Asphalt shingles installed on flat or low-slope roof sections trap water and fail well before their rated lifespan, leading to repeat leaks.
Flexible rubber membrane resists cracking through freeze-thaw cycling
EPDM is a synthetic rubber membrane engineered for flexibility and resistance to UV, ozone, moisture, and thermal cycling - the conditions that break down shingles laid flat on an addition or garage roof. Installation of EPDM synthetic rubber roofing membrane on flat and low-slope residential and commercial roofs, using cold-applied and flame-free installation methods. Cost depends on the roof's square footage, slope, existing roof condition, and access to the section being covered.

What We Install
Three systems, one focus: keeping water out. Vinyl decking for patios and outdoor living, and single-ply membrane roofing for flat and low-slope roofs across Ottawa.
| Vinyl Decking | EPDM Single-Ply Roofing | TPO Single-Ply Roofing | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Where it goes | Tufdek waterproof vinyl decking for patios, balconies, sundecks, rooftop patios, walkways and stairs | Synthetic rubber roofing membrane for flat and low-slope residential and commercial roofs | Thermoplastic polyolefin roofing membrane for flat and low-slope roofs |
| What it is | Tufdek's 5-layer construction | EPDM is a synthetic rubber membrane engineered for flexibility and resistance to UV, ozone, moisture, and thermal cycling | TPO is a thermoplastic single-ply membrane known for UV reflectivity, chemical resistance, and puncture resistance |
Vinyl Decking & Single-Ply Roofing vs. the Alternatives
A deck or roof is only as good as what's underneath the surface. Here's what tends to go wrong with the usual approach, and what a sealed membrane system actually does differently.
The usual approach
- Painted or Stained Wood DeckingNeeds re-staining every season or two and still lets moisture into the boards underneath, leading to rot and splinters over time.
- Shingles Laid Flat on an AdditionAsphalt shingles are built for sloped roofs - laid flat over a sunroom or garage addition, they trap water and fail well before a sloped roof would.
- Patch-and-Pray Roof RepairsSealing a leak with tar or caulk covers the symptom, not the membrane failure underneath - the same spot usually leaks again the next thaw.
- Composite Decking Without a Waterproof LayerComposite boards resist surface rot but still let water drain straight through the gaps onto whatever is underneath the deck.
A sealed membrane
- 100% Waterproof Vinyl MembraneTufdek's 5-layer construction seals the deck surface completely, so nothing drips through to whatever is below.
- Fade and Stain Resistant SurfaceThe printed top layer uses water-based inks and a UV-resistant polycarbonate top coat, so the pattern holds its color season after season.
- 15-Year Manufacturer WarrantyEvery Tufdek installation is backed by a 15-year warranty on the material itself.
- Single-Ply EPDM and TPO RoofingRubber and thermoplastic membranes are built for flat and low-slope roofs, resisting UV, ozone, and the thermal cycling that breaks down shingles laid flat.
What homeowners tell us after the membrane is down
Dealing with Liam was quite easy and straightforward. He came and installed Tufdek so I could put my hot tub on the deck!
Mark Melanson
We recently had Liam install Tufdek in our sunroom and we couldn't be happier with the results. He was fast, efficient, and left our property looking great. Cleaning is much quicker now. Highly recommended!

I had vinyl decking come and do my cottage deck last year and it looks great, I'm loving the colour pattern.

How a Project Actually Runs
We confirm the substrate on site, then sheet and finish edges so water has nowhere to go.
Surface Prep
The existing deck or roof surface is prepped so the new membrane bonds and seals properly.
Installation
Vinyl decking is installed as a continuous waterproof membrane, so the surface becomes one continuous waterproof system.
