Rubber Roofing Repair Service Company in Cincinnati, Ohio
Challenge
This rubber roof in downtown Cincinnati had become compromised, causing water leaks for the tenants below the roof. Part of the reason why the roof was in bad shape was because the gutters were also in poor shape, allowing water to pile up on the roof, causing pressure. We could also tell part of the wood decking had been compromised, so we were going to have to do some frame work as well.
Solution
We started by stripping the rubber down to the wood decking, where we installed fiberboard base sheets all over the wood decking. We then applied the EPDM rubber with termination bars at the eaves and rakes. After that, we applied all the finishing details like the brick counterflashing, the metal parapet wall caps, the downspouts, the aluminum seamless gutters, and pipe flashing. The result is a very strong, durable, pretty new roof.
