About

  • Puncture Resistance - RPE is 3x more resistant than EPDM - [1]
    • This video says you need an underlayment with EPDM, but not with RPE. [2]. EPDM folds better around corners. Vid says 1/2 the weight and 3x the puncture resistance - making it a great choice [3]

SBS

  • SBS peel and stick - [4]. 3 ply. 10,000 sf in 160 hours, or 500 sf in 8 hours. Buy at Menards - [5]. 120 mil thick. 3 layers? Or can we do 1 layer + ballast? More info from another manufacturer - [6]
    • Note - if it is multiple ply (2 or 3) - it is effectively like doing 2-3 roofs instead of one with EPDM. Proper termination detail still needs to be done at fascia and Bargeboard
