Thermal leak mapping
Infrared scanning finds moisture behind the roof surface, so we treat the actual entry point.
Problem & causes
Roof leaks come from more places than you would think
Signs you have this problem
- Water stains spreading across the ceiling, often far from the actual leak point
- Leaks that appear only during heavy rain, not light showers
- Rusting or damage near roof joints, flashing or pipe entries
- A previous repair that did not actually stop the leak
Common root causes
- Aged or damaged waterproofing membrane
- Faulty flashing around chimneys, vents or pipe penetrations
- Loose or cracked roofing sheets or tiles letting water in at joints
- Structural cracks that widen with temperature changes
How Gracia diagnoses
What we do differently
Joint & flashing repair
Pipe entries, joints and flashing are sealed properly, not just caulked over.
Roof-type specific treatment
RCC, sloped tile and metal sheet roofs each get the right material and method.
Waterproof membrane
A durable, weather-resistant layer suited to your roof’s exposure and usage.
Our process
Symptom to warranty
01
Symptom
Bathroom leak, ceiling stain, wall damp or terrace seepage — what you see is the starting clue, not the diagnosis.
02
Inspection
On-site visual, thermal and optical checks. We do not quote a coating from a WhatsApp photo alone.
03
Evidence
Photos with marked points, thermal or moisture notes, and the limits of what the scan can prove.
04
Diagnosis
Cause labelled Confirmed, Probable, Possible or Excluded — then the minimum opening if we still need to verify.
05
Treatment
Quoted system, preparation, exclusions and testing. Work starts only after you approve the scope.
06
Warranty
The period on the quotation and certificate — not a generic banner number.
Real case
Kukatpally terrace heat and hairline cracks
Problem. Top-floor rooms unlivable in May; hairline terrace cracks after summer.
Inspection. Crack map and slope check. Thermal used to confirm no hidden wet pockets before coating.
Confirmed. Thermal movement cracks plus poor outlet; not an active pipe leak.
Treatment. Crack treatment, outlet clear, heat-reflective coat.
Testing. Visual after first rain; outlet flow check.
Warranty. Quoted 5-year roof coat. Garden planters added later would void the coat at those points.
Full case study →Testing / handover
Pond test on bays that can hold water, outlet flow check, and a leak watch on the floor below after the first rain.
Warranty on this treatment
Typically 5 years; up to 7 years on specified PU or polyurea systems
Drainage, ponding, structural movement and later civil modifications must be addressed in the quoted scope.

Questions
Roof — frequently asked
Terrace usually refers to a flat, walkable RCC roof, while sloped or metal roofs need different treatment methods. We assess your specific roof type first.
