Signs You Need Flat Roof Replacement
The lifespan of a flat varies depending on the type of roofing material used, maintenance, the quality of installation, weather conditions, and more. From our experience, a properly installed and maintained flat roof can last 25 years or more. Some of the common signs your flat roof needs replacement include:
Pooling water on the roof: Flat roofs have limited or no slope. Thus, ponding rainwater can quickly cause extensive damage. Therefore, have one of our professional roofing technicians assess your roof to determine the cause of the water pooling.
Visible rips and tears: A ripped seam on a flat roof can cause leaks. Even minor tears can lead to extensive water damage. An expert can assess the extent of the tear of roofing systems and associated water damage. This way, we can recommend a roof replacement when necessary.
Flashing problems: Flashing covers all potential areas where rainwater could seep into a building. If your roof’s flashing begins to separate from the corners and edges, service calls to roofing experts are necessary. Minor damage can be repaired, but if you catch flashing problems too late, you may need to replace the entire roof.
Blistering and bubbling: These flat roof issues are often associated with poor roof installation, improper insulation, poor ventilation, and adhesion failure. If not addressed in a timely manner, blistering and bubbling can cause roof failure and extensive water damage.
Other signs of flat roof damage include visible roof material deterioration, damaged top coat, loose fasteners, and excessive energy bills.

Benefits of Metal Roof Installation
With proper installation and maintenance services, metal roofs can last a lifetime. They are resistant to damage associated with pests and harsh weather conditions. Consult our experienced roofing contractors to assess your flat roofing needs and install a metal roof that completes your roofing system.
Do Flat Roofs Need Drainage?
The certified and experienced roofers at Niagara Roof Masters understand the importance of a proper drainage system for flat roofs. Without proper drainage, rainwater may accumulate on the roof, resulting in leaks and structural damage that would eventually call for emergency roof leak repair.
Additionally, flat roofs should be designed to slope gently towards drains, with approximately one-quarter-inch slope per foot. Our flat roof installers will ensure proper drainage when installing flat roofs to minimize clogs, and rainwater accumulation, and the need for regular cleaning and emergency roof repairs.
