Need roof leak repair in Charlestown? We come look first, tell you plainly what it needs, and put the price in writing before anything starts.
We fix the leak you called about and then check the rest of the roof while we are up there, because on most Charlestown homes a roof old enough to leak in one place is usually working on a second. Estimates are free and the repair gets priced in writing.
Our roof leak repair work in Charlestown 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 Charlestown roof leak repair 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.
Four steps and no surprises. This is how we have done it since 2002.
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.
Water can travel several feet along decking before it drips, so we never assume the hole is directly above the stain.
If the cause turns out to be a roof that is genuinely finished, we tell you that instead of patching it forever.
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.
What comes up on just about every estimate for a job like this.
Because water travels. It runs along decking and rafters before it drips, so the stain on a Charlestown ceiling is rarely under the actual hole. We work backward from the stain to the real entry point.
Yes, and it is included. A Charlestown 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.
Flashing, nearly always. Chimneys, wall tie ins, valleys, pipe boots and skylights account for most of the leaks we chase on Charlestown homes. The open field of a roof is rarely the problem.
We fix the roof so it stops. Drywall and insulation repair inside a Charlestown home is a different trade, and we will tell you that honestly rather than pretending it is part of the roofing job.
Real feedback from homeowners we have worked for.
"Showed up when they said they would, both days. That alone puts them ahead of the last three contractors I hired."
"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."
"The skylight had leaked for two years and three different people had caulked it. These folks reflashed it properly and that was the end of it."
