Straight answers and careful work on metal roof installation in Naperville, IL. Metal roofing is our specialty, but we do the whole roof.
We have been setting metal panels on houses, churches, barns and additions for over twenty years, and the crews serving Naperville install them the same way we always have. Straight lines, correct fastener spacing, and closures at the ridge so wind driven rain has nowhere to go.
Roofing Brothers has been doing metal roof installation since 2002, first around Morganton, North Carolina and now for Naperville homeowners through our network of local crews. The standard has not moved: measure it right, fasten it right, and never cut a corner where water can find it.
Before any metal roof installation starts in Naperville you will know the price, the material and the schedule. Estimates are always free, and nobody is going to push you to decide while somebody is still standing in your driveway.
How a job actually runs, from the first phone call to the last magnet pass over the driveway.
We measure the roof on site, count the valleys, hips and penetrations, and bring the color chart so you can hold it up against your siding.
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.
We keep panels straight to a line rather than to the eye, because a metal roof shows every bit of drift the moment the sun hits it.
Ridge caps, closures, drip edge and gable trim finish the roof and keep wind driven rain and wasps out from under the panels.
Questions homeowners ask us about this kind of work.
Much less than people expect. Over solid decking with underlayment, a Naperville metal roof sounds about like a shingle roof from inside. The loud tin roof people remember was screwed to open purlins on a barn.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Naperville 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.
Around twenty standard colors. Green, burgundy, bronze, black, gray, tan and barn red are the ones most Naperville homeowners land on. We bring the chart with the estimate so you can hold it against your siding.
Installed properly over sound decking, a metal roof should give a Naperville home 40 to 60 years. Standing seam often goes longer because there are no exposed fasteners to work loose or leak.
Our reputation is just the roofs behind us.
"They found a leak two other roofers could not. Turned out to be the chimney flashing, not the roof at all. Fixed in one afternoon and it has been dry ever since."
