Will Flex Seal Fix a Roof Leak?
Flex Seal products can be used to seal minor roof leaks, especially for temporary or quick fixes.
Here’s how it works:
- Flex Seal Spray can be applied directly to small cracks, gaps, or seams where water is entering. It forms a waterproof rubberized barrier that keeps moisture out.
- Flex Seal Liquid is ideal for larger surface areas. Brush or roll it onto shingles or around roof penetrations like vents or flashing.
- Flex Tape offers instant sealing power for small punctures, cracks, or holes, especially when time is critical.
- Flex Paste can be used to seal larger holes or active leaks. Pair it with wire mesh for bigger repairs to help bridge and reinforce the gap. The paste adheres to the mesh and creates a thick, durable, waterproof seal.
Flexpert Tip: Flex Seal Spray works best on clean, dry surfaces, but can be used on wet surfaces in emergency situations. Once the area is dry, add additional coats for optimal protection.
Where Flex Seal Products Work Best on Roofs:
- Around flashing or vent pipes
- Along gutter seams or joints
- Over holes or worn shingles
- On RV roofs or mobile homes
Note: Flex Seal products are not a permanent fix for significant structural damage or full-roof repairs. If your roof has significant wear or ongoing leaks, have a roofing professional assess the damage.
