Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the leak inside my building not directly below the roof damage?
On flat roofs, water often travels along the membrane, insulation, or decking before it finds a way inside. The drip you see on your ceiling can be 10–20 feet from where the water actually enters. That's why proper diagnosis matters.
Can you always find the source of a flat roof leak?
In most cases, yes. We use visual inspection, moisture mapping, and controlled water testing to pinpoint leak sources. Occasionally, tricky leaks need a follow-up visit during rainfall to confirm.
How quickly should I get a leak repaired?
As soon as possible. Even a small leak can saturate insulation, encourage mold growth, and cause structural damage if left unchecked. The longer you wait, the more expensive the fix.
Is it cheaper to fix the leak or replace the whole roof?
If the leak is localized and the rest of the roof is in decent shape, repair is almost always more cost-effective. We'll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you repair leaks on all types of flat roofs?
Yes — EPDM, TPO, PVC, modified bitumen, and built-up roofing. Each system has specific repair methods, and our crew is trained on all of them.
What if the leak comes back after your repair?
We stand behind our work. If a repaired leak reappears, we'll come back and make it right. Our goal is a permanent fix, not a temporary patch.
