Straight answers and careful work on metal roof installation in Hackettstown, NJ. Metal roofing is our specialty, but we do the whole roof.
Most Hackettstown homeowners who call us about a metal roof want two things answered first: what it costs and what colors they can have. We bring the chart with the estimate, measure the roof ourselves, and give you a written price that covers panels, trim, underlayment and tear off.
Roofing Brothers has been doing metal roof installation since 2002, first around Morganton, North Carolina and now for Hackettstown 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 Hackettstown 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.
Rotten decking gets replaced and priced with you before it is covered up. Nobody wants to learn about that afterward.
Panels are cut on site so the lengths are right and the ends land where they should. Longer runs mean fewer laps and fewer places to leak.
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 Hackettstown 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 Hackettstown 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 Hackettstown 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 Hackettstown 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.

"Twenty year old tin roof with screws backing out everywhere. They refastened the whole thing with new washers instead of talking me into a replacement I did not need."
