Flat Roof Repair
As an Aurora commercial roof repair contractor, we fix the seams, flashings, and gutters that winter ice opens on shops, offices, and storefronts.

Aurora commercial roof repair work picks up each spring, once snow clears and the damage from ice and meltwater is easy to see. Laps that froze open, sealant pulled away from curbs, and membrane nicked by shovels all show up on the first walk.
Booking that walk early leaves time to repair before summer storms test the roof.
These conditions show up on Aurora buildings after a hard winter.
Leftover ice blocks the outlet, and meltwater backs up under the edge metal on the next warm day.
Snow removal with metal shovels slices membrane near drains and doors, and small cuts grow once water freezes in them.
Water trapped in a seam expands each night and pries the lap a little wider until it leaks.
Stains that appear after the first warm spell often trace to an ice dam at an eave or wall weeks earlier.
Ice expands against curb flashing and tears the sealant bead, leaving a gap at the unit base.
Frozen downspouts split at the seams and dump meltwater against the wall, where it soaks the base of the parapet flashing.
Winter damage is usually local. These rows separate a spring repair from a roof that needs replacing.
| Factor | Spring Repair | Plan Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Freeze damage | A few opened laps or cracked flashings | Seams failing across the whole roof |
| What sets the cost | The number of spots and their access | Roof area, tear-off, and insulation |
| Gutters and edges | Bent sections and loose hangers | Edge metal rusted along every side |
| Insulation | Dry outside the stained area | Wet in several areas after the thaw |

Get A Free EstimateA spring visit in Aurora follows four steps.
Seams, curbs, gutters, and edges are checked for ice and shovel damage, with each finding photographed and pinned on a sketch.
Stains that showed during the melt are traced to the eave, wall, or lap where ice backed water in.
You get the list in order: open laps and torn flashing first, then items to watch through the summer.
Crews reseal laps and curbs, patch membrane cuts, and clear gutters and scuppers so meltwater and rain can drain.

Quick answers for Aurora owners and managers.
Seams, flashings, and gutters top the list. Ice and meltwater open laps and pull sealant off curbs, and shovels can cut the membrane near drains and doors. A walk-through once the snow clears catches these before summer storms arrive. Aurora is inside our Grand Island service area for commercial roof repair.
The number of repair spots, the roof system, and access set most of it. A few resealed laps cost far less than cutting out wet insulation under a stain. Travel from Grand Island is part of every Aurora visit, so grouping spring repairs into one trip spreads that cost across more work.
Most Aurora calls are for flat membrane roofs on offices and storefronts and metal roofs on shops and ag buildings. Common work includes reflashing curbs, sealing laps, replacing fasteners, repairing drains, and patching membrane. Larger plants add exhaust fan and walkway repairs.
Spring, once the roof is clear of snow and dry enough to walk, is when winter damage is easiest to find. Membrane repairs bond best in mild, dry weather. Active leaks get a temporary seal at any time of year, with the permanent repair made when conditions allow.
A slow drip over an empty area can wait a short time with a bucket and a temporary seal, but water left in the insulation keeps spreading. Leaks over electrical gear, stock, or occupied rooms need a temporary repair right away, and we set the permanent fix for the first dry stretch.
Metal shovel blades catch on seams and slice the membrane, most often near doors, drains, and rooftop units where snow gets cleared first. The cuts are small and stay hidden under snow until the thaw. Plastic shovels and leaving a few inches of snow on the roof reduce the damage, and a spring walk finds the cuts that happened anyway.
