Hello dear building experts,

I have a small question for you.

We are currently building a new carport on our property. The foundations are done, and next week the carpenter will come to assemble it.

Now I have a question about roof waterproofing.

I have read through some forums. Some say it should be sealed with a torch-on membrane G200 S4, while others suggest that using an EPDM membrane would be better.

What is the opinion here in the forum?

The roof is normally intended for extensive green roofing, which I will not be doing. Instead, I will put a rough gravel layer on top.

Regards, André

.. both options are feasible ... it’s simply a matter of budget ... with the membrane, the key factor is the thickness, and the membrane serves as the entire roof covering ....
