Membrane Punctures And Tears

Wind-blown debris can puncture or tear EPDM, TPO, and modified bitumen membranes — damage that’s often visible on a close inspection but easy to miss from a distance.

Seam Separation

High wind can stress and separate seams between membrane sheets, creating a leak point even when the membrane itself looks intact.

Ponding Water After A Storm

Water that doesn’t drain within 48 hours after a storm can signal a drainage problem that predates or was worsened by the storm.

Why A Prompt Inspection Matters

Flat roof storm damage isn’t always obvious from the ground — a timely, close inspection after any major storm catches issues before they become interior leaks.
