Signs Your Flat Roof May Be Leaking And In Need Of Repair?

It's important to be aware of common signs that may indicate the need for flat roofing repair or replacement. While some of these signs may not be immediately obvious, periodically inspecting your flat roof is a worthwhile task.

  • Puddles Forming: If you notice water collecting in puddles on your flat roof after rainfall, it is a clear indication of sagging. This could be due to cracks or poor installation.
  • Leaks: The presence of pools of water inside your building on the flat roof is an obvious sign of a leak. It is crucial to address the issue promptly to avoid further damage. Delaying repairs may require a full roof replacement instead of a repair.
  • Moss or Other Growths: While moss on your flat roof may seem harmless, it can lead to significant damage. The presence of moss could also indicate hidden areas where water retention is occurring.

There are additional signs that may suggest the need for flat roof repair. As flat roofing specialists, we encourage you to reach out to us for a professional opinion if you have any concerns.
