Commercial Flat Roof Leak Repair in Chicago – Fix Leaks Around Roof Boots

When water starts seeping into your commercial property, it's crucial to address the issue promptly and professionally. That's where Anchor Point Roofing comes in.

We specialize in commercial roof repairs in Chicago, with a keen eye for detail when it comes to identifying and rectifying common leak points. One frequent culprit for flat roof leaks is improperly installed or failing boots around waste stacks. These critical components are designed to create a watertight seal where plumbing vents penetrate the roof membrane.

Often, we find that the wrong type of boot has been used – sometimes even boots intended for steep-slope roofs, which are fundamentally ill-suited for the unique demands of a flat roof. These "steep roof" boots lack the necessary flexibility and sealing capabilities to effectively prevent water intrusion on a flat surface, leading to premature failure and costly leaks.

At Anchor Point Roofing, our approach to fixing leaks around waste stack boots is thorough and effective. We don't just patch over the problem. Our skilled technicians will:

Remove the wrong or deteriorated boot: We start by carefully and completely removing the existing, faulty boot, ensuring no further damage to your commercial roofing system.

Install a new modified bitumen boot: We then install a high-quality, specifically designed modified bitumen boot around the waste stack. Modified bitumen is renowned for its excellent waterproofing properties, flexibility, and durability, making it ideal for flat roof applications.

Touch up with Lucas 6000: To ensure a superior and lasting seal, we "touch up" the newly installed boot with Lucas 6000. This advanced, high-performance elastomeric sealant provides an extra layer of protection, enhancing the boot's longevity and leak-prevention capabilities.
