Metal roofs, shingle roofs and honest repairs for Sherman, CT homeowners. Family owned since 2002, and estimates are always free.
Metal roofing is our specialty, but shingles, gutters, soffit and leak work all get the same attention in Sherman.
New skylights set into metal or shingle roofs, with the flashing kit the roof actually calls for rather than a tube of sealant.
When a roof is genuinely finished we replace it, and we say so plainly rather than dressing it up. Metal and shingle priced side by side so you can compare real numbers.
Missing shingles get matched as close as weathering allows. Loose metal gets new fasteners and washers, and the eaves, rakes and ridge get sealed back up tight.
Buying, selling, or just want to know how many years you have left? We look, we tell you, and we do not turn it into a pitch for a roof you do not need.
One leak usually has company. We fix the one you called about and check over the rest of the roof while we are already up there.
Squirrels, wasps and water all treat a soft soffit as a front door. We close it up properly instead of patching over it.
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.
An older roof deserves to keep its character. We repair rather than replace wherever the material still allows it.
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.
Waterproofing details on additions, porches and low slope tie ins, where two roofs meet and most leaks quietly begin.
Repair or replace, we handle both, and we work from what the roof actually needs rather than from what an adjuster might approve.
Temporary cover goes on fast, then we come back and make the permanent repair once we can see properly what we are working with.
Coatings for low slope and older metal roofs that are still sound but weathered. Washed down, refastened, primed at the rust, then coated.
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.
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.
Where it makes sense we set low slope metal over a problem section so it finally drains instead of ponding after every rain.
This is the work our name is attached to. Two decades of tin roofs on houses, churches, barns and additions, installed by crews who cut the trim on site instead of forcing something that almost fits.
Steam and hand work, never a hammer and chisel on your roof. Then we check the eaves for the damage the ice already did.
Guards installed as part of a roof job or on their own. Either way we check the hangers and the pitch while we are up there.
We work around your hours, weekends included when that is what it takes to keep your doors open while the roof goes on.
Metal is what we are known for. Since 2002 the bulk of our work has been standing seam and metal panel roofs, and it is still what most Sherman homeowners call us about. We measure on site, help you settle on a color, and set the panels straight.
We do shingle roofs too, and plenty of them. But if you have been thinking about a tin roof on your Sherman home, that is the conversation we enjoy most — panel type, color, trim, and what it is really going to cost.
Here is what Sherman homeowners tell us makes the difference.
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.
The questions that come up on just about every estimate we write.
A typical Sherman 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.
Most Sherman 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.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Sherman metal roof can go over the top on purlins. If there is rot underneath or two layers already on, we tear off first — and we will tell you that before you sign, not halfway through.
Plenty of them. Most Sherman customers choose from around twenty standard colors, and green, burgundy, bronze, black, gray, tan and barn red are the ones people pick most. We bring the color chart out with the estimate so you can hold it up against your siding.
Much less than people expect. Over solid decking with underlayment under it, a Sherman 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.
We do. After a storm we photograph the damage on your Sherman 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.
Honest words from customers who trusted Roofing Brothers with their roof.
"Showed up when they said they would, both days. That alone puts them ahead of the last three contractors I hired."
"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."
"Honest people. I asked for a quote on a whole new roof and they told me mine had another eight years in it and just needed the valleys resealed. Who does that anymore?"
Our crews cover the surrounding area, not only the city limits.
