Straight answers and careful work on metal roof installation in Rochester, MA. Metal roofing is our specialty, but we do the whole roof.
Most Rochester 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 Rochester 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 Rochester 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.
Nothing gets ordered until you have a written price in hand and have settled on the color you actually want.
If the shingles are coming off, they come off, and every board underneath gets checked before anything new goes down.
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.
Then the yard gets picked up, the scrap gets hauled off, and a magnet goes over the drive before we pull out.
Questions homeowners ask us about this kind of work.
Around twenty standard colors. Green, burgundy, bronze, black, gray, tan and barn red are the ones most Rochester homeowners land on. We bring the chart with the estimate so you can hold it against your siding.
Most Rochester metal roof jobs land between about $12,000 and $30,000 in 2026, depending on square footage, pitch, panel type and how much tear off is involved. Standing seam runs higher than exposed fastener panels. We measure before we quote and the estimate is free.
Installed properly over sound decking, a metal roof should give a Rochester home 40 to 60 years. Standing seam often goes longer because there are no exposed fasteners to work loose or leak.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Rochester 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.
