Problem · roof, not only terrace

Roof leakage in Hyderabad

Roof leaks on sloped tile, metal sheet and RCC all show as a ceiling stain. The entry is usually a flashing, a sheet lap, or a penetration — not the middle of the room. We name the roof type before we name a product.

What you are seeing

Symptoms and likely causes

Typical signs

  • Leaks only in heavy rain, not in a light shower
  • Stains near a vent, AC stand or pipe through the roof
  • Rusted sheet laps or cracked tiles on a sloped roof
  • A previous bitumen patch that lasted one season

Causes we actually check

  • Failed flashing around penetrations
  • Loose or cracked roofing sheets or tiles at laps
  • Aged membrane on a flat RCC roof
  • Blocked valley or gutter dumping water against a wall

How Gracia diagnoses

Evidence before treatment

Roof-type first: RCC, tile or sheet. Then penetrations, laps and the ceiling below. Thermal when the stain is offset. Sheet-roof work is not a PU terrace spec copied across.

Kukatpally heat coats, Kompally walkable terraces and older independent-house sheet roofs in Quthbullapur are different jobs. We quote the roof you have.

Confirmed

Multiple evidence points support the cause.

Probable

Evidence indicates the cause; further verification may still be required.

Possible

One or more clues exist, but the evidence is not enough for a firm conclusion.

Excluded

Inspected, and no supporting evidence found in the inspected area.

Questions

About this problem

Terrace usually means a walkable flat RCC roof. Sloped tile and metal sheet roofs fail at laps and flashings. We inspect the roof type first so the treatment matches.
