A family roofing company serving Calabash and the rest of North Carolina through our network of local crews. Tin roofs, repairs and replacements done right.
From a single lifted panel to a full tear off, we handle every roofing job a Calabash, NC home is likely to need.
This is the work our name is attached to. Two decades of tin roofs on houses, churches, barns and additions, installed by crews who cut the trim on site instead of forcing something that almost fits.
The edge of a roof is where most trouble starts. New fascia, new soffit, wrapped or painted so it stays sound.
Missing shingles get matched as close as weathering allows. Loose metal gets new fasteners and washers, and the eaves, rakes and ridge get sealed back up tight.
Coatings for low slope and older metal roofs that are still sound but weathered. Washed down, refastened, primed at the rust, then coated.
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.
Repair or replace, we handle both, and we work from what the roof actually needs rather than from what an adjuster might approve.
When a roof is genuinely finished we replace it, and we say so plainly rather than dressing it up. Metal and shingle priced side by side so you can compare real numbers.
Backed out screws, split washers, rust starting at a seam, a panel lifted at the eave. These are our roofs, and most of the time a repair is all it takes.
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.
Old skylights leak at the flashing long before the glass ever fails. We reflash, reseal, or set a new unit and tie it in properly.
Careful footwork, matched materials, and flashing done the way it was done when the roof went on.
After a storm we walk the roof, photograph everything we find, and write an itemized estimate you can hand straight to your adjuster.
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.
Where it makes sense we set low slope metal over a problem section so it finally drains instead of ponding after every rain.
Temporary cover goes on fast, then we come back and make the permanent repair once we can see properly what we are working with.
Churches, shops, barns and small commercial buildings. We have roofed everything from a wood shed to a steeple.
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.
The layer you never see is what keeps water out on the ugly days. We do not thin it out to save a few dollars on a bid.
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.
Steam and hand work, never a hammer and chisel on your roof. Then we check the eaves for the damage the ice already did.
We have never charged for an estimate and we are not about to start. A Calabash homeowner ought to be able to find out what a roof costs without buying a sales pitch first, so we measure, photograph what we find, and put a real number on paper.
What people tell us most often is that we told them the truth. Sometimes that truth is that the Calabash roof they were ready to replace has another eight or ten years in it and only needs the valleys resealed.
A family roofing company that has kept the same habits since 2002.
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.
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.
Around twenty standard metal colors, and the chart comes out with the estimate so you can hold it up against your siding and shutters before you commit.
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.
Standing seam and metal panel roofs are the work we are known for. Color, trim, fastening pattern — we have done hundreds and we will walk you through all of it.
Wondering about metal versus shingle, or what a new roof runs in Calabash? Start here.
No. Estimates are always free in Calabash. 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.
Yes. Gutters, guards, soffit and fascia are all part of keeping the edge of a Calabash roof dry, so we handle them along with the roof instead of sending you off to find somebody else to finish the job.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Calabash 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.
Often, yes. Plenty of the Calabash 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.
We do. After a storm we photograph the damage on your Calabash 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 Calabash 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.
We would rather let the work, and the people who paid for it, do the talking.
"Nice work on the roof and good communication throughout. I would have liked a little more warning about the dumpster arriving, but that is a small thing."
"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."
We take care of homeowners in these neighboring communities as well.
