Signs you need flat roof junction and flashing repairs

  • Leak near the lantern but not from the frame
  • Splits, blisters or lifted edges in the roof covering by the kerb
  • Missing or loose edge trims and flashings

Common causes we find

Unbonded membrane

EPDM or single-ply that has come away from the kerb lets water run behind it.

Missing trims

Without a trim or flashing to protect the top edge, water gets in behind the membrane.

About Bearsden and the G61 area

Damp, mild winters keep moss and algae growing on flat roofs and lantern frames, which holds water against seals and blocks weep slots. Regular clearing makes a real difference in wetter areas.

Urban grime and traffic film dull glass and frames quickly; a clean and seal check makes a tired lantern look and perform much better.
