What shapes the repair price
The figure covers finding the leak, getting the membrane ready, plus the materials and sealing work. It moves with the area needing repair, the covering material and the state of the deck below.
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 short split on a porch roof prices lower than cracking running across a big extension covering.
- Each membrane takes different primers and tapes, so rubber, fibreglass and felt repairs are not priced alike.
- Boards that have gone soft need carpentry before sealing, and that extra work shows in the final figure.

What happens on the day
The visit starts on the covering, not at the stain, because water runs along the structure before it ever reaches the ceiling.
- Check where coverings let goSeams, laps, flashings, drip trims and the seals around anything poking through are examined for gaps, lifting and wear.
- Test what lies beneathThe boards get pressed for softness and bounce, because a spongy deck under the leak changes the answer from patch to something more.
- Your options before anything startsYou hear the verdict first: a localised patch to restore watertightness, or wider work if the damage asks for it. Nothing begins until the choice is made.

Questions and answers on flat roof repair
Can anything be done for a flat roof while it is still raining?
More water can be kept out with temporary measures while it rains, but a lasting bond on felt, GRP or rubber needs a dry surface to cure onto. The sealing work goes ahead once conditions dry out.
How will you know where the water is coming in?
By tracing it, not guessing it. The ceiling mark shows where water ended up, so the inspection covers seams, joints, flashings, outlets and ponded spots until the true entry point shows itself.
Will you patch the membrane I already have?
Yes, and the patch material is matched to what is up there: felt patches for felt, EPDM tape for rubber, resin repairs for fibreglass. A matched bond is what makes a patch last.
Does a flat roof repair mean stripping the roof?
No. Only the damaged zone gets worked on, along with the seams immediately around it. Everything still doing its job is left alone.
What if the boards under my roof have rotted?
Then patching alone will not hold, and you hear that honestly at the visit. Rotted timber is the difference between a repair and wider work, and the options get laid out either way.
