EPDM 12 Rubber RoofingYour Local Roofer Who Actually Shows Up
A while back, we got a call from a homeowner right here in Waldoboro, ME. The wind had picked up the night before, the kind of wind that rattles old windows and keeps you awake. By morning, a few shingles were scattered across the yard. They didn’t want a big sales pitch. They just wanted a roofer who would answer the phone and show up.
That’s how we do things at EPDM 12 Rubber Roofing. We’re a team, not a call center. When someone reaches out, we picture their house the way we’d picture our own. A roof isn’t just boards and shingles. It’s what keeps your kids dry at night. It’s what protects the photos in the attic and the dog sleeping by the back door.
Roof services we handle around here
Roof Installation
We recently helped a couple building a new home outside the center of town. They were excited, and nervous. New builds come with a lot of choices. Our roof installation process walked them through shingle colors, ventilation, and how snow would slide in winter. When it was done, they told us the roof made the whole house feel real. That’s the part we love.
Roof Repair
Sometimes it’s not a full redo. It’s one stubborn leak over the kitchen sink. Roof repair calls are common after heavy rain rolls through Waldoboro, ME. We’ll climb up, take photos, and show you exactly what’s going on. A small flashing issue or a few missing shingles can often be fixed fast. And fast matters when water is dripping near your light fixture.
Rubber Roofing
We see rubber roofing a lot on garages and low-slope sections. One homeowner had a flat area that kept pooling water. Shingles just weren’t cutting it. We installed a strong rubber system that handled the standing water with no fuss. Now when it rains, they don’t even think about it. That’s how it should be.
Roof Replacement
There was a family living in an older farmhouse. The roof had been patched so many times it looked like a quilt. At some point, roof repair just isn’t enough. We talked through a full roof replacement, explained the timeline, and kept the yard clean during the tear-off. When we finished, the house looked tighter, stronger. Like it could handle another long Maine winter.
EPDM Roofing
EPDM roofing works great for certain flat or low-slope roofs. It’s flexible, which helps with temperature swings. We installed EPDM roofing on a small commercial building in town, and the owner liked how simple and clean it looked. No complicated layers, just a solid membrane doing its job day after day.
Chimney Repair
One thing people don’t always think about is chimney repair. But cracked bricks or failing mortar can lead to leaks fast. We were up on a roof last fall and noticed the chimney crown was crumbling. We fixed it before snow hit. That quick chimney repair likely saved them from interior damage when the freeze and thaw cycle kicked in.
Gutter Installation
Gutter installation might not sound exciting, but it makes a huge difference. Without good gutters, water dumps right next to your foundation. We helped a homeowner whose basement kept getting damp. After installing new gutters and extending the downspouts, the problem eased up. Water finally moved away from the house like it should.

Why folks here keep calling us
This town has a mix of older homes, newer builds, and everything in between. Being a roofer in a coastal Maine area means dealing with wind, salt air, heavy snow, and ice dams. We’ve learned how roofs behave here. And we don’t cut corners because we know the next storm will test our work.
Homeowners tell us they like that we explain things in plain language. We show photos. We answer texts. If we say we’ll be there Tuesday morning, we’re there Tuesday morning. It’s not fancy. It’s just how we think a local roofing company should operate.
We also clean up after ourselves. Nails in the driveway are not okay. We run magnets and double check the yard. Many of our new customers heard about us from a neighbor or a friend. Word travels fast in a place like this, and we take that seriously.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you service all parts of Waldoboro, ME?
Yes, we travel throughout the entire town and surrounding roads within Waldoboro, ME. Whether you’re near the main highway or further out in a rural spot, we’ll come out and take a look. Just give us a call and we’ll set it up.
How do I know if I need a roof repair or a full roof replacement?
It depends on the age of the roof and how widespread the damage is. If it’s a small isolated issue, a repair might be enough. If shingles are failing across large sections or the roof is past its lifespan, replacement may make more sense. We’ll show you photos and explain our thoughts so you can decide comfortably.
How much does it cost to hire a roofer in this area?
Costs vary based on roof size, material choice, and how complex the job is. A simple repair is far less than a full tear-off and replacement. We provide clear estimates after inspecting your roof so you know exactly what you’re paying for and why.
