Need metal roof installation in Brainerd? We come look first, tell you plainly what it needs, and put the price in writing before anything starts.
A metal roof is what Roofing Brothers is known for, and it has been since 2002. On a Brainerd home that means standing seam or exposed fastener panels set over sound decking and real underlayment, with the ridge, valley and eave trim cut and fit on site rather than forced out of a box.
Not every Brainerd roof needs the biggest job on the sheet. When we quote metal roof installation we tell you honestly whether a repair will hold, whether doing one section will do, or whether you are genuinely past that — and we would rather do the smaller job well.
Metal is our specialty, so if metal roof installation on your Brainerd home opens the door to standing seam or a panel roof, we will price that right alongside the shingle option and let you compare the real numbers side by side.
The order we work in, and why each step matters more than it looks.
Nothing gets ordered until you have a written price in hand and have settled on the color you actually want.
Where the decking is sound and there is only one layer, we can often go over the top on purlins. We tell you which one your house calls for.
Synthetic underlayment over the whole roof, ice and water shield in the valleys and at the eaves, then panels set square on the correct fastener spacing.
Then the yard gets picked up, the scrap gets hauled off, and a magnet goes over the drive before we pull out.
What comes up on just about every estimate for a job like this.
Much less than people expect. Over solid decking with underlayment, a Brainerd metal roof sounds about like a shingle roof from inside. The loud tin roof people remember was screwed to open purlins on a barn.
Installed properly over sound decking, a metal roof should give a Brainerd home 40 to 60 years. Standing seam often goes longer because there are no exposed fasteners to work loose or leak.
Around twenty standard colors. Green, burgundy, bronze, black, gray, tan and barn red are the ones most Brainerd homeowners land on. We bring the chart with the estimate so you can hold it against your siding.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Brainerd metal roof can go over the top on purlins. Two layers or rot underneath and we tear off first — and we say so before you sign.
Real feedback from homeowners we have worked for.
"Nice work on the roof and good communication throughout. I would have liked a little more warning about the dumpster arriving, but that is a small thing."
"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."
"Green metal over the whole house and the carport. Looks sharp, and it is quiet inside when it rains, which honestly surprised me."
