Follow water through the low-slope assembly
Seams, drains, scuppers and equipment curbs interrupt the roof surface. A split seam or failed drain connection gives water a way below the membrane. From there it can move through insulation and along the deck, appearing inside away from the original defect.
The inspection identifies the system and follows those connections. Repair materials have to be compatible with the existing membrane. TPO, EPDM and modified bitumen do not use one interchangeable patch method.
Standing water also needs a reason established. Debris at a drain, inadequate slope and deck movement call for different work. A patch can close a hole without correcting the water that keeps returning to it.
A contained repair or a larger roof project
Repair can preserve useful roofing when the remaining assembly is dependable.
Contained failure
A puncture, seam or flashing defect in sound material supports a compatible local repair. Any wet underlying material in that area needs attention.
A recurring or widespread condition
Leaks in multiple areas, saturated insulation, unstable support or poor drainage call for broader planning. Coating alone does not repair what is failing below it.
