Flat roof problems we fix every week

Flat roofs work hard. They sit under standing water, bake in summer and freeze in winter, and every joint and edge is a potential weak point. When one leaks, the water often appears some distance from the actual fault. That's why so many "repairs" fail: someone patched the wrong spot.

Our flat roofing specialists trace the leak back to its source before recommending anything. Then we repair it with materials compatible with the existing roof, so the repair bonds and lasts.

  • Splits, blisters and cracks in felt
  • Lifting or failed seams on EPDM rubber roofs
  • Cracks in GRP fibreglass roofs
  • Ponding water from sagging decks or poor falls
  • Failed upstands and flashings where the roof meets a wall
  • Leaking edge trims, outlets and gutters
  • Rotten decking boards replaced
  • Lead flat roofs on bays and porches

Repair or replace?

A flat roof in good overall condition with one defect should be repaired. A roof with repeated leaks, soft spots across the deck, or felt that is cracking all over has reached the end of its life. Patching it again is money down the drain.

We'll give you our honest opinion either way. If replacement makes more sense, we can fit a new flat roof in EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass or modern felt. See our flat roofing in Lincoln page for details.

Flat Roof Repairs: Your Questions Answered

Answers to the questions we get asked most by homeowners across Lincoln and Lincolnshire.

Why is my flat roof leaking?

The most common causes are failed joints or upstands, splits from age and temperature changes, ponding water, and blocked outlets. The leak inside often appears away from the actual fault, which is why we trace it before repairing.

Can you repair an EPDM rubber roof?

Yes. EPDM can usually be repaired with compatible primers, tapes and patches, provided the membrane is otherwise sound.

Can a flat roof be repaired in wet weather?

Most flat roof materials need a dry surface to bond. In wet weather we make the roof watertight temporarily, then complete the permanent repair when conditions allow.

How long does a flat roof repair take?

Most repairs are completed in a day. Replacing rotten decking or re-covering a section can take longer, and we'll tell you when we quote.
