Flat Roof Drainage Problems That Cause Leaks

Low spots, blocked drains, or poor slope can keep water on the roof longer than intended.

Standing water accelerates membrane wear and can find weak seams or penetrations.

Flat roof leaks often involve parapet flashing, roof edges, scuppers, drains, or membrane transitions.

A proper assessment looks at the whole drainage path.

Some flat roof issues can be repaired. Widespread membrane age, seam failure, or chronic drainage problems may require a larger scope.
