Small tear in your TPO roof? Don’t tape it.
A permanent heat-weld fix from TruRoof, your local TPO and EPDM flat roofing team in Union, KY.
You were on your flat roof in Union, checking the HVAC, and spotted a small tear in the TPO. It hasn’t leaked inside yet, but you know how Kentucky winds can turn a tiny rip into a big problem. A quick fix now beats a major repair later.
A tear in TPO roofing looks like a cut or split in the white or black membrane. Even a small one lets water seep under the sheet. That water can rot the insulation and decking below. Wind can catch the edge and peel it back fast. What starts as a small rip can ruin a whole section of roof.
A professional heat-weld repair on a small tear usually takes less than an hour. The cost depends on the tear size and roof access, but it is far less than replacing insulation or a whole roof. Tape or caulk might seal it for a while, but they fail under sun and rain. A weld bonds the patch directly to the membrane for a permanent seal.
Call TruRoof as soon as you can. We will send a crew to clean the area, cut a patch, and heat-weld it into place. The repair is fast and permanent. Do not wait for the next storm. A small tear fixed today keeps your building dry and your costs low.
Once the repair is done, your roof is watertight again. You will not have to worry about hidden leaks or insulation damage. You saved yourself a bigger headache. And you can get back to running your business with one less thing on your mind.
What people in Union 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."
