Signs you need flat roof junction and flashing repairs

  • Splits, blisters or lifted edges in the roof covering by the kerb
  • Missing or loose edge trims and flashings
  • Ponding on the roof next to the lantern

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.
