How We Fix Your Ponding Roof: A Step-By-Step Guide

Roofs are essential for any building, providing shelter and protection from various elements such as rain, wind, and sun. However, constant exposure to weather conditions makes flat and low slope commercial roofs prone to damage over time. One common issue you might face is ponding on your roof.

Water pooling, or ponding, on your commercial building’s rooftop can be more than just an ugly sight; it can degrade roofing materials, leading to leaks and potentially costly repairs. But don’t worry! We’ll share how to fix a ponding roof! 

Sometimes, small ponding issues can be handled during a regular commercial roof inspection. Here are some procedures we include during a roof inspection to tackle minor ponding problems:

  1. Unclog gutters and downspouts because when they’re clogged, they can cause water to collect on your roof, leading to ponding. Clean them regularly to ensure proper drainage.
  2. Check for debris! Leaves, branches, and other debris can block water flow on your roof, causing ponding. Remove any debris that might be blocking the drainage system.
  3. Inspecting your roof for damage is a must. Check for tears, cracks, and other forms of damage on your roof’s surface. If we find any, we patch them using high quality repair materials.

Not all ponding issues can be fixed with simple solutions. If the issue persists or if the ponding covers a large area, it’s time to call Moser Roofing Solutions to provide industrial roofing services.

Experienced industrial roofing craftsmen have the training, tools, and talent to diagnose the root cause of the problem and provide a long-term solution. They might recommend roof restoration, installing additional drains, or even a comprehensive roof replacement, depending on the severity of the issue.

Neglecting a ponding roof can have severe consequences. Damaged interiors and compromised structural integrity can create problems for your building and your business. On the other hand, timely intervention can help to reduce these threats and potentially costly expenses.

A well-maintained roof is crucial for the longevity of your building and the safety of its occupants. Moser Roofing Solutions is committed to quality, ensuring your commercial property remains protected from the elements. Reach out to us for inspections, maintenance, repairs, replacements, and more!

Remember: Your roof protects your business. We protect your roof.
