Torch on roof leak repair, Vancouver, BC

Torch on roof leak repair, Vancouver, BCLook at this photo and tell me you empathize with the owner. I do. Initial installation is failing. That’s a 4″ long blade shoved right into an open torchon roofing seam. The seam is only 3″ wide so there essentially is no seam to be had. I guess we can look at the glass as half full and say the owner is lucky it has lasted this long. I say it never should have happened with proper care on installation. Anyways we found this leak on a warehouse in Vancouver. Roofing is what I enjoy. Each day brings a new challenge. It’s nice when that needle-in-a-hay-stack gets found, as it was in this case. Finding roofing leaks can be like solving a murder mystery. Inspector Greg. I like the sound of that. Maybe I’ll even make it on Dateline or 20/20 one day! You knew me when….
