Most Dublin flat roofs sit over an extension, garage, or rear return, usually in felt. They fail at one joint or outlet, then water travels before showing inside.
Brown ring on the ceiling or a drip that only appears after heavy rain. The mark is often nowhere near the breach, because water runs along the deck first.
Bubbles under the surface, cracks, or laps (the overlapping joints between sheets) lifting at the edge. The most common entry points on an older felt roof.
Puddles still there days after rain mean the fall or the outlet is not doing its job. Standing water finds every weak joint and wears the covering out early.
We work on every flat roof covering used in Ireland, from torch-on felt to PVC single-ply, fibreglass, and asphalt. A Trocal, Bauder, or Paralon roof gets repaired in its own system, never patched with whatever is on the van
Where a repair will not hold, we say so and price the alternative beside it. Recovering options sit on our flat roof systems page, and reinsulating at the same time means a warm roof build-up.
Most roof problems start small and quiet, then get expensive. If you have spotted any of these, it is worth getting them looked at before the next downpour.
We come out, get on the roof, and find exactly what is wrong.
You get a clear, itemised price. No call-out charge, no pressure.
Our own crew carries out the work, tidily and on the agreed date.
We show you what we did and stand over the work.
Flat roofing is the work this firm was founded on. John McEvoy started HP Roofing in 1969, and flat roofs have been core ever since.
We tell you straight when a patch wastes money and when a patch is all the roof needs.
No subcontractors on any job. The crew that surveys your roof is the same crew that comes back and repairs it.
Felt, single-ply, fibreglass and asphalt, plus the branded systems we install across Dublin.
Employer and public liability cover, CSCS-carded crew, in-house safety officer.
A few recent repairs around Dublin. Real jobs, real homes.
Nobody can price a flat roof leak honestly over the phone. Two roofs with the same ceiling stain can be very different jobs underneath. What we can do is tell you what moves the number, so your quote makes sense when you read it.
The survey is free and the price is written and fixed for the work described. For a rough sense of scale first, use the Roof Cost Calculator.
How far the damage runs. One split is a different job to a covering gone brittle all over.
What is underneath. Sound decking keeps it simple. Wet or soft timber has to come out.
Access. Garage roof off a ladder costs less than a two-storey return needing scaffolding.
The system. Single-ply, fibreglass and branded membranes need matching materials.
Drainage work. Correcting falls, renewing an outlet or fixing a box gutter adds to a straight membrane repair.

No call-out charge, no obligation. We’ll tell you honestly whether it needs repairing or replacing.
It depends on how much of the covering has failed. A single split, a lifted lap or a blocked outlet is a repair. Widespread cracking across the whole surface, water sitting under the membrane in several places, or soft decking usually means the covering has reached the end of its life and a repair will only buy a season. We survey it, tell you which one you are looking at, and show you what we found.
Water gets in at one point and then runs along the decking or the joists until it finds a gap to drop through. That is why the stain on your ceiling is often well away from the actual breach. Tracing the real entry point is the part of the job that decides whether the repair holds.
A flat roof is not truly flat. It is laid with a slight fall so rain runs to the outlet. If water is still sitting there a day or two after rain, the fall is not working, the outlet is blocked, or the deck has dipped. Standing water does not cause a leak on its own, but it finds every weak lap and it shortens the life of the covering, so it is worth sorting.
We can make a roof safe and stop water getting into the house in most conditions. A permanent repair needs the surface dry and the temperature reasonable, because felt, single-ply and resin all need a clean dry surface to bond to. In Irish weather that often means a temporary hold first and the proper repair a few days later. We tell you which one we are doing. If water is coming in right now, ring us and see emergency roof repairs.
