EPDM roof installation, written number first.
A new EPDM rubber roof is bought once and lived with for decades, which is why the installation decisions, the ones nobody can see from the street, matter more than the brochure ever will.
EPDM Roof · Installation
Because seam adhesive quality and protected edges decide an EPDM roof’s lifespan; the rubber itself routinely outlasts everything around it.
EPDM is the proven black rubber membrane that flexes through decades of thermal cycling without cracking, a workhorse on low-slope roofs across the country.
What that means in practice is that the installation conversation starts with your roof, not our price list. We look at what is actually up there, tell you what it needs and what it does not, and put the recommendation in writing so you can weigh it without a salesman in the room.
Our shop is in Bushnell and we run this work across Sumter, Lake, Citrus, Hernando and Marion counties. The person who answers the phone runs the crew, the quote arrives written and line-item, and the 10-year workmanship warranty behind it is registered before we call anything done.
EPDM Roof Installation
What the work actually includes.
No mystery scopes. This is what an EPDM rubber roof installation from Tippy Top covers, in writing, every time.
- Code and permits. Installed to current Florida code, permitted in your name and signed off by a county inspector.
- Manufacturer-spec details. Fastening, laps, terminations and flashings done to the letter, because that is what keeps the material warranty real.
- Registered warranties. The manufacturer coverage plus our own 10-year workmanship warranty on new roofs and re-roofs, both registered in writing before we call it done.
- System design first. Slope, structure, drainage and ventilation get read before any material is ordered, so the system fits the building instead of the other way around.
- Full written scope. Materials named line by line, seam adhesive quality and protected edges decide an EPDM roof’s lifespan; the rubber itself routinely outlasts everything around it spelled out, and the timeline in writing before work starts.
- Deck honesty. We probe the deck during the quote and price any replacement per sheet up front, so tear-off day holds no hostage negotiations.
What installation means on a Central Florida EPDM rubber roof.
Central Florida is the hardest place in the country to be a roof, and EPDM rubber roofs here live with UV that cooks binders and membranes, daily thermal swings that work every fastener, and a June-through-November storm season that tests each edge and detail. Installation decisions made with that reality in mind are why two identical roofs can be a decade apart in condition.
The system knowledge matters as much as the weather knowledge: seam adhesive quality and protected edges decide an EPDM roof’s lifespan; the rubber itself routinely outlasts everything around it. That is the difference between a crew that has done this exact work across five counties and a crew reading the wrapper on the way up the ladder.
None of the paperwork lands on you. We handle the county permit in your name and build a photo record with a written scope as the crew works. The install follows the manufacturer’s requirements, so nothing voids the coverage. You end up with a file that answers an insurer or a buyer on its own.

The Tippy Top standard
How every EPDM roof installation project runs, no exceptions.
The owner brings 20+ years of roofing experience to every job, long enough to know which shortcuts come back as leaks. The list below is what our crews will not cut.
- Coverage you can ask to see. Liability and workers’ comp are active on every job, and you can ask for proof before anyone climbs a ladder at your house.
- 10-year workmanship warranty. Our own labor guarantee on every new roof and re-roof install, sitting on top of the manufacturer’s material coverage, registered in writing before we call anything done.
- On the county’s books. We handle the permit filing on every qualifying job, so when you sell the house or file a claim, there is a public record of the work and the inspection that passed it.
- A number on paper. Materials, labor and timeline are broken out line by line, and the total you sign is the total on the final bill.
- The owner on your roof. He shows up in person on every project, and the crew answers to him, not to a project manager you never meet.
- Nails off the driveway. Magnetic sweeps run over the yard, the drive and the walkways at the end of every workday, so tires and bare feet stay safe.

EPDM Roof Installation questions, answered straight.
How long does an EPDM roof installation take?
Most residential-scale installs wrap in one to four days depending on size and complexity; larger and commercial projects get a written schedule with the quote. We put a firm timeline in writing and keep the site clean every evening either way.
Do you handle the permit?
Always, and in your name. Every qualifying installation is permitted, inspected and closed out with the county, so the roof is on record where it counts for insurance and resale.
What does a new EPDM roof cost?
It depends on size, structure and detail work, which is why we do not quote from a truck window. You get a free on-site look and a written line-item number, and what we quote is what you pay.
What warranty comes with it?
Two layers: the manufacturer’s coverage on the material, registered properly so it actually holds, and our own 10-year labor warranty on the workmanship of new roofs and re-roofs, in writing.
Can you work around my schedule?
Yes. Homes get clean starts and clean finishes; businesses get work sequenced around hours and operations. Tell us the constraint and we will build the plan around it.
