Our garden rooms and SIP extensions are finished with a high-quality EPDM rubber roofing system as standard, providing a long-lasting, fully watertight solution designed for minimal maintenance and maximum protection.
EPDM is one of the most reliable flat and low-pitch roofing materials, making it perfect for modern garden buildings and extensions.
What is EPDM Rubber Roofing?
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) is a durable synthetic rubber membrane designed specifically for roofing. It’s flexible and weather-resistant and is installed in a single continuous sheet to reduce the risk of leaks and weak points.
We use EPDM rubber roofing as standard on our garden buildings, as it’s perfectly suited to both our flat and pent roof designs. It gives your garden room a clean, contemporary finish while offering excellent protection from the elements, all at a more cost-effective price point than traditional timber or tiled roofing.
EPDM also works seamlessly with our integrated uPVC fascias, soffits and guttering, as well as our optional roof overhangs and canopy extensions, creating a durable, well-finished roofline that looks great and performs reliably year after year.

Lovely team to liaise with from beginning to end. Swift work and lovely finish.Posted on Andy GambleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From the initial quote right through to completion of our single storey SIP extension, we were in safe hands. We were surprised by how fast everything was! Dan will go above and beyond to make sure that the customer is happy - he will suggest ideas, and alternatives, but will ultimately do whatever you ask for. He will answer all your questions. The team that did the build were a friendly crew; the office team were always patient and helpful when I asked for updates. We are very happy with our extension and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this company.Posted on Dave HallTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were impressed with Greenleaf. They were really helpful from the initial enquiry through to subsequent queries when we were finalising the design. The installers were a professional bunch as well and were good to work with. We’re very happy with the end result.Posted on Aidan StanwayTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!!! Don't believe a word that comes out of this con mans mouth, he'll offer you the world and promise everything and screw you over at the first chance with absolute rubbish, we had a garden room built (if you can call it that) which he said it was a summer house, we had to have another company come in to sort a lot of very sub par work from these cowboys. We took him to court and won but because of the con man way he liquidated his company owing us and many suppliers a lot of money only to start trading the very next day, I'm sure he's done this before and he'll only do it again at other peoples cost. AVOID AVOID AVOID!!!!!Posted on Emma CarterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A superb experience from start to finish. Our extension was built exactly to our requirements. We had lots of questions and these were all answered quickly and professionally. Despite the weather not always being on our side, the build was completed within the week’s quoted time frame and completed to the highest of standards. All of the staff were professional and efficient throughout. Lots of people have commented on how good the extension looks! We would whole-heartedly recommend this company.Posted on freemomTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dan and his building team were fantastic. Could't believe they built my 5x3m garden house just in a few days. They had long drive to my place but still popped up in the early morning. They were professional and with good workmanship. The communication within the company was so good that they didn't make any mistake throughout the whole process. They could build exactly what I wanted. We were so happy for making the right choice. Can't recommend the team enough!Posted on J MMTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our build has been a massive investment for me to contemplate and I wanted to be 100% sure that they would provide the best for us - & they did ... I'm surprised they didn't turn down the job as I had a 1000 questions, before even starting ... But I honestly can not recommend the whole team enough! They have all been fantastic, they are friendly & approachable, give honest opinions but ultimately make sure that you are happy with the build, from start to finish, they have gone above and beyond. It is clear that they all take pride in what they do. I would not hesitate to recommend them. Thank you Dan and your team.Posted on Robert ChesnerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Brilliant quality garden room. Looks great!
