Roofing Southgate homes the way we have since 2002 — measured on site, priced in writing, and finished the way we would want our own roof finished.
Pick a service to see how we handle it and what the job usually looks like on a Southgate roof.
Standing seam and metal panel roofs, measured and cut on site. We help you settle on a color, set the panels straight, and trim the ridge and valleys so the whole roof sheds water the way it should.
Reflective coatings keep a metal roof cooler in summer and seal up the small stuff before it turns into a leak.
An older roof deserves to keep its character. We repair rather than replace wherever the material still allows it.
A twenty year old panel roof usually needs fasteners and sealant, not replacement. We refasten with new washers and get you another long stretch out of it.
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.
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.
After a storm we walk the roof, photograph everything we find, and write an itemized estimate you can hand straight to your adjuster.
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.
Hail bruises shingles and dents the softer metal on vents, valleys and gutters. We show you what we find and document it properly for the claim.
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.
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.
The edge of a roof is where most trouble starts. New fascia, new soffit, wrapped or painted so it stays sound.
Low slope roofs fail at the joints and around anything that sticks through them. That is where we start, not out in the middle of the field.
From a few tabs to a whole slope, we fix shingle roofs without pushing you toward a replacement you are not ready for.
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.
Inspections come free with an estimate. We would rather find the small problem this spring than replace a ceiling for you next winter.
Metal, shingle and low slope work on buildings where a leak costs you more than a wet ceiling. Free estimates, same as anywhere else.
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.
Full tear off, decking checked board by board, then a new metal or shingle roof over proper underlayment. You get the price and the start date before anything comes off.
Ice backs up at a cold eave and pushes water sideways under the roof. We clear it without gouging the panels or the shingles.
We are a family roofing company with roots in Morganton, North Carolina going back to 2002. What began as metal roofs for neighbors turned into two decades of tin roofs, shingle roofs, repairs and church steeples, and Southgate homeowners now reach us through our network of local crews.
A city like Southgate has no shortage of roofers knocking on doors after a storm. We are not that. We come when you call, we look at what you actually have, and estimates are always free.
Nothing fancy — free estimates, honest answers, and roofs that go on straight.
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.
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.
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.
Common questions from Southgate, MI homeowners about metal roofs, repairs and what a roof costs.
A typical Southgate 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.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Southgate 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.
Often, yes. Plenty of the Southgate roofs we get called to look at need flashing reworked or a section refastened, not a whole new roof. We will tell you honestly which one you are looking at, and if it is repairable we would rather repair it.
That is most of what leak work is. Water runs along decking and rafters before it ever drips, so the stain on your Southgate ceiling is rarely under the actual hole. We work back to the real entry point, fix that, and check the rest of the roof while we are up there.
Much less than people expect. Over solid decking with underlayment under it, a Southgate 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 Southgate 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.
What people say once the crew has packed up and gone home.
"Straightforward from the first phone call. Free estimate, a clear price, no upselling, and the roof was finished in three days."
"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."
"Roof on our shop building. They worked Saturdays so we did not have to shut the doors during the week."
