Felt, EPDM, single-ply, modified bitumen and liquid-applied flat roofs repaired across Durham and County Durham — with honest advice when a recovering or replacement is the better call.
Flat roof repairs in Durham
Flat roofs do not last forever, and most repair calls come when a covering that has done its years finally lets water in — over an extension, a garage, a dormer or a commercial unit. The aim is to find where and why the covering has failed, repair it properly where that is the right answer, and be straight with you when it is not.
We repair flat roofs across Durham and County Durham for property owners, landlords, managing agents and commercial property teams.
Common flat roof problems
The usual failures are splits, blisters and lifted seams in the membrane; perished or cracked felt at its end of life; failed detailing at upstands, kerbs and outlets; and ponding water where the fall or the outlets are not doing their job.
On older felt roofs, the surface chippings wash off and the felt below dries out and cracks. On rubber and single-ply, the membrane itself is usually sound and the failure is at a joint or a detail — which is where a careful repair makes the difference.
Materials and systems
Modern flat roofs use EPDM rubber, single-ply membrane and liquid-applied systems alongside traditional built-up felt, modified bitumen and mastic asphalt. Each is repaired differently, and a repair only holds when it is compatible with the covering already there.
We identify the system on the roof before recommending anything, rather than reaching for one product for every job.
Repair, or when replacement is the better call
A contained failure on an otherwise sound covering is a repair. Where the membrane is widely perished, where ponding has done its damage, or where the roof has been patched again and again, a repair is throwing good money after bad — and we will say so.
In that case the honest recommendation is a recovering or replacement, and where the work is larger than a straightforward repair it can be handled through Evenii with a proper survey and specification.

Frequently asked questions
Which flat roof systems do you repair?+
We repair built-up felt, EPDM rubber, single-ply membrane, modified bitumen, mastic asphalt and liquid-applied coatings. The right repair depends on which system is on the roof, so identifying the covering correctly is the first step.
Can a flat roof leak be patched, or does it need replacing?+
It depends on the condition of the whole covering. A localised split or a failed detail can often be repaired. Where the membrane is widely perished, blistered or has been patched repeatedly, a repair will not last and a recovering or replacement is the more honest recommendation.
Why does water pond on my flat roof?+
Flat roofs are laid to a slight fall so water runs to the outlets. Ponding usually points to a fall that is too shallow, a sagging deck or blocked outlets. Standing water shortens the life of the covering, so it is worth addressing rather than ignoring.
Do you work on commercial flat roofs as well as domestic?+
Yes. Roof Repairs Durham is part of Evenii Group, a commercial roofing contractor, so flat roofs on commercial and occupied buildings are well within scope — with written notes and photographs for property records.
