Pick A Starting Point

Which Commercial Roof Repair Service Fits My Building?

Most buildings need one service and some need two. Match what you see on your roof to the two lists below.

Start With Flat or Metal Repair When

  • Water stands near a drain or along a membrane lap
  • Screw rows or end laps on steel panels drip
  • Blisters or a soft spot sit in one area
  • Rust has holed one or two eave panels
  • Trim at a ridge or wall has pulled loose

Start With Leak or Industrial Repair When

  • A stain inside has no clear match on the roof
  • Drips show up only after snowmelt or downpours
  • Exhaust fans and stacks crowd the roof
  • Residue has softened membrane around equipment
  • Repairs need to fit around line changeovers

Unsure Which Repair Your Roof Needs?

Describe the roof and where water shows up. We will name the service that fits and set a time to inspect.

How The Work Runs

One Inspection Comes Before Every Repair Service

Whatever the roof, the first visit looks at the same details so the repair lands on the real opening.

Inspection Work OrderColumbus, Indiana
  1. Check the Ceiling and Deck

    Stains, drips, and rusted deck flutes inside show where water has been reaching. We mark each one before anyone climbs the ladder.

    At The Building
  2. Walk the Whole Roof

    Each edge, lap, drain, and curb gets looked at and photographed, even when one leak seems obvious, because roofs rarely fail at a single point.

    On The Roof
  3. Read the Insulation

    Meter readings and a few cores separate dry areas from wet ones, which decides how large each repair becomes.

    On The Roof
  4. Match the Service to the Detail

    The scope sorts repairs by service: drain and lap work under flat roof repair, screws and panels under metal repair, curbs and fans under industrial repair.

What Each Repair Service Fixes Most

Six conditions bring most Columbus owners to us. Each points to the service that handles it.

Debris

Standing Water at a Low Drain

You See
Water left near a drain two days after rain.
What It Means
Flat roof repair clears the bowl, resets the clamp, and fixes the flashing so water drains again.
Movement

Loose Screws Along Panel Rows

You See
Drips lined up under the purlins after rain.
What It Means
Metal roof repair swaps each loose screw for a larger one with a fresh sealing washer.
Snowmelt

A Drip Days After Snowfall

You See
Water on the floor once the snow on the roof starts melting.
What It Means
Leak repair follows the water from the drip back to the lap or curb that opened in the cold.
Heat

Soft Membrane by a Fan

You See
Spongy, stained sheet around an exhaust fan curb.
What It Means
Industrial repair cuts out the damaged sheet and re-flashes the curb in material rated for heat.
Wind

Seam Ends Curling at the Edge

You See
Curled lap ends along the roof perimeter.
What It Means
Flat roof repair rewelds or tapes the lap so wind-driven rain stays out.
Rust

Holes Along a Metal Eave

You See
Rusted-through panel bottoms just above the gutter.
What It Means
Metal roof repair swaps the panel for one with a matching profile and gauge.
Questions

Repair Service Questions From Columbus Building Owners

How the four services overlap and how to choose between them.

  1. Can one visit cover more than one service?

    Yes. A plant with a membrane roof over its offices and a steel roof over the shop gets both inspected on one visit, and the scope lists repairs for each roof under its own service.

  2. Is leak repair separate from flat or metal repair?

    Leak repair is the tracing work. Once the opening is found, the fix itself uses flat or metal roof methods, so the services often run together on one job.

  3. Do you repair built-up and modified bitumen roofs?

    Older Columbus buildings often carry built-up or modified bitumen roofs, and those get repaired with compatible asphalt-based materials. Cores show how many layers sit on the deck before any cut-out.

  4. Which service handles a leaking skylight?

    On a steel roof, the skylight panel and its laps fall under metal roof repair. On a membrane roof, the curb flashing around the skylight falls under flat roof repair.

  5. Which commercial roof repair service fits my building if I cannot get on the roof?

    Start with leak repair. We begin inside under the stain, then go up with the right equipment, so you only need to tell us where water shows up and how to reach the roof hatch or ladder.

  6. What Does the First Visit Cost?

    The roof inspection and estimate are free. Afterward you get a written scope with a price for each repair, sorted by service, so you can choose what to fix first.
