Metal roofs, shingle roofs and honest repairs for Fort Branch, IN homeowners. Family owned since 2002, and estimates are always free.
Metal roofing is our specialty, but shingles, gutters, soffit and leak work all get the same attention in Fort Branch.
New skylights set into metal or shingle roofs, with the flashing kit the roof actually calls for rather than a tube of sealant.
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.
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.
Repair or replace, we handle both, and we work from what the roof actually needs rather than from what an adjuster might approve.
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.
Slate and tile take patience and matching pieces. We replace broken and slipped units and rework the flashing they hide.
Guards and screens so you are not up a ladder every fall digging pine needles out of the gutter by hand.
Steam and hand work, never a hammer and chisel on your roof. Then we check the eaves for the damage the ice already did.
Coatings for low slope and older metal roofs that are still sound but weathered. Washed down, refastened, primed at the rust, then coated.
We repair standing seam, exposed fastener panels and metal shingles, and we match the color as closely as the paint system will allow.
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.
Metal, shingle and low slope work on buildings where a leak costs you more than a wet ceiling. Free estimates, same as anywhere else.
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.
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.
We repair what the storm actually broke. If that is one slope, we do one slope, and we will not pad an estimate to make a claim look bigger.
We still shingle plenty of roofs. Cracked, curled and blown off shingles get replaced, and the valleys and flashing get reworked while we are up there.
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.
Where it makes sense we set low slope metal over a problem section so it finally drains instead of ponding after every rain.
Underlayment, ice and water shield in the valleys and along the eaves, sealed penetrations, and proper closures at the ridge.
Rotted fascia and sagging soffit let water and animals in behind the roof edge. We cut the bad wood out and put new in.
Here is what working with us looks like in Fort Branch: you call, somebody comes out and measures, and you get a written estimate with the panel or the shingle spelled out on it. If you say go, we schedule you and we show up on that day.
The crew tarps the beds, keeps the yard picked up as they go, and runs a magnet over the drive before pulling out. Small things, but they are the ones Fort Branch homeowners still mention a year later.
Here is what Fort Branch homeowners tell us makes the difference.
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.
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.
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.
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.
The questions that come up on just about every estimate we write.
Often, yes. Plenty of the Fort Branch 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.
Plenty of them. Most Fort Branch customers choose from around twenty standard colors, and green, burgundy, bronze, black, gray, tan and barn red are the ones people pick most. We bring the color chart out with the estimate so you can hold it up against your siding.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Fort Branch 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.
Yes. Gutters, guards, soffit and fascia are all part of keeping the edge of a Fort Branch roof dry, so we handle them along with the roof instead of sending you off to find somebody else to finish the job.
We do. After a storm we photograph the damage on your Fort Branch 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.
Most Fort Branch houses are a two to four day job. A straightforward shingle roof can be done in a day or two. A cut up metal roof takes longer because every panel, valley and trim piece is measured and fit on site rather than pulled out of a box.
