Your 3rd Party Flat Roof Membrane Integrity Testing Specialists

For all your third-party Flat Roof Membrane integrity testing needs. We adhere to the stringent requirements of LABC, Premier Guarantee, and NHBC, ensuring your roof complies with British Standards 6229: 2018 and NHBC Chapter 7.1, regardless of whether it’s a new build or an existing structure.

NHBC Chapter 7.1.9 mandates visual and electronic testing of roofing membranes to confirm waterproof integrity before additional layers are applied. Our expert inspections catch and correct any faults, providing peace of mind and superior waterproofing.

Premier Guarantee section 7.11.15.2 highlights the necessity of independent third-party testing for green roofs, ensuring the integrity of the waterproof membrane before other components are installed.

We perform comprehensive roof surveys that review roof penetrations, terminations, equipment mounts, membrane conditions, perimeter flashing, and parapet wall coping. Our detailed inspections ensure all potential issues affecting watertightness are addressed.

While vacuum testing is effective for assessing off-site manufactured membrane seams, it is not recommended for verifying flat roof membrane integrity.

We understand each project is unique. Our extensive experience allows us to tailor our services to your specific needs, including providing Health and Safety Plans, Risk Assessments, and Method Statements, culminating in a detailed O&M Manual upon project completion.

Flat Roof Leak Detection Frequently Asked Questions

Why do waterproofing membranes fail?

Waterproofing membranes usually fail due to poor Waterproofing Application Technique. The application of waterproofing membranes is labor-intensive that requires skilled applicators. If the material is not applied correctly, it may not form a proper seal or may not bond adequately to the surface. Additionally, applying too little or too much material can result in an uneven surface or coverage that may compromise the integrity of the waterproofing. Most failed waterproofing installation is due to poor workmanship – which accounts for 90% of waterproofing membrane's failure. However,

Are Flat Roof leak detection companies worth it?

When it comes to determining if a flat roof leak detection company is worth it, there is an upfront cost to hiring them, but it's important to consider the potential savings in the long run. Unaddressed leaks can lead to extensive water damage, mold growth, and structural issues that can be far more expensive to repair.

Do green roofs need maintenance?

For most extensive green roofs, two to three maintenance visits per year are advised. You'll need to check the structural integrity of the roof, drainage systems, irrigation systems and, of course, the health and vitality of the vegetative layer.

What is a flat roof integrity test?

Flat roof integrity testing refers to the process of assessing the structural soundness and performance of flat roofs. This testing is crucial to ensure that the roof can withstand various weather conditions and effectively protect the building beneath it.

How does electronic roof leak detection work?

Electronic Leak Detection (ELD) is a portable quality control testing procedure designed to locate discontinuities (breaches, holes, seam voids) in waterproofing and roofing membranes. ELD determines the location of the breaches by applying an electrical current to the surface of the exposed membrane.
