Guaranteed Repairs for EPDM, GRP, and Felt Flat Roofs Across Cork

Flat roofs are a staple of many Cork extensions, garages, and commercial properties. While durable, they are constantly challenged by pooling water, intense UV exposure, and the freeze-thaw cycle, making them highly susceptible to leaks if the membrane is compromised.

A flat roof leak often spreads rapidly, causing widespread damage to ceilings and timber decking below.

At Storm Tech Roofing, we are flat roof specialists. We provide urgent, expert repair and replacement services for all modern and traditional flat roof membranes, including EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass, and torch-on felt.

We don't guess at the source of a leak; we find the breach and apply a guaranteed, seamless seal that restores your roof's integrity for decades.

The Urgent Threat of Flat Roof Leaks and Pooling Water

Because flat roofs have a shallow pitch, even minor damage can lead to a serious accumulation of water. This is an urgent threat that requires immediate professional repair.

Decking and Timber Rot

Water penetrating the top membrane soaks directly into the underlying plywood or OSB decking and joists. This rapid saturation causes timber to rot and weaken, compromising the structural stability of the roof structure itself.

Membrane Failure

Constant exposure to UV rays and extreme temperature swings causes old felt and low-quality membranes to crack, blister, and shrink. This thermal shock often leads to large, easily compromised seams and flashings.

Widespread Internal Damage

Water rarely drips directly down on a flat roof; it travels sideways, saturating vast areas of insulation and ceiling plaster before it becomes visible. This makes internal repair costs high and requires careful diagnosis to trace the source.

Improper Drainage

If a flat roof is incorrectly laid with insufficient fall (slope), water will pool, placing continuous strain on the membrane and sealants, accelerating failure. We address both the leak and the underlying drainage issue.

Frequently Asked Questions

Finding a leak on a flat roof can be challenging because water travels horizontally before dripping. We use specialized techniques, including flood testing or thermal imaging, to pinpoint the exact breach location, ensuring we repair the source of the leak, not just the drip point.

Both are excellent, modern systems. EPDM (Rubber) is highly flexible and ideal for large, complex roofs due to its ease of installation and ability to absorb building movement. GRP (Fibreglass) provides a hard, durable, non-slip surface, making it excellent for balconies and walkways. We advise based on your roof's use and size.

Blistering, common on older felt roofs, occurs when trapped moisture or air expands under the membrane due to heat. When the blister bursts, it creates a massive leak. This signals the membrane is failing and often requires replacement of that entire section.

High-quality modern membranes, like EPDM and GRP, are designed to be extremely durable, often lasting 25 to 50 years with proper installation and minimal maintenance.

If the pooling is minor, the new membrane can sometimes be laid with slight modifications. If the pooling is severe, we may recommend tapered insulation boards or minor structural adjustments to the decking to create the necessary "fall" and guide water towards the drainage outlet.
