Water entering the building
Leaks, ceiling stains, and damp areas should be checked before the damage spreads. Water can travel beneath a flat roof surface, so the spot where it appears inside may not be the point where it entered.

Overview
A commercial flat roof can show problems in several places at once. Water may collect around drains, enter at a seam, or find its way through a roof penetration before the source is clear from inside the building.
RTI Roofing & Tuckpointing provides commercial flat roof installation, repairs, and maintenance throughout Northwest Indiana and nearby Illinois communities. Depending on the roof's condition and project requirements, services may include roof tear-offs, overlays, protective roof coatings, and repairs to TPO, EPDM, or modified bitumen roofing systems.
Symptoms
When to call
Standing water on the roof
Pooled water after rain can point to a drainage concern or an area of the roof that is not shedding water properly. Recurring ponding deserves attention even when the interior of the building is still dry.
Visible wear or damage
Cracks, open seams, punctures, and damaged areas can leave a commercial roof more exposed to weather. Calling when the problem is first noticed may help prevent a small concern from becoming a larger one.
An aging or neglected roof
A roof that has not been inspected recently may have issues that are not visible from the ground. Regular attention can identify worn areas, drainage concerns, and other conditions that affect the building.
Our process
How the visit goes
-
Review the roof and building
We start by discussing the leak, damage, or other concern and examining the accessible roof areas. The goal is to understand the roof's condition rather than rely on the first visible symptom.
-
Identify problem areas
We look over the roof surface, seams, drainage areas, and penetrations for signs of damage or wear. Visible findings are explained in plain terms so you know what requires attention.
-
Discuss the recommended work
You receive an explanation of the work that may be needed for the condition observed. We can address repair or service needs based on the roof's current situation and the scope agreed upon.
-
Complete the roof work
Once the scope is approved, the agreed commercial flat roof work is completed and the serviced areas are reviewed. For urgent roofing issues, 24/7 emergency roofing service is available.

Can you find a commercial flat roof leak?
We inspect the roof and the areas connected to the reported concern to identify visible signs of damage or wear. Because water can travel beneath a flat roof surface, the interior stain may not be directly below the entry point.
Should I call if the roof is only ponding water?
Yes. Recurring standing water should be reviewed even when it has not caused an interior leak. An assessment can identify whether the drainage area or another part of the roof needs attention.
How is commercial flat roof work priced?
The quote is based on the roof's condition, the location and extent of the concern, access to the property, and the work included in the agreed scope. The roof needs to be reviewed before an accurate quote can be provided.
Do you offer urgent commercial flat roof service?
Yes. RTI Roofing & Tuckpointing provides 24/7 emergency roofing service in Highland, IN, throughout Northwest Indiana and nearby Illinois communities. Contact us if you have an urgent commercial roof leak or other roofing emergency.
