Flat and low-slope roofs are common on older Laredo homes, additions, porches, and many commercial buildings, and they leak differently than a pitched shingle roof. Without gravity to quickly shed water, ponding, membrane seams, and drain areas become the primary leak points, and small membrane punctures can leak for a long time before showing up inside.
We repair TPO, modified bitumen, and built-up flat roof systems, addressing seam separation, membrane punctures, ponding water issues, and failed drains or scuppers.
Flat roofs with inadequate slope can hold standing water after rain, which stresses the membrane and accelerates wear at that location.
Membrane seams are glued, heat-welded, or taped depending on the system, and any of these bonds can fail over time, especially under heat cycling.
Foot traffic, HVAC service work, or debris can puncture the membrane, creating a direct leak point.
Clogged or deteriorated drains prevent water from leaving the roof properly, increasing ponding and leak risk.
We walk the entire roof to check seams, drains, flashing, and membrane condition.
We identify areas holding water and determine whether drainage correction is needed.
Failed seams are re-bonded or re-welded, and punctures are patched with compatible membrane material.
Clogged or damaged drainage components are cleared or repaired.
Where practical, we verify drainage and repair integrity before finishing.
We provide flat & low-slope roof leak repair throughout Laredo, TX and the surrounding Webb County communities.
Minor, brief ponding after heavy rain is common on many flat roofs, but water sitting for more than about two days indicates a drainage issue that should be evaluated to prevent long-term membrane damage.
