A family roofing company serving Wadena and the rest of Iowa through our network of local crews. Tin roofs, repairs and replacements done right.
From a single lifted panel to a full tear off, we handle every roofing job a Wadena, IA home is likely to 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Storm damage does not wait for business hours. We get the opening closed, photograph it for your insurance, and put the real fix on the schedule.
Coatings for low slope and older metal roofs that are still sound but weathered. Washed down, refastened, primed at the rust, then coated.
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.
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.
The edge of a roof is where most trouble starts. New fascia, new soffit, wrapped or painted so it stays sound.
Careful footwork, matched materials, and flashing done the way it was done when the roof went on.
Repair or replace, we handle both, and we work from what the roof actually needs rather than from what an adjuster might approve.
After a storm we walk the roof, photograph everything we find, and write an itemized estimate you can hand straight to your adjuster.
We work around your hours, weekends included when that is what it takes to keep your doors open while the roof goes on.
Small repairs get the same crew and the same care as a full roof. Free estimate, a price in writing, and the work done before the next rain moves in.
Old skylights leak at the flashing long before the glass ever fails. We reflash, reseal, or set a new unit and tie it in properly.
Where it makes sense we set low slope metal over a problem section so it finally drains instead of ponding after every rain.
Underlayment, ice and water shield in the valleys and along the eaves, sealed penetrations, and proper closures at the ridge.
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.
Steam and hand work, never a hammer and chisel on your roof. Then we check the eaves for the damage the ice already did.
Estimates are always free. That line has been on everything we have printed since 2002 and it still is. Somebody comes out to your Wadena home, gets on the roof, looks in the attic if there is a way in, and leaves you a written price.
No pressure and no price that expires if you do not sign that day. If your Wadena roof needs a repair rather than a replacement, we will tell you so, even though the repair is the smaller ticket.
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.
If your roof needs a repair and not a replacement, we say so. Plenty of our best customers are people we talked out of a job they did not need yet.
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.
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.
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 Wadena? Start here.
A typical Wadena 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.
Any dry stretch works. We roof in Wadena year round, though we schedule shingle work for when it is warm enough for the strips to seal properly, and we watch the forecast so your house is never left open overnight.
For most Wadena 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.
No. Estimates are always free in Wadena. We come out, measure, look in the attic if we can get to it, and leave you a written price. Nobody will push you to sign anything that day, and the number does not expire in an hour.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Wadena 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.
A metal roof installed properly on a Wadena 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 would rather let the work, and the people who paid for it, do the talking.
"Roofing Brothers do excellent work. They've completed several projects for me and every time the quality has been top notch. They're reliable and take pride in what they do. I highly recommend them!"
"They replaced the soffit and fascia the squirrels had chewed through and closed everything back up tight. No more scratching in the attic at night."
"Showed up when they said they would, both days. That alone puts them ahead of the last three contractors I hired."
We take care of homeowners in these neighboring communities as well.
