Is your flat roof leaking, bubbling, or holding water? At ACR Dublin, we provide expert flat roof repairs and full replacements throughout North and South Dublin. With over 30 years of experience, we specialize in high-performance waterproofing systems designed to withstand the Irish weather.
But before you call, do you know which of the three modern roofing systems is actually right for your specific home?
Specialist Flat Roofing Solutions in Dublin
We don’t believe in “one size fits all.” Different flat roofs require different materials based on the structure and your budget. We specialize in the three most durable systems available today:
Torch-on Felt (Modified Bitumen): The classic, cost-effective choice for residential extensions, sheds, and garages. Our high-grade felt is applied in three layers for maximum durability.
GRP Fiberglass: A seamless, cold-applied resin that is 100% waterproof. Because it is incredibly tough, it is the ideal solution for balconies and roof terraces with foot traffic.
EPDM Rubber Membrane: A modern, flexible single-ply membrane that doesn’t crack or rot. It handles extreme temperature shifts perfectly, making it a “fit and forget” solution for many homeowners.
Choosing the right material is half the battle, but what happens when the Dublin weather takes a turn for the worse before you can book a repair?
Need an Emergency Flat Roof Fix?
Flat roof leaks can cause rapid damage to your ceilings, insulation, and home electrics. We offer a 1-hour emergency response across the Dublin area to provide temporary seals or heavy-duty tarpaulin cover until the weather allows for a permanent repair. Call us now for immediate assistance.
Emergency patches save your ceilings today, but do you know the four hidden signs that your roof is failing from the inside out?
Common Flat Roof Issues We Solve
If you catch a problem early, a repair is often much cheaper than a full replacement. We provide expert diagnosis and fixing for:
Ponding Water: Standing water is the #1 killer of flat roofs. We re-pitch roofs or install “tapered insulation” to ensure water flows correctly into your gutters.
Blistering & Bubbling: This occurs when moisture is trapped between layers. We cut out damaged sections and reseal them to prevent structural rot.
Cracked Membranes: Older felt roofs often crack at the edges. We reinforce these joints with modern, UV-resistant materials.
Commercial & Residential: From small kitchen extensions to large industrial units, we have the crew and the equipment to handle any scale.
Solving these issues takes skill, but there is one specific reason why most DIY flat roof repairs fail within the first six months…

Flat Roof Repair FAQ (Dublin)
How long does a flat roof repair take?
Most minor leak repairs are completed within 2–4 hours. A full resurfacing or replacement typically takes 1–2 days, depending on the size of the roof and weather conditions.
Can a flat roof leak be patched, or do I need a full replacement?
If the underlying timber (the decking) is still dry and solid, we can often perform a high-quality patch or an “overlay” system. However, if the roof is sagging or the boards are damp, a replacement is usually the safer, more cost-effective long-term option.
Do you provide free quotes?
