Not got an issue with the edge trim or epdm as such its just where the corner of the flat roof meets tiles is my main concern(maybe overthinking it?!) This explains what I mean - https://www.mig-welding.co.uk/forum/threads/epdm-flat-roof-join-pitched-roof.62546/ This image...

This is what I'm fitting - https://www.rubber4roofs.co.uk/shop/sure-edge-kerb-trim-2-5m which compresses down onto the epdm and also covers the top of the fascia. The people at rubber4roofs did say I could stick the epdm to the lead as it was but I think it would be better and I would prefer...
