Hi,

Any of you folks know about EDPM vs Fibreglass roofing.

I need to make a choice for a property extension in the UK. I expect rain, a few hot days, more rain, more rain, and some ice.

The roof won't be load bearing (people won't be walking on it).

Seems like every other website has differing opinions on what's best. I guess because everyone is selling something.

Any impartial opinions on what you'd use?

Cheers

Fiberglass can be smashed to shit by hail.

If hailstones EVER happen, you want a non-fiberglass roof, which you may well have to replace, after a storm.

Thanks. Not sure why the down votes.
