    EPDM vs metal insulated panel roof - rain noise

    We're getting a garden room built and I'm looking at the different roof options. We can either have EPDM roof on OSB with insulation below or 100mm Kingspan insulated metal panels. I much prefer the look of the metal roof but I'm curious as to whether it would increase the noise from rain...

    I’ve just had a full central heating setup installed into my ‘older’ property. Mostly, everything feels fine (and warm).
