A family roofing company serving Portland and the rest of Michigan 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 Portland roof.
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.
We work around your hours, weekends included when that is what it takes to keep your doors open while the roof goes on.
After a storm we walk the roof, photograph everything we find, and write an itemized estimate you can hand straight to your adjuster.
Buying, selling, or just want to know how many years you have left? We look, we tell you, and we do not turn it into a pitch for a roof you do not need.
Standing seam and metal panel roofs, measured and cut on site. We help you settle on a color, set the panels straight, and trim the ridge and valleys so the whole roof sheds water the way it should.
An older roof deserves to keep its character. We repair rather than replace wherever the material still allows it.
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.
Guards and screens so you are not up a ladder every fall digging pine needles out of the gutter by hand.
Coatings for low slope and older metal roofs that are still sound but weathered. Washed down, refastened, primed at the rust, then coated.
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.
We repair standing seam, exposed fastener panels and metal shingles, and we match the color as closely as the paint system will allow.
Where it makes sense we set low slope metal over a problem section so it finally drains instead of ponding after every rain.
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.
Rotted fascia and sagging soffit let water and animals in behind the roof edge. We cut the bad wood out and put new in.
A limb through the roof or panels peeled back overnight needs covering now, not next week. We get it dried in first so the inside of the house stops taking damage.
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.
Small repairs get the same crew and the same care as a full roof. Free estimate, a price in writing, and the work done before the next rain moves in.
Hail bruises shingles and dents the softer metal on vents, valleys and gutters. We show you what we find and document it properly for the claim.
Underlayment, ice and water shield in the valleys and along the eaves, sealed penetrations, and proper closures at the ridge.
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 are a family roofing company with roots in Morganton, North Carolina going back to 2002. What began as metal roofs for neighbors turned into two decades of tin roofs, shingle roofs, repairs and church steeples, and Portland homeowners now reach us through our network of local crews.
A city like Portland has no shortage of roofers knocking on doors after a storm. We are not that. We come when you call, we look at what you actually have, and estimates are always free.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Common questions from Portland, MI homeowners about metal roofs, repairs and what a roof costs.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Portland 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.
That is most of what leak work is. Water runs along decking and rafters before it ever drips, so the stain on your Portland ceiling is rarely under the actual hole. We work back to the real entry point, fix that, and check the rest of the roof while we are up there.
For most Portland 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.
A metal roof installed properly on a Portland home should give you 40 to 60 years, and standing seam often goes longer because there are no exposed fasteners. Screws and sealants on a panel roof want attention around year 20, which is a small job next to a re-roof.
We do. After a storm we photograph the damage on your Portland 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.
Often, yes. Plenty of the Portland 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 would rather let the work, and the people who paid for it, do the talking.
"Metal roof on the barn and one on the shed while they were already out here. Good work on both and the price was fair for that much steel."
"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."
"Twenty year old tin roof with screws backing out everywhere. They refastened the whole thing with new washers instead of talking me into a replacement I did not need."
