A family roofing company serving Hunt and the rest of New York through our network of local crews. Tin roofs, repairs and replacements done right.
Pick a service to see how we handle it and what the job usually looks like on a Hunt roof.
A metal roof is the one that outlives the mortgage. We install exposed fastener panels and standing seam over solid decking and real underlayment, with around twenty standard colors to choose from.
Reflective coatings keep a metal roof cooler in summer and seal up the small stuff before it turns into a leak.
We repair standing seam, exposed fastener panels and metal shingles, and we match the color as closely as the paint system will allow.
Lifted panels, missing shingles, flashing that has given up where the chimney comes through. We find what is actually wrong, fix that, and leave the rest of your roof alone.
One leak usually has company. We fix the one you called about and check over the rest of the roof while we are already up there.
Underlayment, ice and water shield in the valleys and along the eaves, sealed penetrations, and proper closures at the ridge.
A careful walk over the whole roof — panels, shingles, valleys, flashing, fasteners — plus the attic side when there is a way in. You get photos and a straight answer.
A skylight has to be woven into the roof, not caulked to it. That is the difference between a fix that lasts a season and one that holds.
If wind got under your roof once it will try again. We fix the damage and close the edge back up so there is nothing left to catch.
A shingle repair should not be visible from the street. We match as close as the weathering allows and blend the new work into the old.
Guards installed as part of a roof job or on their own. Either way we check the hangers and the pitch while we are up there.
Storm damage does not wait for business hours. We get the opening closed, photograph it for your insurance, and put the real fix on the schedule.
After a storm we walk the roof, photograph everything we find, and write an itemized estimate you can hand straight to your adjuster.
The edge of a roof is where most trouble starts. New fascia, new soffit, wrapped or painted so it stays sound.
An older roof deserves to keep its character. We repair rather than replace wherever the material still allows it.
Where it makes sense we set low slope metal over a problem section so it finally drains instead of ponding after every rain.
Repair or replace, we handle both, and we work from what the roof actually needs rather than from what an adjuster might approve.
A replacement is a big spend and it should feel orderly. We schedule around dry weather, work in the right order, and never leave a house open overnight.
We work around your hours, weekends included when that is what it takes to keep your doors open while the roof goes on.
Ice backs up at a cold eave and pushes water sideways under the roof. We clear it without gouging the panels or the shingles.
Roofing Brothers began in 2002 as a family roofing company in Morganton, North Carolina, and it is still run the way it started. Homeowners in Hunt reach that same outfit — the one that has been setting metal panels and laying shingles for over twenty years — through our network of local crews.
In a city the size of Hunt, word travels fast about who does good work and who does not. That suits us fine. We would rather put one roof on right and have the neighbors ask about it than chase volume all over New York.
Nothing fancy — free estimates, honest answers, and roofs that go on straight.
The same family started this company putting metal roofs on neighbors houses in 2002. It has never been sold, franchised or handed off to a call center.
A few backed out screws or a whole roof off a church — we take both. No job is too small to get the same crew and the same care.
You get a start date and we hold to it. If weather moves your job we call you, rather than leaving you watching the driveway.
If your roof needs a repair and not a replacement, we say so. Plenty of our best customers are people we talked out of a job they did not need yet.
Somebody comes out, measures, gets on the roof, and leaves you a written price. No charge, no obligation, and no number that expires if you do not sign today.
Common questions from Hunt, NY homeowners about metal roofs, repairs and what a roof costs.
We do. After a storm we photograph the damage on your Hunt roof and write an itemized estimate you can hand to your adjuster. We do not file the claim for you and we will not promise you what an adjuster is going to approve — that is their call, not ours.
Much less than people expect. Over solid decking with underlayment under it, a Hunt metal roof sounds about like a shingle roof from inside the house. The loud tin roof people remember was screwed straight to open purlins over a barn with nothing underneath.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Hunt metal roof can go over the top on purlins. If there is rot underneath or two layers already on, we tear off first — and we will tell you that before you sign, not halfway through.
For most Hunt homes, yes. A metal roof costs more up front than shingles, but it usually outlives two or three shingle roofs, sheds rain and snow better, and does not peel off in a hard wind. We will price metal and shingle side by side so you can compare real numbers instead of guessing.
Often, yes. Plenty of the Hunt roofs we get called to look at need flashing reworked or a section refastened, not a whole new roof. We will tell you honestly which one you are looking at, and if it is repairable we would rather repair it.
No. Estimates are always free in Hunt. We come out, measure, look in the attic if we can get to it, and leave you a written price. Nobody will push you to sign anything that day, and the number does not expire in an hour.
We would rather let the work, and the people who paid for it, do the talking.
"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."
"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."
"Green metal over the whole house and the carport. Looks sharp, and it is quiet inside when it rains, which honestly surprised me."
