Flat roof leaks hide: water travels between membrane and decking before it surfaces inside, often far from the entry point. Flat roof leak repair in Irving starts with moisture tracing, not guesswork.

Pick the door that matches your situation. It routes you to the right person on the team, and every path starts with a free, documented look at the roof.
Texas law requires homeowners to pay their insurance deductible.
Cedar Crest does not waive or absorb deductibles. If anyone offers to, walk away.

Flat roof leaks in Irving get traced before they get fixed. We find where the water is actually entering, then match the repair to the membrane: TPO, EPDM, PVC, and mod-bit each repair differently, and Irving buildings run all of them. Every leak investigation is documented with photos, estimates are free and written, deductibles are never waived because Texas law forbids it, and we are not public adjusters.
Flat roof leaks and Irving’s hail history
Hail can open a flat roof in ways that stay hidden until the next rain. Irving has recorded 33 days of 1-inch-plus hail within 8 miles since 2006 and 9 days of golf-ball-size or larger hail, with 1-inch hail in 15 of the last 20 years. Each membrane type responds to that impact differently, which is why the repair is matched to the material rather than handled with a generic patch.
The city’s building stock also spans decades: 36 percent of Irving housing was built before 1980, 50 percent between 1980 and 2009, and 14 percent in 2010 or later. Flat roofs here range from recent installs to older systems with layered repairs, and a leak on an older system may come from an earlier patch rather than the membrane itself. We handle flat roof leaks throughout Dallas County and in nearby Coppell and Grapevine.

We don't waive deductibles; nobody legally can. Texas law requires
homeowners to pay their insurance deductible (Tex. Ins. Code ch. 707). If a roofer offers
to "cover" or "absorb" yours, walk away. It puts your claim at risk and may be a felony
for the contractor.
We document damage, provide repair and replacement estimates, and meet your
adjuster on-site to answer construction questions. We are not a public adjuster
and do not interpret your insurance policy or negotiate claim value on your behalf.
Common questions about flat roof leak repair in Irving
Why does my flat roof leak keep coming back?
Usually because the visible symptom got patched while the actual entry point kept feeding water into the assembly. Moisture tracing finds the source; that is the repair that lasts.
Can ponding water cause leaks?
Standing water accelerates membrane wear and finds every weakness. Persistent ponding is a drainage problem worth solving, not just a symptom to patch around.
Do you repair all flat roof types in Irving?
TPO, EPDM, PVC, modified bitumen, and built-up systems, each with the repair method the system calls for.
Do mature trees around our Irving home affect the roof?
Constantly. Canopy debris loads gutters and valleys, branches abrade shingles in every wind event, and shade-side slopes hold moisture longer. Trimming to clearance and keeping drainage clear are the two cheapest roof-life extensions in established neighborhoods.
How often does hail hit Irving?
NOAA's Storm Events Database lists 33 days since 2006 with hail one inch or larger reported within 8 miles of Irving, including 9 days with golf ball size stones or bigger. Hail that size was reported in 15 of the last 20 years. The most recent report was 1.5-inch hail on March 25, 2025.
How old are most homes in Irving?
The median home in Irving was built in 1986, according to the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey. 36% of the city's housing units predate 1980 and 14% were built in 2010 or later. Many homes here are reaching the age when original roofs come due.
