Straight answers and careful work on roof leak repair in Alexander, IA. Metal roofing is our specialty, but we do the whole roof.
If your Alexander roof has been caulked twice and still leaks, the caulk was never the answer. Most of the stubborn ones come down to flashing at a chimney or wall, a valley that was never lapped right, or fasteners that have backed out.
Roofing Brothers has been doing roof leak repair since 2002, first around Morganton, North Carolina and now for Alexander homeowners through our network of local crews. The standard has not moved: measure it right, fasten it right, and never cut a corner where water can find it.
Before any roof leak repair starts in Alexander you will know the price, the material and the schedule. Estimates are always free, and nobody is going to push you to decide while somebody is still standing in your driveway.
How a job actually runs, from the first phone call to the last magnet pass over the driveway.
We look at the stain, the attic and the framing above it, because the path the water took tells us far more than the ceiling does.
If it is not obvious we test with water rather than guessing and charging you for a repair that fixes nothing.
Materials get matched as close as we can so the repair blends into the roof around it.
While we are up there we look over the whole roof, because one old enough to leak in one place usually has a second one starting.
Questions homeowners ask us about this kind of work.
Because water travels. It runs along decking and rafters before it drips, so the stain on a Alexander ceiling is rarely under the actual hole. We work backward from the stain to the real entry point.
Yes, and it is included. A Alexander roof old enough to leak in one place usually has a second one starting, and we would rather show you the photographs now than come back in six months.
Flashing, nearly always. Chimneys, wall tie ins, valleys, pipe boots and skylights account for most of the leaks we chase on Alexander homes. The open field of a roof is rarely the problem.
Most leak repairs on a Alexander home are a few hundred to around fifteen hundred dollars, depending on what has to be opened up and whether decking underneath has gone soft. The estimate is free.
Our reputation is just the roofs behind us.

"Metal roof on the barn and one on the shed while they were already out here. Good work on both and the price was fair for that much steel."
