East Stroudsburg Commercial Roofing Around Parapet Walls
East Stroudsburg commercial roofing on older blocks is only as dry as the wall caps above it.
Water that slips through an open coping joint runs down inside the parapet and comes out behind brand-new base flashing. We inspect every cap joint and its attachment before the scope is written.
Loose metal coping is replaced with new caps and cleats; stone or terra-cotta caps get their joints and anchors checked with your mason. The membrane then runs up the wall under counter-flashing set to the new roof height.

Commercial Roofing Problems on East Stroudsburg Parapet Buildings
Wall leaks and roof leaks look alike from inside, so we trace each one.
Bubbled Plaster Under the Roofline
Paint lifts high on the walls under the parapet line.
Open Coping Joints
Sealant at the cap seams cracks and lets water into the wall.
Leaks Along One Wall Only
Drips follow a single exterior wall after wind-driven rain.
Loose Counter-Flashing
Reglet flashing pulls out of the mortar and opens a gap.
Spring Leaks After Snow
Melt shows up inside where snow drifts against the parapet.
Base Flashing Too Short
Drifted snow sits above flashing that stops low on the wall.
Caulk Lines Everywhere
Past repairs have smeared sealant along every wall joint.
Old Roof Tied Into Wet Walls
A membrane glued to damp masonry loses grip at the edge.
Water at the Downspout Heads
Conductor heads on the outside wall overflow during heavy rain.
Undersized Through-Wall Scuppers
Small or clogged scuppers in the parapet hold water against the wall.
Cold Drafts Along Outside Walls
Rooms by the outside walls feel drafty under the roofline.
Wet Board Along the Parapets
Water entering at the walls soaks insulation in a strip around the edge.

(484) 978-7949Call UsHow Commercial Roofing Is Planned in East Stroudsburg
Five decisions for a parapet building, set in order.
Inspect Your Roof
We walk the field and every wall, opening cap joints and checking how the coping and scuppers are attached. Interior stains are matched to the wall above them as we go.
Roof or Wall Leak?
Each stain inside is matched to a roof seam, a cap joint, or a reglet with water tests before the scope is final. Test results are written into the scope beside each stain.
Coping Plan
Metal caps are replaced on cleats; masonry caps are reset with a mason where joints or anchors have failed. Caps are pitched to throw water toward the roof side.
Membrane and Flashing
The new sheet runs up each wall under counter-flashing set to the finished roof height and above the drift line. Inside corners get pre-formed pieces so the laps stay out of the corner.
Water-Test the Walls
Suspect joints are tested with a hose before closeout, and the photos go in your building file. The coping joints are photographed before and after.

Commercial Roofing Questions From East Stroudsburg Owners
What owners of parapet buildings here ask most.
Can a New Roof Leave Old Coping in Place?
Defective coping belongs in the reroof plan, because water through it lands above the new flashing. We check the joints and attachment along the whole perimeter. A new membrane leaves that wall route open if the cap stays as it is.
What Does Commercial Roofing for East Stroudsburg Businesses Cover?
The field membrane, insulation, drains, and every curb, plus the walls: coping or caps, counter-flashing, and the joints where roof meets masonry.
Is There East Stroudsburg Commercial Roofing Near Me for Storefronts?
Yes. Storefront blocks with short parapets get the same wall-and-roof inspection as larger buildings, sized to the roof.
Why Hire a Commercial Roofing Contractor Near East Stroudsburg for Wall Work?
Because the roof and the parapet have to be planned together. A roofer who handles both sets the cap, flashing, and membrane heights so they work as one edge.
Do You Need a Mason for Stone Coping?
Sometimes. Metal coping we replace ourselves; stone and terra-cotta caps with failed mortar or anchors are reset by a mason, scheduled before the membrane goes up the wall.
How Do You Tell a Wall Leak From a Roof Leak?
By testing in order. We flood a short stretch of roof near the stain first, then wet the coping joints above it with a hose, watching inside each time. Whichever test brings water through shows the entry point, and the scope names it.
Can the Coping Be Done Later Than the Roof?
It can, but it costs more. Flashing installed now has to be opened again when the coping is redone, and water through the old caps keeps wetting the new edge in the meantime. We price the coping with the roof so the two can be done in one pass.
What Happens to Old Counter-Flashing in the Mortar?
Loose or rusted reglet flashing is removed, the mortar joint is cleaned or cut, and new counter-flashing is set and sealed at the height the new roof needs. Where masonry is too soft to hold it, a surface-mounted bar is used instead and noted in the scope.
