Good morning and welcome, what is the issue you have? Flat roofs fail for various reasons and done properly are nothing to be scared of.

Flat roofs often fail because the are too flat.  A roof is considered to be flat if it is less than 10 degrees.

Yup. EPDM seems to wrinkle up a lot, and doesn't look good when it does imho. Long linear wrinkles holding water when at its worst.

GRP is stable, concrete solid, and has great longevity. Colours can be manipulated by simply choosing different top-coats.

Needs to be done properly, and not by someone who is skimping on the product eg leaving you with a wafer thin end product.

Ask questions, and get answers in writing.
