We provide commercial roof repair services in Lexington for flat, metal, and industrial roofs, plus leak tracing when the drip and the source sit far apart.
Pick the card that matches your roof. Each of our commercial roof repair services in Lexington starts with a walk to the failed detail.
Low-slope TPO, EPDM, PVC, and modified bitumen roofs get seam, blister, puncture, and drain repairs, as long as the insulation around the damage is still dry. A core cut beside the leak settles that question before any patch goes on.
R-panel and standing seam roofs on shops, warehouses, and barns get fastener swaps, lap sealing, and rust treatment, plus profile-matched panel replacement where the steel has rusted through or been crushed.
Active and recurring leaks get traced with hose tests, infrared scans, and seam probing, then repaired at the curb, boot, pitch pan, lap, or drain that let water in. Notes on when the leak shows up narrow the search.
Large plant and distribution roofs get repairs planned around shifts, hot work permits, and lockouts, with moisture surveys wherever leaks show up in more than one place or soft spots spread past a single detail.
Match what you see to a starting point. One card points away from repair, because some roofs need more than a patch.
Seam welds, blister repairs, and drain work on the membrane come first.
Fastener and lap repairs stop most metal building leaks at the source.
Tracing works uphill from the drip until the entry point turns up.
Spot repairs keep chasing new leaks on that roof, so the talk turns to restoration or replacement.
A lifted seam edge lets more water in with every rain. Call us before the boards around it soak through.
Call UsThe same steps cover a single curb leak or a whole section of plant roof.
The visit begins at the stain, drip, or wet tile inside, then moves up to the roof area above it and every curb, drain, and seam nearby.
Probing, flood or hose tests, and a core cut where boards feel soft show whether the damage stops at one detail or spreads under the membrane.
Each roof gets its own repair material: welded TPO for TPO, primed seam tape for EPDM, and oversized screws with sealant for metal, so the repair bonds.
You receive dated photos and a short note of what failed, what was fixed, and which details to watch on the next spring and fall walk.
Answers on patch types, warning signs, taxes, and what to gather before a call.
Ceiling stains and damp insulation are what most owners spot first, but the roof shows trouble sooner. On a spring or fall walk, look for seam edges lifting on TPO or EPDM, soft spots near drains, and flashing pulling off parapets and curbs.
Screw heads backing out of metal panels and water still standing two days after rain are early signs too. Photos from each walk give you a record to compare.
A temporary roof patch only buys time. Roof cement, repair tape, or a tarp can stop water during a storm, often on a wet surface with little prep, while a permanent repair rebuilds the failed seam, flashing, or panel with matching material on a cleaned, dried, primed surface.
Mastic on a TPO seam also makes the later weld harder, so temporary work gets marked and redone.
Repairs and improvements get different tax treatment, so where a job falls matters. IRS Publication 946 lists roofs on nonresidential buildings already in service as qualified real property for Section 179, with a 2026 cap of $2,560,000 that phases out after $4,090,000.
A reflashed curb and a full membrane restoration raise different questions, so a CPA with your records makes the call.
Drip locations, the weather when it leaks, and past repair records help most. Mark where water shows up on a floor plan and note whether it leaks in light rain, heavy rain, or wind from one side.
Knowing your roof type and access point, such as a hatch or ladder, plus photos of stains or rusty deck, lets us plan before getting on the roof.
Buildings with a metal shop section and a membrane office section get both repairs in one visit. The metal side gets fasteners, laps, and flashing, and the low-slope side gets seams, curbs, and drains.
Where the two roofs meet, the transition flashing is a common leak point, so it gets its own close look, with the metal edge, the membrane termination, and the sealant between them all checked.
Once water reaches the insulation, every rain widens the wet area, so an early visit keeps the repair small. During a storm the aim is a temporary seal and cleared drains.
The permanent repair follows on the first dry day above the material's temperature limit, and the temporary material comes off first.
Send the drip location and roof type, and we will set up a visit to trace the leak and fix the detail.
