How to fix a dipping flat roof that collects standing water

“What should I do? Illinois home, roof is from 2012ish.”source ↗

“with some water pooling on the edge that is not draining properly.”source ↗

“after just a small 1hr Ontario rain, this much water is just sitting in the edge and not going anywhere.”source ↗

“The black roofing material (the pebble looking material) started to become loose at the deep end of this, like I can pick it up.”source ↗

“Unfortunately I noticed last year during the winter time (when it was raining), water was pooling up on the roof near these gutter guards in the winter time.”source ↗

“It seems like leaves and dirt and debris were building up around and underneath these guards, preventing the water from going down the downspouts and allowing water to build up”source ↗

“Had some contractors repair the roof after it was damaged by a tree, this is how it looks like after rain.”source ↗

“Did they level it wrong or is this much water acceptable?”source ↗

“Water pools near the end of the roof and doesn’t flow nicely towards the drain.”source ↗

“When I bought this house, there was lots of water damage near the drain. It was rotted out so dad that you could see outside from the inside.”source ↗

“The drain appears to be slightly above the water but also the roof doesn’t really angle towards the drain.”source ↗

“EPDM, clearly has slight dipping towards the end there that’s also collecting water and leaves. If a full tear off and install of new EPDM is required, what would you charge (MN)?”source ↗

“What would be the cheaper/easier options? Would sloping it away from the walls be the right solution, or would that still require a full tear off replacement?”source ↗

“It’s roughly 3ft by 8ft and I feel like it could be involved to tear out and could be costly. Is it possible to put something over it that angles down away from the walls?”source ↗

“we’re getting some water pooling on the roof. There’s a drain gutter towards the top right of the photo, but obviously where it pulls is a little lower than the height of the drain.”source ↗

“Just had a new roof installed six weeks ago and during a lull in this weekend’s nor’easter I’m noticing a little bit of pooling water at the very edges of some shingles.”source ↗

“Not really sure what specific question to ask, I guess just a general question about pooling on this type of roof, what is normal and when to be concerned?”source ↗

“Have not noticed any leaking inside.”source ↗

“Pooling water definitely doesn't help, it was supposed to be re sloped.”source ↗

“Supposed to meet next week to discuss this and other issues”source ↗

“Not ideal but not a whole lot that can be done. A drain would be a trip hazard, you cant raise it without a full redo.”source ↗

“What you could do it notch out an area to make a drain but thats a lot of money and increased risk for not much of any gain.”source ↗

“There's a solid metal ring at the base of the leaf catchers. Seems that will leave water on the roof around the drain after a rain - it can't drain completely.”source ↗

“it hasn't rained much here in a week or 2 but the areas around the 2 drains are still muddy.”source ↗

“I'd just think the more there's standing water / muck on the roof, the more likely it can work its way through the membrane patch areas?”source ↗

“I did notice 1 u tube pipe coming off 1 of them and just open at the end / not piped to the drain. I totally forgot about condensate. So I guess it could the water source.”source ↗

“Hi, I live in a complex and we recently had a carport roof redone. Pooling water issue aside, I have noticed something that seems odd and was hoping for some feedback from more knowledgeable people.”source ↗

“When it rains the water pools, and about an hour later a darker and I assume wet area appears to spread out across the roof and then "dries" and receeds, only to spread out again.”source ↗

“We have a large pond of water that collects in our front lawn every time we get a large rainstorm (1” rain).”source ↗

“It’s about 120 cubit feet of water in most routine storms and results in a puddle often 20 foot in diameter and as sometimes as deep as 6 inches deep.”source ↗

“I’m hoping that I can design some form of dry well to allow water to collect under the soil as it drains in the days following the storm, rather than remain surface water for a week at a time.”source ↗

“As shown in the the attached infrared image, I have some standing water in the lighter areas of my concrete driveway.”source ↗

“In the winter it pools leaving a dangerous ice patch.”source ↗

“What is the best way to speed up the drainage without modification to the driveway itself, and minimal modification to the lawn?”source ↗

“The shingles flatten out as it goes over the gutter covers. Water pools and debris accumulate there.”source ↗

“My concern is that when I lifted the sod, I found water underneath it in the same area where water used to collect, as shown in the third picture.”source ↗

“Should I remove the sod and regrade the area, or leave the sod in place and allow it to establish and settle naturally?”source ↗
