Why is a flat roof more likely to leak?

The main reason flat roofs are more likely to leak is that they are less able to drain water.

The main reason flat roofs are more likely to leak is that they are less able to evacuate water. In other words, they don't allow things like water to slide off as easily as steeply sloped roofs.

Although a flat roof may slightly increase the risk of leaks, it is important to note the many advantages of a flat roof.

The fact is, even if your roof looks flat from most angles, there is no such thing as a completely flat roof. All roofs are pitched at least a few degrees to avoid puddles. This is why they are also called low-pitch roofs.



Poor construction is often the problem

Although the inability to drain water can lead to potential leaks, more often than not, human error is the real culprit.

In this day and age, money can be scarce, so many consumers are taking shortcuts in their budgets and hiring a roofer who can also take shortcuts in their work.

The fact is, even if your contractor does his or her best, even the slightest mistake on a flat roof can lead to future leaks.

No matter how good the work is, the fact is that almost every roof can leak at some point, especially if you live in an area with heavy rainfall. So leaks are not strictly a problem for flat roofs.

The reality is that a flat roof can often last up to 30 years without problems if properly installed and maintained. The key words here are "properly installed".

If you've heard that flat roofs are more prone to leakage than pitched roofs, you're not the first. The fact is that although these roofs may have a bad reputation, it is rarely the fault of the roof itself.
