Dependable roof leak repair for Scotch Plains homeowners from Roofing Brothers — measured on site, done on schedule, and cleaned up after.
We fix the leak you called about and then check the rest of the roof while we are up there, because on most Scotch Plains 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.
When a Scotch Plains homeowner calls us about roof leak repair, the first thing we do is come look. Somebody from the crew gets on the roof, checks the decking, flashing and fasteners, and works out what the job actually needs before a number is ever written down.
You get a written estimate for the roof leak repair on your Scotch Plains home with the materials named and the price broken out, and that estimate is free. If we find something once the work starts, we stop, show you, and price it before we go any further.
What to expect once you call us out to look at your roof.
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.
Straight answers, no sales talk.
Yes, and it is included. A Scotch Plains 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 Scotch Plains ceiling is rarely under the actual hole. We work backward from the stain to the real entry point.
Flashing, nearly always. Chimneys, wall tie ins, valleys, pipe boots and skylights account for most of the leaks we chase on Scotch Plains homes. The open field of a roof is rarely the problem.
We can usually get a Scotch Plains roof covered and stop the water in the middle of weather, but the permanent repair waits for a dry stretch. Sealing something wet just means doing it twice.
What people said once the job was finished and the trucks were gone.
"Burgundy metal roof on our brick ranch and I get compliments on it constantly. They brought the color chart out and let us take our time deciding."
"Green metal over the whole house and the carport. Looks sharp, and it is quiet inside when it rains, which honestly surprised me."
"They roofed our addition and tied in the porch that runs off it. One crew, one number to call, and every line of it matched up."
