Roof leaks even after it has stopped raining.

On our way to an emergency repair.building manager called us with roof leaks taking place all over the multi-unit building 

roof leaks,visible all over the place.
 

another badly affected unit,tenants needles to say are very concerned about the condition of the roof covering their respective units.in this case the water dripped so heavily the damage extended onto the rest of the ceiling.

the following morning!
this roof holds so much water,all the drains were clogged up with debri,water was definitely stressing the faulty seams

after several hours of sweeping water away.preparation is very important.otherwise the material will not stick.
the surface must be dry and primed.
 

existing roof has definitely seen better years.

most defects or openings are found after a diligent search,this is where experience and know how play their role.

this seams are stressed because of the low area where they're located.
water will pond,the drastic change in temperature will split the seams open.

standing water will travel underneath the roofing material.and the leak will show up somewhere completely different.

this is where regular periodic maintenance will save the day.
Nothing will last forever,the same applies to your roof.
all these roof leaks could have been prevented

We applied permanent patches all over these openings.
the surface was dried,and the openings torched down,primed and sealed.

This roof needs to be coated with a fibered reflective coating,until it is replaced.

taking advantage of the weather.definitely bound to change.
notice all the patches applied over the defective seams,no wonder why the leaks appeared in different areas of the building.

Every roof protrusion could be a potential roof leak,the seal at the base of this pipe needs to be sealed.

a roof coating will be suggested,since we are only here as an emergency,but also a replacement should be kept in mind.

we concentrated on all the open seams above the affected portions of the building

we have to comeback before the snow comes down,a preventative maintenance plan will be suggested.
and try to stop the roof leaks before they even happen.roof maintenance.its the keyword.

we are glad we could fix this problems.building manager and homeowners alike.call us for all your roof issues.
