Reads the water content in decking and insulation so we can map the wet area behind the shingles. It tells us how far the damage spreads, not just where the stain shows.

What Our Roof Waterproofing Service Covers
Every waterproofing job starts with a full inspection and ends with a water test. The inclusions below are standard on residential and commercial roofs in Surrey.
Work order
Roof Waterproofing- Full Roof Inspection: We walk the roof, check the attic from inside, and use a moisture meter and infrared camera to map wet areas. You get photos of every problem and a written scope. This takes 45 to 60 minutes on a typical Surrey home.
- Flashing and Sealant Repair: We reseal chimney flashing, pipe boots, valleys, and ridge caps with roofing sealant rated for cold weather. Cracked or lifted flashing gets replaced, not just caulked over. This is where most leaks start.
- Ice and Water Shield: We install ice and water shield along the eaves, valleys, and any low-slope section. This membrane self-seals around nails and stops water from backing up under the shingles during an ice dam. It is the single most important waterproofing layer in this climate.
- Flat Roof Membrane: On flat and low-slope roofs we roll Firestone or Carlisle SynTec membrane across the field and reinforce the seams. We check the slope and drainage at the same time so water does not pond after the job is done.
- Gutter and Drainage Check: We clear the gutters with a scoop and blower, check the downspouts, and confirm water runs away from the foundation. Clogged gutters are the most common cause of eave leaks we see in Surrey.
- Written Summary and Photos: You get a written record of what was sealed, what was replaced, and what to watch for next season. Photos of the before and after go with it. If you ever sell the home, that record is useful.

What Roof Waterproofing Surrey ND Actually Involves
A roof that leaks in Surrey will leak again next spring unless the water path is sealed properly. We find the source, fix it, and test it before we leave.
Roof Waterproofing Surrey ND is the work of sealing every path water can take into your home, from shingle laps to chimney flashing. We strip failed sealant, replace cracked pipe boots, and lay ice and water shield along eaves and valleys where meltwater backs up. On flat sections we use Firestone or Carlisle SynTec membrane. The goal is simple: water runs off the roof instead of soaking into the deck.
Surrey sits in Ward County where freeze-thaw cycles run from October through April. That is brutal on asphalt shingles and roof flashing. Water gets into a hairline crack, freezes, and pries it wider. By spring you have rot in the fascia and a wet insulation batten. If you have been searching for roof waterproofing near me Surrey ND, we handle the diagnosis and the repair in one visit.
- What it is
- Sealing every path water takes into the roof.
- When it helps
- After a stain, a storm, or before winter.
- What you get
- Photos, a written scope, and a water test.
How Our Waterproofing Process Works
Every job follows the same five steps, whether it is a small flashing repair or a full flat-roof membrane.
Tools and Methods We Use
Each method answers a different question. Together they leave very little to guess.
Shows temperature differences on the roof surface that reveal trapped moisture. We use it on flat roofs and around chimneys where the leak source is not obvious from above.
Applies roofing sealant to flashing joints, pipe boots, and ridge caps. We use cold-weather sealant rated for the temperatures Surrey sees from October through April.
Drives shingle nails to the correct depth and angle. A roofing nailer keeps the shingle field flat so water runs off instead of pooling at a high nail head.
Keeps our technicians safe on steep pitches and two-story homes. Every crew member is tied off on any roof above a single story.

How Roof Waterproofing Runs in Surrey
Surrey sits in Ward County where the roof sees 40-below wind chills in January and 90-degree afternoons in July. That swing is hard on sealant and shingles.
Cloverdale
Older shingle roofs with original chimney flashing. We see more lead flashing failures here than anywhere else in Surrey.
Newton
A mix of bungalows and two-story homes. Many have flat garage roofs that pond water and need membrane work.
Panorama Ridge
Newer builds with steep pitches and complex rooflines. Ventilation balance is the common issue we fix here.

PhotoChimney Leak Sealed in Cloverdale
Before: A homeowner in Cloverdale had a ceiling stain that grew every time it snowed. The chimney flashing was original to the 1970s house, cracked at the counter-flashing, and water was running down the brick into the attic. The insulation batt below was soaked and the decking showed early rot.
After: We replaced the lead flashing, resealed the counter-flashing into the brick, and installed new ice and water shield along the adjacent eave. The ceiling stain stopped spreading within one storm cycle, and the moisture meter read dry at the follow-up check three weeks later.
Flat Garage Roof Rebuilt in Newton
Before: A Newton homeowner had a flat garage roof that ponded water two inches deep after every rain. The membrane was blistered and split at the seams, and water was dripping onto the stored tools below. The roof had been patched twice with sealant that had already failed.
After: We removed the blistered membrane, corrected the slope with a tapered insulation board, and rolled a new Firestone membrane across the field. The ponding was gone, and a water test drained the roof within 45 minutes. The garage has stayed dry through two spring melts.
Ice Dam Prevention in Fleetwood
Before: A Fleetwood bungalow had ice dams every winter and water backing up under the shingles at the eave. The attic was warm from poor ventilation, the gutters were full of debris, and the fascia board on the north side had started to soften.
After: We installed ice and water shield along the full eave, cleared the gutters, replaced two soft fascia boards, and balanced the soffit and ridge vents. The next winter produced no ice dams, and the attic temperature stayed within five degrees of the outside air.
Roof Problems We Solve for Surrey Homeowners
Most roof leaks in Surrey trace back to one of a handful of causes.
Ice dams pushing water under the shingles
Water backs up at the eave, soaks the deck, and stains the ceiling.
Failed chimney and pipe boot flashing
A cracked flashing joint lets water straight into the attic.
Ponding water on flat roofs
Standing water finds every seam and blister.
Clogged gutters and rotted fascia
When gutters back up, water sits against the fascia board and wicks into the soffit.
Why Waterproofing Your Roof Pays Off
A sealed roof protects the structure, the insulation, and your interior finishes. These are the outcomes Surrey homeowners see after we finish a waterproofing job.
Stop Ice Dam Damage
Ice dams form when warm attic air melts snow that refreezes at the eave. Water backs up under the shingles and into the deck.
Extend Shingle Life
Sealed shingle laps and intact underlayment keep water from reaching the roofing felt.
Cut Heating Bills
Waterlogged insulation loses most of its R-value.
Prevent Mold and Rot
Rotted fascia and soffit boards are the first visible sign of chronic roof leaks.

(604) 555-0142Small flashing and sealant repairs sit at the low end. Full flat-roof membrane or complete eave-to-ridge ice and water shield pushes toward the top. Steep pitches, multiple stories, and rotted decking add labor. You get a written price before we start.
A properly installed waterproofing system lasts 15 to 25 years on a pitched roof and 10 to 15 years on a flat membrane. The freeze-thaw cycle in Ward County is the main variable. Ice and water shield holds up well, but sealant around flashing needs a check every three to four years. We inspect and touch up those joints as part of routine roof maintenance.
Yes, with the right materials. We use cold-applied sealants and membrane adhesives rated for temperatures down to 20 degrees Fahrenheit. Below that we tarp the area and schedule the permanent repair for the next warm window. Emergency roof waterproofing Surrey North Dakota calls in January usually mean a tarp first and a full repair when the thaw allows.
The usual culprits are clogged gutters, failed flashing, and poor attic ventilation. When gutters back up, water sits at the eave and works under the shingles. Flashing cracks from thermal movement. A hot attic in summer bakes the sealant and a cold one in winter makes it brittle. We check all three on every inspection and fix the cause, not just the symptom.
