New Garage roof

Best Answer

"If you have puddles on your roof that means your boards are dipped in the middle and not allowing it to flow off the roof into the gutters there are two ways around this first being change at the new roof with proper degreed full for the rain to run into the gutters and the second option is you could build up up the area with new torch-on felt at the back of the roof and then that would push the water towards the front into the gutter but that is only if the boards are ok ok and not soft in these situations it's more beneficial to the homeowner to have a new roof with a good recommended company with at least years guarantee"

"If your flat roof is puddling it means it doesn’t have the correct fall towards guttering so would recommend a new roof"

"U can repair it by touching another layer of felt over it and double up the felt where the water is laying and it will run off"

"In my experience, if the structure of the roof (joists or boards) have caused the dip, these will need replacing to avoid further damage and any repairs on top of this are just masking the issue."

"Hello Ellis from pro-jet Pressure washing a roof repair, I would say you would need a repair job it’s nothing to serious just existing board has bowed, many thanks"

"It depends on how big the puddles are and is the roof soft but you need someone to look at it"

"You will struggle to repair it, it’s the structure underneath that’s sagging"

"Ideally yes you need new boarding, puddles just show the boards have bowed in"

"If your roof Is suffering from puddles this would indicate the boards beneath the roof coating to have been water damaged and there strength being compromised over long term water ingress, the correct way to deal with this is to strip back to the existing roofing support joists, re board with new treated timber sheeting giving you a solid, smooth foundation to work with, then to complete with a roof coverage of your choice."

"Most probably yes,as water shouldn't stay on top ,as can cause leak or even worse can damage the joists,ply...."
