Loose Membrane Causing Chicago Flat Roof Leaks

A loose membrane at the wall flashing is a significant concern for your flat roof. This vulnerable area allows water to infiltrate, 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 the existing loose wall flashing, ensuring a clean and secure surface for the new installation. To prepare the walls for optimal adhesion, we apply a coat of high-quality asphalt primer. Next, we strategically install cant strip to create a smooth and even transition between the roof membrane and the wall. Following this, we install a durable new modified bitumen wall flashing, providing a robust barrier against water penetration. Finally, we install new counterflashing and seal it with a high-grade commercial sealant to create a watertight and long-lasting seal. 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.
