Fixing flat roof leaks before they spread
We repair leaking flat roofs on garages and similar areas where a full replacement isn't always needed. At Spencer Roofing Services in Barnsley, we start by finding the true cause of the problem, from worn seams on EPDM rubber to small punctures, failed joints or water getting in at the edges. Our flat roof leak repair work helps you stop drips, damp patches and ongoing water damage with a practical fix that suits the roof you already have.
Repairs that tackle joints, edges and drainage
We look beyond the obvious stain on your ceiling and check the points where flat roofs often fail. That includes junctions where the roof meets walls, flashing and roof edges, along with guttering issues that can cause standing water and repeat leaks. We can repair damaged EPDM details, sort tears and weak seams, and deal with gutter defects as part of the job. If repairs won't last, we'll say so clearly. Spencer Roofing Services can also replace a garage sized EPDM roof, often within a day, when that is the better call.
Frequently asked questions
Can you repair an EPDM flat roof, or will it need replacing?
We always inspect the roof first and look at the condition of the membrane, seams, edges and junctions. If the leak is local and the roof is still sound, we can often repair it. If the damage is wider or the repair is unlikely to last, we'll recommend replacement instead.
What parts of a flat roof usually cause leaks?
Leaks often start at seams, punctures, edge details and the points where the flat roof meets a wall or flashing. We also check guttering and drainage because blocked or leaking gutters can leave water sitting on the roof and make the problem worse over time.
How do you decide between flat roof repair and replacement?
We follow a simple process. We inspect the roof, trace the source of water ingress and assess the condition of the surrounding area. Then we explain the best option in plain terms. If replacement is the smarter choice, we can often complete a garage sized EPDM roof in a day.
