Straight answers and careful work on roof leak repair in Dexter, IA. Metal roofing is our specialty, but we do the whole roof.
If your Dexter 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 Dexter 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 Dexter 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.
Yes, and it is included. A Dexter 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.
We fix the roof so it stops. Drywall and insulation repair inside a Dexter home is a different trade, and we will tell you that honestly rather than pretending it is part of the roofing job.
Flashing, nearly always. Chimneys, wall tie ins, valleys, pipe boots and skylights account for most of the leaks we chase on Dexter homes. The open field of a roof is rarely the problem.
Because water travels. It runs along decking and rafters before it drips, so the stain on a Dexter ceiling is rarely under the actual hole. We work backward from the stain to the real entry point.
Our reputation is just the roofs behind us.
