What to do before anybody climbs a ladder
- Catch the water and photograph itA bucket under the drip, belongings moved, and a photograph of the stain before anything is touched. Keep clear of wet ceilings near a light fixture and switch that circuit off if it is safe to.
- Look at the low roof from a windowIf a back or porch window looks onto a flat roof, check for water still standing, a lifted edge or leaves heaped at the drain. Do not climb out onto it.
- Note when the water showsEvery rain, only in heavy rain, or only when snow melts. Water that shows during a thaw points at the eaves; water in every rain points at a low spot or an outlet.
- Ask where the water is meant to goBefore anyone prices a patch, ask them to show you how the water leaves that roof and why it stopped. A found low spot or blocked outlet is a smaller bill.

Call (973) 576-8084Note 01How is a flat roof repaired?
By finding where the water sits and repairing that, in the membrane already on the roof. A flat roof rarely fails in the middle of a dry stretch: it fails at a blocked outlet, in a low spot, or at a seam that spends days underwater. The outlet is cleared, the low spot built up so water runs again, and the seam repaired in kind.
Note 02How to repair a flat roof without replacing it?
Fix the drainage and the detail that failed. Most flat roofs that look finished are a sound membrane with one bad outlet and a pond beside it. Clearing or resetting the outlet, building up the low spot and repairing the seams that sat underwater can give the roof years more. If the membrane is cracked across the field, you are told so.
Note 03How much does it cost to repair a roof in New Jersey?
Most roof repairs are estimated at $300 to $3,000, with flat-roof repairs estimated at $750 to $3,500 from a range borrowed from another market. A cleared outlet or a few shingles sits low; a low spot built up or a valley rebuilt sits higher.
Note 04What is the cheapest way to repair a roof?
Fix the cause once. On a Passaic roof that is often a blocked drain, a choked valley or a porch roof draining back to the house, and putting the water back on its way costs far less than patching the same spot every season.
