Hi Noah it’s a cracking product and great service from the guys at Rubber4roofs all the best Tony 👍
Will is a massive credit to A&E. The man is a proper roofer!!
Thank you for the kind words Sam, take care 👍
Thank you so much
Looks like an excellent system, we’re having a flat roof extension and still weighing up the benefits of all the different types.
Also, got to say guys the quality of these videos is really excellent, must take you forever to edit. Some of the best on UA-cam!
Hi Ricky I’am sure you will make the right decision, much appreciated about the videos the guys do a awesome job all the best Tony 👍
Excellent instructional video, particularly the belts and braces detailing at corners and the outlet. Never come across a self adhesive EPDM. The ability to see the beading form, when heated, is reassurance that the seal is complete.
Watching masters doing what they do best is always so satisfying. Flat roofing is a bit like waterproofing a shower before tiling
Hi Tony much appreciated it is I know what you mean all the best Tony 👍
Will as always, making it look easy! Fiddly stuff doing all those corners!
Hi Jamie it’s not that bad once you got the knack all the best Tony 👍
Always great watching A&E these real tradesmen brilliant explanation keep em coming
Hi Julian much appreciated have a awesome week all the best Tony 👍
Eye for detail.. One on the best on the net right now
Could litterly block the outlet and have a 8 inch swimming pool that would never leak a single drop. Top notch work
This has been an awesome set of videos so far
Thanks Tony have a awesome week all the best Tony 👍

Another great quality video - good to see quality workmanship 👍
Hi Paul much appreciated all the best Tony 👍
Joe Ledley is a master roofer..
Quality craftsmanship.
👍👍
Impressive that mate!
Great looking job. I am interested in the neighbours roof, very similar pitch to our own extension which is leaking. Current roof has “low pitch” tiles. Looking for recommendations on how to repair it and what is best to use. Corrugated, epdm, grp etc. pitch is around 11 degrees. Any tips welcome. 8x4m roof with 3 skylights.
Excellent job 👍👌
Thanks a lot 😊👍
Flawless job as always will, your a top class roofer, I use epdm on straight forward roofs but have to say I’d definitely fibreglass that as personally I’d find it a lot easier, I’d be concerned about all those joints (mainly because im to impatient 😃)
Very thorough job!!
Thanks Vernon! 👍
Thanks for the brilliant building vids, easy to follow & really well explained 👌👍
Glad you like them Ray! Have an awesome week! 🙌
You can lay Restrix straight on top of the insulation? I spoke to a Restrix rep and he said it had to bond to ply or OSB. Love your videos.
Fantastic work 💪👷 is john not on this job ,love the channel 👏
Excellent work
Thank you! Cheers! 👍
Where there’s a Will
There’s a way 👌🏼
Hi Paul much appreciated Will is a legend all the best Tony 👍
Hi Martin much appreciated have a awesome week all the best Tony 👍
look forward to seeing the capping going on
Great video. What is the thickness of the insulation you put around the walls and what did you use to stick them ?
Mega this!! Was that the same primer you used for the resitrix as you used for the vapour barrier? Cheers
That's one roof that's never leaking!!

Hi Window Magic Cleaning it is a cracking system all the best Tony 👍
How long does epdm last for?
Watch all tutorials and I'm ready to hot my roof this summer great videos glad you made them 🎉.
It's similar installation to felting really with a proper quality product by the look of it, how long after priming can you lay the top layer? Looks good to lay, cheers Will for the demo.
Great work🙌, can this be welded later down the line?
Perfectionists!!
Excellent job. Such meticulous detail! Did you use a compressible filler in the expansion gap around the perimeter of the sub deck? If so, I'd be grateful if you could tell me the name of the product. It looked pink to me! Thanks in advance!
Superb, Will......glad it's not just me who jumps between imperial and metric measurements during a shift! 😂😂
Hi Jim I think us old boys seem to do it a lot jump from metric to imperial not to say we’re old Jim 😂 all the best Tony 👍 have awesome week
Haha I do the same 😂😂
Great work as always Will your attention to detail is top notch - that system does seem like a load of graft - Every Flat roof with a Lantern we`ve ever done we always go down the GRP route -
Hi Andy we are looking into doing a GRP coarse when we can after COVID all the best Tony 👍 have a awesome week
Hi Martin seen guarantees from 20 to 40 years depending on the company all the best Tony 👍 have a awesome week
Check out Roof1010 Grp made by Polyroof (RESTEC) & Flexitec2020 hybrid grp. Both British made in UK. Might be a good video to see how it’s made. Lots of testing and laboratories and really nice helpful people!
Would it make Sense to do the corner pieces first then use the skirts to cover them ? Just a theory ? Love your work will spot on mate 👍
Excellent,! Lots of cuts on that one. Have never used that type of epdm before. What bonds it to the insulation. I only seen you heat the joints.
Did you not see him peel the backing off of it and stick it to the insulation and broom over it to secure the bond??
How does this product compare in price to a full lead roof?
@@goodcat1982 no why?
Amazing job lads.
Just underwing who are those 3 people that didn’t like the vídeo 🤔🤭.. keep going guys !!
We ❤️haters.. 🤷🏻♂️
Hi Lula 😂 can’t keep everyone happy all the best Tony 👍 have a awesome week
@@BuildWithAE we do what we can.. enjoy your Sunday Sir.
You guys always do a brilliant job! Although personally I'd choose a pitched roof all day long over a flat. Pitched roof will last for ever with no leaks or maintenance. Loving your content though 👌
Hi Paul like you I do like pitched roofs but sometimes it’s a must all the best Tony 👍
@@BuildWithAE sure I do appreciate sometimes it's hard to accommodate the required degree of pitch. 👍 Keep up the great content Tony....loving it.
Hello mate, currently struggling to remove bubbles from a top later EPDM rubber. Been very careful during installation but bubbles keep popping up. What am I doing wrong?
What the name of the 2 tools he's using its the burner and the the metal roller can I get that tool
I've always been interested in how other trades work but never really have the time on site to stop and watch them. Thanks so much to you guys at A&E for allowing me, (any everyone else), to watch a skilled tradesman do a great job, and in my own time and the comfort of my own home. 😎
Thanks for the kind words TC, keep on keepin' on brother! 👍
Is there no requirement for a layer of sheet material over the 120mm insulation prior to applying the Restrix
How to do a roof without ending up in the A&E 🤣🤣🤣 Great job as always.
Thanks for watching! 🤣
No upturn of the membrane onto the parapet?
The code 4 man I see, Tony took his trainer's off...
Hi jlewis hope you are well code 4 maybe be code 5 anyway just glad I had no holes in my socks 😂 have a awesome week all the best Tony 👍
Why not just use a wet on wet liquid rubber system?
Hi Chris big no for me personally but each to there own all the best Tony 👍
@@BuildWithAE out of interest why? You can get 25 years guarantee vs 20 years out of Resitrix.
What liquid systems you getting 25years from chris?
@@robharding9476 hydrostop ah 25
I miss doing resitrix... people/builders won’t pay the difference they rather classic bond or fibreglass! Personally I still prefer a dark grey mineral finish if I choose
Hi Matt this is so true, it’s always cost sensitive to the clients all we can do is give them options and let them choose all the best Tony 👍 have a awesome week
Basic roofing trick - 1.always start from the bottom work ur way up.
2 .always start pushing ur strip in the middle .
Which scissors are you using bud?
Nice
👍👍
Why did you choose Resitrix? I've calculated for my roof and resitrix is coming up over double the price of EPDM although it look a lot easier to install.
Hi Leonard because it’s a superior product we don’t use anything else, always doing are best for the clients all the best Tony 👍
Nice job! Prefer a GRP or liquid waterproofing personally, no joins laps etc
Hi Rob it’s a cracking system and we will also looking into GRP and others but it also very weather dependent on some products, what’s the liquid one you talk about please all the best Tony 👍
@@BuildWithAEcant fault the install, attention to detail is second to none! Very weather dependant yes, we are currently installing alot of Res-Tec or similar systems on our projects, seamless and a lovely finish..
Thanks Rob we check them out 👍
Grp is not even in the same league as epdm
@@nickydavies4 edpm is a great system, to many laps and joins for me
Will quality job mate looks really Fiddly. Would you say that’s a better system than fibre glass?? Also any idea on costs per square metre . Thanks a lot guys great watch again articulated well 👍🏽
Hi Martin much appreciated it’s very cost effective I personally think, Tom from Rubber4roofs always looks after you and you can send over drawings and if there the next day, it’s like a drop shipping for flat roofs saves time and money for me, never used fibre glass it’s used a lot on commercial and now starting to be used in the private sector more but we haven’t yet all the best Tony 👍 have a awesome week
Thanks Tony appreciate the prompt reply. Just another quick question the waterproof rubber is stuck direct to the insulation., is the insulation a special order that is part of that system? Thanks Tony you must be rammed responding on you tube how on earth do you find the time to work!!
Hi Martin this is a link www.kingspan.com/gb/en-gb/products/insulation-boards/insulation-boards/therma/thermaroof-tr27 cracking product there are alternatives, are local MKM keep it in stock, I don’t mind always up early and it’s when ever I get a bit of free time but the site graft comes first if I couldn’t do that I would pack up UA-cam but I really enjoy sharing the knowledge as much as we can we all do all the best Tony 👍
Hi mate have you got any torch on felting videos?
Hi on the way soon 👍
Reason why you are using partial bond on new deck?
It’s the spec
Interesting as only real adavange is roofs prone to moisture or movement.
It's actually more expensive than the fully bonded too.
Strange.
@BuildWithAE
Is this a cold roof? Because didn’t see you insulate on top 🔝?
Warm roof
Cracking job! I've used a bit of resitrix myself and its a great product. After the insulation was fitted the chap said it would be left for a week for the adhesives fumes to escape, etc. Just wondered on the practicality of leaving it exposed, was it covered above so was water tight? I assume you dont want the insulation getting wet.
Hi David we keep it well covered, we left it for one day all the best Tony 👍
The corner is great
Switzerland
Sooo many joints, sooo many seams??
Hi Jay to difficult to do it in one all the best Tony 👍
@@BuildWithAE you'd do it in one piece if you use firestone epdm rubber, while taping the corners.
Risitrix straight on insulation
HELLO Were. Can I get. One of them Edgeing tools withThe WHEEL. CHEER.S. J
Hi Jimmy Rubber4roofs all the best Tony 👍
Why are u using heat gun on EPDM? Coz what i know only on Tpo u use a heat gun
Small outlet. Always a concern
Genuinely you guys are master builders. I'm an engineer by profession, and I can see the engineering mindset in everything you're doing.
Great work gents, I've learned a lot from your content.
To send something back your way, with your suppliers, do you have any links / codes I can use that identifies A&E as the company that I saw their product through?
So when i come to purchase in the future, they'll know how I found their product I.e. through A&E.
To get a corner you basically cut out a pac man. Top job lads
Hi John I thought the same when I seen it 😂 have a awesome week all the best Tony 👍
@@BuildWithAE you to Tony! 👍🏻
Cost?? No ta
No messing
Thanks for watching Naiem 👍
@@BuildWithAE it a pleasure
Welp, give me a heat gun and put me to work.
Will could have made the titanic waterproof with this stuff...
Thank you
Awesome.
It is Saturday night, the Wife's in bed naked, and I am on UA-cam watching this? Where did it all go wrong Will?
Hi Bob 😂 pure class that’s made me smile have a awesome week all the best Tony 👍
The main thing I'm learning from this series is flat roofs with lanterns are too much work!
😂 all the best Tony
Resitrix nie jest 100% epdm. Na 2.5mm resitrix tylko 0.6mm to epdm reszta to bitum.
To wether dependent 👎🏻
Weather
Hi Ollie it’s like most roofs always weather dependent all the best Tony 👍
Hi Martin there is nothing wrong with the outlet run the figures with water flow rates for that outlet and as you know or don’t know every outlet and gutters should be cleaned every year for leaf debris if you live in a tree leafed area all the best Tony 👍
This is nothing at all like the EPDM membrane installed in the United States
Hi Jerry it’s an amazing product, my go to is Resitrix have a awesome week all the best Tony 👍
too many joins for my liking
Hi John would you done it in one all the best Tony 👍
@@BuildWithAE No but we use EDPM which I think gives more flexible approach to upstands & corners with fewer covers
cut sheet rather than roll
Oh no peel and stick :( use Firestone much better product and no heat application
Hi Nicky each to there own all the best Tony 👍
Tony mate iv looked at a lot of ur videos and your work is brilliant I my self do all types of Roofing but with flat roofing I do Firestone rubber I'm trained directly by them and been roofing in wales for 15 years I do a little bit of felt etc but mainly rubber as u say each to their own but for me Firestone hands down the best on the market keep up the good work and videos it's nice to see trade out there with pride in their work alot of work I do is correcting other peoples crap happy days bud 👍👍
Hi @@nickydavies4 I never say never I should look at the Firestone product do you have a good contact all the best Tony 👍
@@BuildWithAE yes mate run through rubbaseal merchant is aveneir roofing dont use water based glue it's a little cheaper but for a reason.. green contact glue is the only way lol iv been laying Firestone for 15 years without a single failure I'm also trained through fire stones commercial sector direct with Firestone but have my own company now doing residential if ur looking for any info or tips feel free to inbox me keep up the good work mate
@@nickydavies4 Interesting to read of your experience...so on a warm roof, is firestone rubber contact glued to specific insulation boards similar to this video, please?
Not sure about this set up..
Hi rsg666 it’s cracking look into it all the best Tony 👍
Use Grp, no joins or seems just one continuous system, done well it looks great too
