FAQ: What if my commercial roof is leaking right now?
Step 1: Contain What You Can Safely
Place buckets, bins, or tarps under the leak
Move electronics, inventory, or furniture if possible
Don’t get on the roof—especially during rain
Document any visible damage (for insurance)
Your safety comes first. Once the area is contained, give us a call.
Step 2: Call L&L Roofing for Emergency Response
We prioritize active leaks in commercial buildings, especially if operations or tenants are at risk.
When you call, we’ll ask:
What type of building and roof system you have
Where and when the leak started
If the building is occupied or has high-value equipment inside
Then we’ll send a crew ASAP with the tools and materials to secure the site.
Step 3: Temporary Protection + Full Inspection
When we arrive:
✅ We’ll tarp or patch the area to stop the leak
✅ Check for ponding water, failed seams, open flashings
✅ Document damage for you and your insurance
✅ Recommend the next steps: repair, restoration, or replacement
In most cases, we can stop the water the same day—then schedule permanent repairs after the weather clears.
Common Causes of Emergency Commercial Roof Leaks
Storm damage (wind, hail, heavy rain)
Clogged or damaged drains and scuppers
Aging seams or worn-out membrane
Punctures from rooftop equipment or foot traffic
Flashing failure at curbs, walls, or HVAC units
Whatever the cause, we’ve seen it—and we know how to fix it.
