If it's just a small shed then either will do. If you're concerned then there is no reason why you could not double up. Or use a thinner layer as a base, and then put the one you have shown on top.I can afford anything that I want.
Just so long as I don't want much.0 -

If you read the description of the first item, you will see that is specifically for '2 layer traditional roll and pour roofing'.0 -
I would always recommend EPDM rubber roofing, it just seems like the sensible choice nowadays as you know it's going to be extremely durable. I recently got my roof re-done, and found a useful site to get an estimate and all the materials from waterproofsystems.co.uk0
