GL MASSEY
Our roof was replaced due to storm damage. Ben Davis was a pleasure to work with. He is very knowledgeable about the process, communicated successfully with our insurance provider. The roofing installers worked long hours to complete the job.
Mike O.
They replaced my roof, gutters, copper on bay windows, as well as replacing/painting 5 dormers. Ben made multiple trips to ensure everything was completed with the quality he demands. We were in constant communication, and we could not be happier with the finished work.
Josh I.
I was dreading the process of replacing our roof and dealing with all the roof sales people. Ben is a no nonsense guy, gets to there point and tells it how it is. He clearly explained everything and walked me through the process.
What Standing Water on a Flat Roof Is Telling You
Service overview
Flat Roof Repair in Raleigh: Drainage, Membranes and Details
No flat roof is truly flat. A well-built low-slope roof falls toward its drains, scuppers or gutter edge, usually at least a quarter inch per foot. Many older roofs were built dead level or have settled since, and that is where most trouble starts. Our flat roof repair work in Raleigh begins with where the water goes: we map the low spots, clear and check every drain, and walk each seam and wall flashing before recommending anything.
01
Finding the cause, not just the drip
On a membrane roof the opening and the interior stain can be yards apart, and wet insulation underneath can keep feeding a leak after the surface is patched. We look for soft areas underfoot and trace water from the stain back toward the high side of the roof.

Once we know how far the water has spread, the repair or replacement decision is based on evidence. A roof that sounds hollow or feels spongy underfoot has usually been taking on water for a long time, and patching the surface over wet board only traps that moisture against the deck, where it can rot wood decking or rust a steel one.
02
Membrane options
Low-slope roofs use sheet or rolled systems rather than shingles. Pro Performance offers flat and low-slope systems, including rolled roofing.

Ask which system is appropriate and available for your building.
03
Repair, restore or replace
An open seam, a puncture or failed flashing may be repairable. Widespread wet insulation, repeated ponding and brittle seams can point toward replacement.

Why Pro Performance
Why Owners Bring Their Flat Roofs to Pro Performance
We Fix Where the Water Sits
Patching the spot that leaked does nothing if water still pools there after every storm. We identify whether the issue is related to a low area, drain or slope, and include any proposed corrective work in the written scope.
Membrane Work Done as Membrane Work
A low-slope roof is not a shingle roof laid flat. Seams, laps and curb flashing follow the membrane maker's methods, and we will not treat them with roofing tar and hope.
Evidence Before the Big Decision
Replacement is a large spend, so we show you why. You see where water pooled, which seams failed and how far moisture spread before choosing repair or a new roof.
Clear on What Is Included
Your scope names the system, the drainage work, the flashing and the exclusions. For a porch roof or a strip of retail, you know exactly what you are paying for before anyone climbs a ladder.

Pricing
How Much Does Flat Roof Repair Cost in Raleigh?
The biggest factor is how far the water has spread. A failed seam over dry insulation is a contained repair. A roof holding water across several bays, with soaked insulation below, is a replacement with drainage corrections. Between those sit coatings and partial tear-offs . Size, the membrane chosen, the number of drains and curbs, and how material reaches the roof also move the number.
We price low-slope work after inspecting the roof. Ask whether a diagnostic fee applies to your visit and how it will be credited. Inspections for full replacements and insurance claims are free.

Flat Roof Repair FAQ
How long does flat roof repair take?
A contained seam or curb repair is usually a short visit once the cause is found. Replacing a membrane takes longer, and more again if wet insulation comes out or tapered insulation goes in. Timing depends on the scope of work and weather. We discuss the expected schedule after inspecting the roof.
How much does flat roof repair cost in Raleigh?
It depends mostly on how far water has spread under the membrane. A single failed seam costs far less than replacing soaked insulation across the roof. Size, membrane type, drains and access matter too. We quote flat roof repair in writing after seeing the roof. A leak visit may include a diagnostic charge , which you know about before we come out and which is credited when we carry out the repair.
How do I know if I need flat roof repair or a new roof?
Start with the extent of the problem. One open seam, a puncture or failed flashing at a wall usually calls for flat roof repair. Ponding across large areas, soft spots underfoot, many brittle seams or wet insulation across several sections usually mean replacement. We show you the evidence for whichever way it goes, so the decision is yours to make with facts in hand.
Do you offer same-day flat roof leak service?
Call to ask about the next available visit. If water is entering the property, tell us that first and ask about temporary protection. Do not climb onto a wet or damaged roof.
Is standing water on a flat roof normal?
A little water for a few hours after a storm is normal on some low-slope roofs. Water that is still there two days later is not. Long-standing puddles speed up aging of the membrane, add weight to the structure and leave dirt rings that hold more water next time. Ponding usually means a clogged drain, a sagging deck or missing slope, and each has a different fix.
What is the best material for a flat roof?
It depends on the building. Reflective white membranes such as TPO help on sunny commercial roofs where cooling costs matter. Rubber EPDM is a long-standing choice for many low-slope roofs. Modified bitumen rolls often suit porches and small sections. Ask which systems are offered and appropriate for your building’s drainage, foot traffic and rooftop equipment.
