Recent work in New Bedford
On a three-story multi-family in New Bedford we removed the old roofing, which had a patch over a rotted section near the chimney, replaced the damaged decking, and installed a new EPDM rubber membrane with new flashing around the chimney and the perimeter.
The photos below show the finished membrane. A rubber roof like this has no shingles to lift in the wind and no seams in the field of the roof.

Usually yes. EPDM rubber is made for flat and low-slope roofs, handles ponding better than shingles and has few seams. It is the most common replacement we install on New Bedford multi-families.
If the membrane is sound and the problem is a seam or a flashing, yes. If the decking under it is rotted, as it was near the chimney on the job above, replacement is the only fix that lasts.
A properly installed EPDM roof typically lasts 20 years or more. Flashing and seams are what fail first, so those are what we inspect.
