Straight answers and careful work on roof leak repair in Shelby, NC. Metal roofing is our specialty, but we do the whole roof.
A leak in a Shelby house almost never announces where it started. Water runs down decking and along rafters before it finally shows on a ceiling, so we work backward from the stain to the real point of entry and fix that.
Roofing Brothers has been doing roof leak repair since 2002, first around Morganton, North Carolina and now for Shelby 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 Shelby 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.
Where the attic is accessible we go up with a light and follow the tracks back toward the entry point.
If it is not obvious we test with water rather than guessing and charging you for a repair that fixes nothing.
We repair what is letting water in rather than the symptom, which usually means reworking flashing instead of adding more sealant.
You get photographs of anything we spot, with no obligation to do a thing about it today.
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 Shelby ceiling is rarely under the actual hole. We work backward from the stain to the real entry point.
Flashing, nearly always. Chimneys, wall tie ins, valleys, pipe boots and skylights account for most of the leaks we chase on Shelby homes. The open field of a roof is rarely the problem.
We can usually get a Shelby roof covered and stop the water in the middle of weather, but the permanent repair waits for a dry stretch. Sealing something wet just means doing it twice.
Yes, and it is included. A Shelby 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.
What people said once the job was finished and the trucks were gone.
"They found a leak two other roofers could not. Turned out to be the chimney flashing, not the roof at all. Fixed in one afternoon and it has been dry ever since."
"Thank you so much to the entire crew at Roofing Brothers for our amazing new tin roof! You were amazing to work with and I couldn't recommend you to others enough! Great communication, pricing, color options, efficiency, and HONESTY! If anyone needs a new roof, I highly recommend this crew! Phenomenal job."
"Wind peeled up the edge of our roof and they came out that same evening to cover it so the rain would not get in. Permanent repair the following week."
