Preparation is Key
Before diving into the installation process, proper preparation is essential. Ensure the roof deck is clean, smooth, and free of any debris or obstructions. Repair any damaged areas and address any underlying issues to create a solid foundation for the rubber membrane.

Select High-Quality Materials
Choose a high-quality rubber roofing membrane, such as our RubberCover or QuickCover options, to ensure durability and long-lasting performance. These membranes are specifically designed for flat roofs and offer superior weather resistance and flexibility.

Follow the Guidelines
Familiarise yourself with the manufacturer’s installation guidelines and recommendations. Plytech provides detailed instructions for installing our rubber roofing membranes, including proper techniques for seam sealing, flashing installation, and adhesive application.

Use the Right Tools and Equipment
Invest in the necessary tools and equipment for the installation process, including rollers, brushes, adhesives, and seam tapes. All are available for Next Day delivery from Plytech.

Work Methodically and Carefully
Take your time during the installation process and work methodically from one section of the roof to another. Ensure proper alignment and overlap of the rubber membrane, paying close attention to detail at seams, corners, and penetrations.

Quality Assurance and Inspection
Once the rubber membrane is installed, conduct a thorough inspection to check for any imperfections or areas that may require additional attention. Address any issues promptly to ensure the integrity of the roofing system.
