Flat roofs in North London

Most flat roof leaks aren't just the surface wearing out. They're the deck or the drainage underneath, and that's what needs fixing.

Why flat roofs fail

Water that sits in puddles for days finds every weakness. Ponding usually means the fall is wrong or the deck has sagged, and no coating will fix that for long.

Blistering, cracking and splits around the edges are the other common signs, along with damp patches on the ceiling underneath.

The proper fix is to strip the old roof, check and replace the deck, and build the roof back up. See how the layers go on.

Torch-on felt

Torch-on felt is laid in layers, heat-sealed onto the deck and worked up into the edges and upstands, then finished with a mineral top sheet that protects it from sun and weather.

My flat roof keeps leaking after repairs. Why?

Usually because the problem is the deck or the fall rather than the covering. If water sits on the roof for days after rain, surface repairs won't hold; it needs re-decking to the correct fall.
