Ponding water on your flat roof after it rains?
How to fix standing water fast with a local TPO and EPDM flat roofing pro in Independence, KY.
The rain stops but your flat roof holds water for days. You see puddles that sit and sit near the low spots. That ponding water can push through seams over time. You need a fix that lasts through Independence weather.
That water sitting on your roof has a simple cause. Your flat roof should drain toward the scupper or drain box. Over time, the roof deck can settle or the insulation can compress. This makes low spots where water collects. The membrane itself may still be good. But constant water weight and UV rays hitting the puddle can break it down faster. A roofer finds the low spot and the drain issue fast.
What it costs to fix depends on what you need. A simple drain cleaning or small seam patch may run a few hundred dollars. If the deck has a big sag, you may need a tapered insulation overlay. That can run a few thousand. A full TPO or EPDM replacement costs more but stops the problem for 20 years or more. Every roof is different. The scope changes based on how much water sits and for how long.
Call TruRoof this week for a flat roof check. We walk your roof, find the low spots, and check every seam and drain. We explain what you need in plain English. Do not wait until a small puddle turns into a ceiling leak inside your warehouse or store. A quick fix now stops a big bill later.

What people in Independence say
"I'm reviewing my two new roofs, on my house and my garage, installed by TruRoof. The company, and Damon Chuke, their representative, helped me work with the insurance company, and with understanding all the details of the whole process. They took out an obsolete chimney, were on time and professional, and the finished roofs and flashing are beautiful. Many compliments from neighbors. Highly recommended by me."
"We have a beautiful condo in a historic building from the 1840s. Late November had a bad leak in the dining room area. I called Britt at TruRoof who came out and inspected the entire roof of the building. He said to do the entire roof could be around $50,000. But then he started laughing and said you need to caulk the area around one of the chimneys. I thought he was nuts, but I did the caulking, which cost me about 25 bucks worth of outdoor caulk, and there are no more leaks. I cannot express my appreciation for his diligence and his honesty. That kind of a company and a person is rare these days. Highly, highly, highly recommend these guys."
"TruRoof did an outstanding job from start to finish. Communication leading up to the start date was great. Once on site and the project started, everything went as discussed, and the crew was very professional."
