Need metal roof installation in East Thetford? We come look first, tell you plainly what it needs, and put the price in writing before anything starts.
A metal roof is what Roofing Brothers is known for, and it has been since 2002. On a East Thetford home that means standing seam or exposed fastener panels set over sound decking and real underlayment, with the ridge, valley and eave trim cut and fit on site rather than forced out of a box.
Our metal roof installation work in East Thetford is handled by crews who do this every week, not by whoever happened to be free that morning. It shows up in the details — valleys, chimney flashing, eave and ridge closures — because that is where roofs actually leak.
We schedule your East Thetford metal roof installation for a stretch of dry weather, keep the job site picked up as we go, and do not leave a roof open overnight. When it is done the tear off is hauled away and a magnet goes over the drive.
The order we work in, and why each step matters more than it looks.
Panel type comes first — standing seam or exposed fastener — then color, then trim. We walk you through the trade offs on each one.
Rotten decking gets replaced and priced with you before it is covered up. Nobody wants to learn about that afterward.
Synthetic underlayment over the whole roof, ice and water shield in the valleys and at the eaves, then panels set square on the correct fastener spacing.
Every penetration gets a proper boot or flashing instead of a bead of sealant and a hope.
The things people want to know before they tell us to go ahead.
Much less than people expect. Over solid decking with underlayment, a East Thetford metal roof sounds about like a shingle roof from inside. The loud tin roof people remember was screwed to open purlins on a barn.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a East Thetford metal roof can go over the top on purlins. Two layers or rot underneath and we tear off first — and we say so before you sign.
Around twenty standard colors. Green, burgundy, bronze, black, gray, tan and barn red are the ones most East Thetford homeowners land on. We bring the chart with the estimate so you can hold it against your siding.
A straightforward East Thetford house is usually three to five days. A cut up roof with dormers, valleys and multiple pitches takes longer, because every panel and trim piece gets measured and fit on site.
Real feedback from homeowners we have worked for.
"New gutters and guards after they did our roof. No more climbing up there every October to dig out pine needles by hand."
"They replaced the soffit and fascia the squirrels had chewed through and closed everything back up tight. No more scratching in the attic at night."
"They roofed our addition and tied in the porch that runs off it. One crew, one number to call, and every line of it matched up."
