Roofing Cromwell homes the way we have since 2002 — measured on site, priced in writing, and finished the way we would want our own roof finished.
From a single lifted panel to a full tear off, we handle every roofing job a Cromwell, CT home is likely to need.
If two other people have caulked it and it still leaks, call us. Most stubborn leaks turn out to be flashing, a valley, or a fastener nobody thought to check.
Coatings for low slope and older metal roofs that are still sound but weathered. Washed down, refastened, primed at the rust, then coated.
A metal roof is the one that outlives the mortgage. We install exposed fastener panels and standing seam over solid decking and real underlayment, with around twenty standard colors to choose from.
Backed out screws, split washers, rust starting at a seam, a panel lifted at the eave. These are our roofs, and most of the time a repair is all it takes.
A replacement is a big spend and it should feel orderly. We schedule around dry weather, work in the right order, and never leave a house open overnight.
The layer you never see is what keeps water out on the ugly days. We do not thin it out to save a few dollars on a bid.
We match the guard to your trees and your gutter profile, and make sure water can still get in where it is supposed to.
Steam and hand work, never a hammer and chisel on your roof. Then we check the eaves for the damage the ice already did.
New skylights set into metal or shingle roofs, with the flashing kit the roof actually calls for rather than a tube of sealant.
Hard wind lifts shingles and works panel fasteners loose along the edges, which is exactly where the next storm gets underneath. We refasten, replace and reseal.
Most roofs somebody has called a lost cause are not one. We repair what can be repaired, and we tell you honestly when a repair will no longer hold.
A careful walk over the whole roof — panels, shingles, valleys, flashing, fasteners — plus the attic side when there is a way in. You get photos and a straight answer.
A shingle repair should not be visible from the street. We match as close as the weathering allows and blend the new work into the old.
Slate and tile take patience and matching pieces. We replace broken and slipped units and rework the flashing they hide.
Where it makes sense we set low slope metal over a problem section so it finally drains instead of ponding after every rain.
Squirrels, wasps and water all treat a soft soffit as a front door. We close it up properly instead of patching over it.
Wind and debris damage is not always obvious from the ground. We check the edges, the ridge, the valleys and the fasteners before telling you anything is fine.
Not every hailstorm ruins a roof. We look before we tell you anything, and if the damage is only cosmetic we will say that too.
Churches, shops, barns and small commercial buildings. We have roofed everything from a wood shed to a steeple.
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.
We have never charged for an estimate and we are not about to start. A Cromwell homeowner ought to be able to find out what a roof costs without buying a sales pitch first, so we measure, photograph what we find, and put a real number on paper.
What people tell us most often is that we told them the truth. Sometimes that truth is that the Cromwell roof they were ready to replace has another eight or ten years in it and only needs the valleys resealed.
A family roofing company that has kept the same habits since 2002.
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.
A few backed out screws or a whole roof off a church — we take both. No job is too small to get the same crew and the same care.
Around twenty standard metal colors, and the chart comes out with the estimate so you can hold it up against your siding and shutters before you commit.
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.
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.
Wondering about metal versus shingle, or what a new roof runs in Cromwell? Start here.
For most Cromwell homes, yes. A metal roof costs more up front than shingles, but it usually outlives two or three shingle roofs, sheds rain and snow better, and does not peel off in a hard wind. We will price metal and shingle side by side so you can compare real numbers instead of guessing.
Most Cromwell 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.
A typical Cromwell shingle roof runs roughly $8,000 to $18,000 in 2026 for an average single family home, and more if the deck has rot or the roof is steep and cut up with dormers. We do not price off a satellite photo — somebody comes out and measures.
Much less than people expect. Over solid decking with underlayment under it, a Cromwell metal roof sounds about like a shingle roof from inside the house. The loud tin roof people remember was screwed straight to open purlins over a barn with nothing underneath.
A metal roof installed properly on a Cromwell home should give you 40 to 60 years, and standing seam often goes longer because there are no exposed fasteners. Screws and sealants on a panel roof want attention around year 20, which is a small job next to a re-roof.
We do. After a storm we photograph the damage on your Cromwell 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.
What people say once the crew has packed up and gone home.
"Ice was backing up at our eaves every winter. They cleared it, then went back and fixed the ventilation, and we have not had the problem since."
"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."
"Metal roof on the barn and one on the shed while they were already out here. Good work on both and the price was fair for that much steel."
