roof leak repair for Elizabethtown homes, handled by a family roofing company that has been at it since 2002. Estimates are always free.
If your Elizabethtown 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.
Our roof leak repair work in Elizabethtown 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 Elizabethtown 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.
The order we work in, and why each step matters more than it looks.
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.
The things people want to know before they tell us to go ahead.
Flashing, nearly always. Chimneys, wall tie ins, valleys, pipe boots and skylights account for most of the leaks we chase on Elizabethtown homes. The open field of a roof is rarely the problem.
Yes, and it is included. A Elizabethtown 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.
Because water travels. It runs along decking and rafters before it drips, so the stain on a Elizabethtown ceiling is rarely under the actual hole. We work backward from the stain to the real entry point.
Most leak repairs on a Elizabethtown home are a few hundred to around fifteen hundred dollars, depending on what has to be opened up and whether decking underneath has gone soft. The estimate is free.
Honest words from customers, in their own wording.
"Green metal over the whole house and the carport. Looks sharp, and it is quiet inside when it rains, which honestly surprised me."
"Roofing Brothers do excellent work. They've completed several projects for me and every time the quality has been top notch. They're reliable and take pride in what they do. I highly recommend them!"
"Second roof they have done for our family. My sister used them first and would not hear of me calling anybody else."
