What goes into the price

You pay for the visit, the tracing work, the preparation, the repair materials and the sealing itself. The figure moves with the area damaged, the membrane type and whatever state the boards are in underneath.

Looked at and put right

  • Detailed visual examination of the membrane, drip trims and perimeter flashings
  • Cleaning and clearing moss, silt and loose chippings from the repair zone
  • Patching tears, splits and punctures using material-matched bonding agents
  • Resealing loose laps, joints and detailing around roof penetrations
  • Checking rainwater outlets and gutter discharge points for clear drainage
  • A contained split on a small roof is a shorter job than cracking spread across a wide covering.
  • Felt, GRP and rubber each take their own primers, adhesives and tapes, and that difference shows in the price.
  • Decking that has rotted needs carpentry before patching, so an old leak costs more to put right than a fresh one.

What happens on the day

Ceiling stains lie about where water gets in, so the inspection starts on the roof, not in the room, and works backwards to where it entered.

  • Walk the coveringThe surface is checked for ponding, punctures, open laps and sealant failure where the roof meets walls, parapets and rooflights.
  • Probe the deckSoft spots, bounce and rot in the boards under the membrane tell us how long water has been getting through and how far it has spread.
  • The plan before anything startsYou get told if a localised repair restores watertightness or if the damage calls for more, with options set out before any work begins.

Flat roof questions answered

Will a flat roof repair hold if it rains the next day?

Once cured, yes, which is why sealing work waits for a dry surface. Adhesives, resins and tapes bond properly to a dry membrane, and in wet spells temporary protection keeps water out until conditions allow.

How does a roofer find a flat roof leak?

By working backwards from the ceiling mark, then checking the covering above for open seams, splits, flashing failure and standing water. We locate the entry point on the roof rather than guessing from indoors.

Do dormer and porch flat roofs get repaired too?

Any flat covering can be repaired: porch, dormer, extension, garage or outbuilding. The membrane type decides the materials, not the size of the roof.

What are the signs a flat roof needs repairing?

Ceiling stains, damp smells in the room below, visible blisters or cracks on the covering, water sitting days after rain and drips at the edges all say the roof needs looking at.

Can moss on a flat roof cause leaks?

Moss holds water against the membrane and its roots work into laps and seams. The repair zone gets cleaned of moss, silt and stray chippings so the patch bonds to the covering, not the growth.
