Common Cause of Flat Roof Leaks: Cracked Penetrations

Cracked membranes around roof penetrations, such as vents, pipes, and skylights, are a common source of leaks. These cracks allow water to infiltrate the roof, leading to a cascade of problems. Water intrusion can weaken the structural integrity of the roof, causing sagging, cracking, and even collapse. Furthermore, it creates a breeding ground for mold and mildew, compromising indoor air quality and potentially leading to health issues. Persistent leaks can also damage insulation, leading to increased energy costs and discomfort.

At Anchor Point Roofing, we specialize in addressing these critical issues. Our experienced team will meticulously remove and haul away the existing boots, ensuring a clean and secure surface for the new installation. We then provide and install new modified bitumen boots around the penetrations, ensuring they are properly sealed and leak-free. To further enhance the durability and longevity of the repair, we touch up the affected area with a high-quality aluminum coating, providing an additional layer of protection against the elements. Anchor Point Roofing provides expert roof repairs in Chicago and surrounding areas, ensuring your roof remains resilient and protects your property for years to come.
