Fitler Square Roofs We Work On

  • Townhouses with roof decks. Many homes have a deck on top for views of the river and the skyline. The roof under the deck wears where the posts and sleepers sit, and the pilot house door is a common leak point.
  • Older brick rows. Behind the front, many older homes have a flat roof over the main house or a rear section, often with layers from past repairs. See our flat roof repair and replacement page.
  • Newer townhouses. Homes built in the last few decades often have a flat roof that's now reaching the age where seams and parapet flashing start to fail.
  • Rear additions and bump-outs. Kitchen and family room additions have their own low roof, and the joint with the main wall leaks after heavy rain.

Roof Deck Leaks in Fitler Square

A leak under a roof deck is one of the most common calls we get from Fitler Square, and it often shows up as a stain on a finished ceiling several floors down. Water gets in where the deck's posts or sleepers have worn through the roof, or around the pilot house door. The lasting fix is to lift the affected part of the deck, repair the roof underneath, and reset the deck. Under decks, we install an EPDM roof, which holds up well and is easy to repair when a section of the deck comes up.

What Our Customers Say

Fitler Square Roofing FAQs

My roof deck is leaking. Do you have to take the whole deck off?

Usually not. Most leaks come from one area, like the posts or sleepers wearing through the roof or the flashing at the pilot house door. We lift only the part of the deck over the problem, repair the roof underneath, and reset it. We'll tell you up front how much needs to come up.

I'm adding a roof deck. Should the roof be replaced first?

If the roof is more than about 10 years old or has been patched, replacing it before the deck goes on is usually the better money, because getting to it later means lifting the deck. We'll check it and tell you honestly.

My neighbor's roof is in bad shape. Can it cause leaks in my house?

Yes. On a row, your roofs meet at the party wall, and failed flashing on either side can let water into both homes. We'll show you photos and tell you honestly if the problem is next door. Here's more on who fixes a leak between two rowhomes.
