Does your roof leak when it rains? These may be the most common causes
A damp patch on the ceiling is only the visible part of the problem. The cause of a leaking roof is often elsewhere, so it is worth knowing which points to check first.

Frequently asked questions
How many years of warranty does Tető Mesterfokon Kft. provide for roof renovation and roof waterproofing works?
We carry out the work in Class I quality, following the building material manufacturer's application guidelines. We give a warranty of up to 10 years on our work; the exact period and conditions of the warranty are set out in the contract.
How often should the condition of roof renovation/waterproofing be reviewed?
It is worth keeping continuous watch on the roof, checking it after major storms, but annual maintenance at minimum is recommended, where any faults detected can be addressed in time before they become larger problems. It is recommended to schedule this annual roof maintenance after leaf fall, so that the inspection can be combined with a gutter/drain cleaning as well.
Is a deposit required before roof waterproofing work begins?
We never ask for a deposit. For roof waterproofing and/or renovation work on family homes, the full cost is usually payable after the work has been handed over. When there is a significant material requirement, the total cost is split into two payments:
- a part upon delivery of the materials required for roof waterproofing and renovation,
- a part after the work has been handed over.
How long does the roof renovation take?
The roof waterproofing or roof refurbishment of an average family home is usually completed within a week. Larger projects, factories, apartment blocks and halls are in most cases finished within a few weeks.
How soon can roof waterproofing work begin after placing an order?
The start date is largely influenced by the weather, but work can generally begin within 1–1.5 months of the order.
Which areas of the country does Tető Mesterfokon Kft. serve?
We mainly operate in Central and Western Hungary, but it is not uncommon to receive orders from the eastern part of the country as well.
How much does roof renovation/waterproofing cost? (per m2 price, material+labour)
No two roofs are the same; every roof renovation has its own unique requirements. The simpler the shape, the lower the installation cost.
The basic formal variations of pitched roofs, i.e. the roof types:
-
- gable roof;
- mono-pitch (lean-to) roof;
- hip roof;
- Dutch gable (gablet) roof;
- truncated hip roof;
- tent roof;
- tower roof;
- conical roof;
- cupola roof;
- mansard or French roof;
- basilica roof;
- sawtooth or shed roof;
- cross roof
Flat roofs also belong here.
The installation costs of the works also depend on what the roof covering is:
- slate,
- asphalt shingle,
- onduline,
- tile,
- corrugated fibre-cement sheet.
Moreover, in some cases demolition, thermal insulation or a 1- or 2-layer waterproofing system may also be involved, so it is very difficult to give a per-square-metre price. After a telephone conversation in which we receive basic information about the roof, possibly photos and dimensions by e-mail, it is already easier to give an approximate value. But for an exact quote, a free on-site survey is absolutely necessary.
What are the first steps when considering roof waterproofing?
It is important that we are well informed about roof waterproofing, because uncovering any potential fault and selecting the right roof waterproofing specialists and technologies requires proper insight.
In today's world, our task is easy, because a huge amount of information is available on the internet.
From this large amount of information we need to filter out the sources that are relevant and trustworthy for us.
If you contact a specialist, be sure to request an on‑site survey afterwards!
