Ponding Water – Sky Roofing Construction & Remodeling – Call (210) 942-9797

Ponding water refers to the accumulation of standing water on a roof’s surface, posing significant risks to the longevity and integrity of roof types, especially flat and low-slope designs. This issue typically results from inadequate drainage systems, improper roof pitch, or debris blocking water flow. When heavy rainfall or melting snow occurs, water collects, straining roofing materials. Over time, ponding water can cause material degradation, increasing the risk of leaks, mold growth, and structural damage. Homeowners must promptly address ponding to mitigate these risks. Regular maintenance, including inspections and drainage assessments, protects the roof’s health and prevents long-term damage.
