Repair roof
- Bituminous and PVC/TPO roofs are easy to maintain and repair. Their heat-welded seams remain weldable throughout their service life, which makes any repair, maintenance or modifications to install new equipment fast and simple.
- Typically repair of a heat – welded membrane, such as TPO or PVC consists of welding a patch on the membrane over the hole that has been discovered as the source of a leak, or re-welding a void in the seam.
- If no leaks occur, its still recommended to re-seam (apply 6 inch cover tape over all seams) an EPDM rubber membrane every 7-10 years, when adhesive starts to naturally fail.
- Built-up roofs are very difficult to repair, or even to find a leak.
A relatively small investment in a professional Roof inspector can save you a ton of time attempting to do it yourself, and give you peace of mind that the job was done right!
