roof Inspections
Inspect the roof at least once or twice a year, especially after heavy storms, to check for any damage or loose shingles. Address any issues quickly to prevent further damage.
Prevent Moss and Algae
In humid climates, occasionally inspect the roof for moss or algae growth, though rubber shingles are typically resistant. If necessary, apply a roof cleaner or moss treatment to prevent buildup.
