Electronic Leak Detection for Commercial Roofs
Find Hidden Roof Leaks Before They Cause Damage
Electronic Leak Detection (ELD) pinpoints the exact source of leaks in commercial roofing systems. No guesswork. No unnecessary tear-offs. Just clear answers on where your roof is failing and what to do next.
Stop Guessing. Start Knowing.
Most commercial roof issues don’t start with visible damage. They start small, stay hidden, and spread.
By the time a leak shows up inside your building:
-
Moisture has already traveled
-
Insulation may be compromised
-
Repair costs have multipliedsts
Traditional methods like infrared testing rely on surface conditions and assumptions. That often leads to missed issues or unnecessary repairs. ELD removes the guesswork.
ELD vs. Other Testing Methods
Not all testing methods give you the same level of clarity.
Electronic Leak Detection (ELD)
-
Pinpoints exact leak locations
-
Works in real-world conditions
-
Minimizes unnecessary repairs
Infrared (IR)
-
Identifies moisture patterns
-
Relies on temperature differences
-
Can miss early or hidden issues
Electrical Impedance (EI)
-
Detects moisture beneath the surface
-
Maps exact saturation levels
-
Does not pinpoint exact leak locations
Water Testing
-
Confirms leaks in specific areas
-
Time-intensive and localized
-
Not ideal for large or complex roofs
NEW - You Won't Know What a Leak Costs Until It's Too Late to Control It
Most facility teams are doing the right things — and still getting surprised by five-figure repair bills. This guide shows why timing is everything and what proactive leak detection actually protects.
What's inside:
-
Real cost benchmarks across commercial facility types
-
Five cost categories: repairs, disruption, interruption, insurance impact and deferred maintenance
-
Why early detection keeps costs in the hundreds, not the hundreds of thousands
-
Documentation language for warranty, insurance and capital planning

Still Not Sure What's Under That Membrane?
Most facility teams put off roof assessments because they don't know what they're going to find or what it'll cost to fix it. A quick conversation won't cost you anything. Waiting until water shows up inside will.
