Common commercial roof leaks
- Open or failed seams in TPO and EPDM membranes
- Flashing failures at parapet walls, curbs and rooftop HVAC units
- Clogged or failed drains, scuppers and gutters
- Punctures from foot traffic and equipment service
- Membrane shrinkage pulling away at the perimeter
- Ponding water that sits for days and finds its way in
How we find the leak
On a flat roof, water can travel a long way under the membrane before it drips inside. We inspect the roof and the interior, and where needed check the insulation for moisture to map the wet area, so the repair fixes the cause and not just the drip.
You get photos of what we found and a written scope before any work starts.
Repair or replace?
If the membrane is sound and wet insulation is limited, a targeted repair is the right call. If moisture is widespread or the membrane is failing across the roof, we’ll show you why replacement or a recover makes more sense. See commercial roofing.
