Stop the leak.

Commercial Roof Repair That Reaches the Source

We trace commercial roof leaks to the entry point, repair the cause, and document everything in writing.

The Leak Is a System Problem

You've Got More Going On Than a Water Stain

A commercial roof is a layered assembly. The membrane (the waterproof sheet on top) sits over insulation, which sits on the deck (the structural surface that carries both).

Water that gets past the membrane rarely drops straight down. It travels along those layers, sometimes for dozens of feet, before it finds a low point and shows inside as a stain. A patch placed at the stain covers the symptom while the entry that admitted the water keeps admitting it.

Replacing the ceiling tile doesn’t fix the problem, it just prolongs it. A repair that lasts starts with finding the entry.

How the Trace Works

Understanding Your Commercial Roof as a Closed System

To find and fix the leak, you have to know how the roof was built.

Inspect Every Entry Point

Seams, penetrations, flashings, and drains are where flat assemblies fail, so the trace starts there.

Follow the Water's Trail

Moisture leaves evidence as it moves. We follow saturated insulation, stained decking, rust lines, and ponding marks back to the start.

Confirm the Cause

We verify the opening we found produces the leak you are seeing before anything is cut or covered.

Put the Repair in Writing

You get a written scope naming the entry point, the damage along the path, and the work to close it.

A Repair That Holds

Roof Repair Matched to Your System

Black Bison Roofing works the flat and low-slope systems most commercial buildings use: TPO (a single-ply membrane with heat-welded seams), modified bitumen (asphalt-based rolled sheeting), spray polyurethane foam, and metal. Each one fails in its own way and each takes its own repair, made with materials produced for that system and detailed so the assembly sheds water the way it was designed to.

That is why the trace comes first. A repair aimed at the confirmed cause is the difference between closing a leak and postponing it.

Documentation You Can Hand Over

Documentation You Can Rely On

Every job we work on delivers a report on our findings and the repairs we’ve made, because a commercial repair usually has to be justified to someone who was never on the roof.

  1. Step 1: Photos of the entry point and the water's path.

    Where the water got in and everything it touched on the way to the stain.

  2. Step 2: Findings written in plain language.

    A summary a non-roofer can read and pass up the chain without translation.

  3. Step 3: The repair scope in writing before work begins.

    What we propose to do at each location and the damage it addresses.

  4. Step 4: Storm damage carried as a claim.

    When a storm caused the entry, we advocate on the commercial property claim through the same stages we run on residential claims, and our involvement ends only when the payments do; what the carrier approves stays the carrier's call.

Minimal Disruption

Minimal Disruption For Your Operations

We plan repair work around the way the building operates. Work hours and staging are set with you before anyone is on the roof, and the areas beneath the work stay protected while it is underway.

You also get one accountable point of contact from assessment through completion, so questions from tenants or ownership get answered by the people doing the work.
