Ponding water is the number one enemy of flat commercial roofs in Dallas-Fort Worth. Water that stands for 48+ hours accelerates membrane deterioration and creates leak pathways. JRH Construction designs and installs drainage solutions that keep your roof dry.
Why Flat Roofs Pond Water
Most flat roofs are designed with slight slopes toward drains. However, structural settling, HVAC installation, and poor original design can create low spots where water collects.
Drainage Solutions
Interior Drains: Most common for large flat roofs. Scuppers: Wall-mounted drainage. Tapered Insulation: Creates positive slope. Cricket Installation: Diverts water around penetrations.
