Can TPO Be Installed Over Old EPDM?

Yes. Recovering with TPO is a great option for a building with an aging EPDM roofing system. It’s easy. It’s far less costly and disruptive than a full tear-off. And the result is a durable, low-maintenance, energy-efficient new roofing system.

The EPDM membrane should not be recovered “as-is,” however. To make any future leaks far quicker and easier to find and repair, the old membrane must first be cut into pieces no larger than 10 feet by 10 feet. If the EPDM is left watertight, any water that gets in will pool on top of it. The leak will go unnoticed and unaddressed, leaving the roofing system susceptible to extensive damage. Cutting the old EPDM membrane helps ensure that the leak will manifest itself inside the building quickly, allowing it to be repaired promptly.

If you have any questions about TPO Re-Roofing, and would like to schedule an inspection.
