Commercial roofing leaks

A leaking commercial roof can quickly turn from a minor nuisance into a major expense. Whether you manage a warehouse, retail plaza, or office building, identifying and repairing leaks promptly is essential to protect your property, equipment, and tenants.

Common Causes of Commercial Roof Leaks

Commercial roofs—especially flat or low-slope systems—are exposed to heavy wear from weather, debris, and foot traffic. The most common causes of leaks include:

Aging membranes (TPO, PVC, EPDM, or modified bitumen) that lose elasticity.

Improper flashing around HVAC units, vents, and parapet walls.

Ponding water caused by poor drainage or clogged scuppers.

Seam separation or punctures from maintenance activity or debris.

The Repair Process

Inspection & Leak Detection:
Our technicians begin by identifying the exact source using moisture meters and infrared scanning.

Surface Preparation:
Damaged sections are cleaned and dried to ensure proper adhesion of repair materials.

Sealant or Patch Application:
We apply compatible materials—such as reinforced membranes, coatings, or sealants—to fully seal the area.

Preventive Coating:
In some cases, applying an elastomeric or silicone coating can restore the entire roof’s waterproof barrier and extend its life.

Why Professional Repair Matters

Quick DIY fixes rarely last on commercial roofs. Professional repair ensures compatibility with your existing system, maintains manufacturer warranties, and helps avoid costly full replacements.

Protect Your Investment

A well-maintained roof protects your building, business operations, and bottom line.
