Flat Roof Repair
A flat roof is a practical and modern choice for homes and commercial buildings, but it requires specialized care to withstand weather, wear, and time. At Top Rated Roofing, we specialize in repairing all types of flat roofing systems, including felt, rubber (EPDM), fiberglass (GRP), and advanced Sarnafil/Sika membranes. Whether you’re dealing with leaks, cracks, or aging materials, our skilled team delivers precision repairs to restore your roof’s integrity and extend its lifespan.

Cracked Seams: Separation in membrane joints from thermal expansion.
Blistering/Bubbling: Moisture trapped beneath roofing layers.
UV Damage: Fading or brittleness from sun exposure.
Punctures: Damage from debris, foot traffic, or wildlife.
