Waterproofing doesn't last forever; summer heat, rain and building movement all affect it. Spotting failure early keeps the repair simpler and protects ceilings and finishes from bigger damage.
Signs on the roof
Look for these after rain or on a safe roof visit:
- Cracks, blisters or flaking in the layer
- Waterproofing lifting at walls and edges
- Water pooling in the same spots after rain
- Damage around drains and tank bases
Signs inside the home
Top-floor ceiling stains that appear or grow after rain, damp under bathrooms or the overhead tank, or an insulated tank losing level without clear use.
Local repair or full redo?
A local repair may do if damage is limited and the rest of the layer is sound. If lifting and cracking are widespread, repeated patching can cost more than redoing it. This is decided after assessment.
