We provide complimentary estimates for all our services, allowing you to make informed decisions about your home improvement projects without any initial cost. We perform and recommend a full tear-off for reroofs. Removing all existing shingles lets us inspect the deck for rot or soft spots, replace damaged sheathing, and install the roofing system correctly—ice & water barrier at eaves/valleys, synthetic underlayment, new drip edge, starter/ridge caps, and properly integrated flashing. A tear-off also allows us to improve attic ventilation (intake/exhaust) to prevent heat and moisture buildup, helps meet current code and manufacturer specifications, and protects your manufacturer warranty eligibility. It avoids common overlay issues like added weight on the structure, trapped moisture, “telegraphing” of old shingle defects, and shorter service life. We include disposal of old materials, magnet nail sweeps, and photo documentation of decking repairs in our process. We only consider a layover when local code allows it, the roof has one existing layer that’s flat, dry, and well-adhered, and there are no ventilation, flashing, or decking concerns. If you choose that route, we’ll review the tradeoffs—reduced lifespan, limited warranty options, and the risk that hidden decking problems go unaddressed—and get your written approval before proceeding. We spell out exactly how valleys and penetrations are built on your proposal and diagram, then install them to code and manufacturer specs for full warranty coverage. Valleys Penetrations Materials & sealants Quality control & documentation Bottom line: valleys and penetrations are your roof’s highest-risk areas—we overbuild them with the right materials, methods, and documentation so they stay dry for the long haul. Most single-family tear-offs are completed in 1–3 working days. Duration depends on roof size/complexity, the number of layers, decking repairs, weather, and access. Typical crew & schedule What can extend the timeline Communication & work hours Larger or special projects Bottom line: we size the crew to your project, keep you updated daily, and won’t leave until the roof is watertight and the property is clean. Brothers Roofing and Construction strives to schedule an on-site estimate within 48 hours of your request, ensuring a prompt response to your roofing needs. We treat your home like a jobsite and a home. Before work begins, we walk the property with you to note vulnerable areas and create a written protection plan. We flag and cover landscaping, gardens, and decorations; wrap AC units and pool equipment; and notify adjacent neighbors if any access could affect them. We install catch-all nets or tarps, plus plywood shields over siding, doors, windows, and patios. Driveway protection (mats/plywood) goes under dumpsters, material loads, and delivery routes to prevent tire marks or cracks. Gutters are protected and cleared daily; satellites and low-voltage lines are identified and temporarily repositioned if needed. Inside, we offer attic dust covers where decking repairs are planned and ask you to secure fragile items from vibration. During production, we stage materials to keep walkways clear, keep sections “dried-in” as weather changes, and pause if wind or lightning risk debris movement. Our crew performs rolling cleanup throughout the day, with magnetic nail sweeps each afternoon and a full perimeter sweep at completion. Any special concerns (pets, irrigation schedules, access times, gate/garage codes) are built into the plan. We photo-document protection set-up, any pre-existing conditions, and final cleanup. If an inspector or you flag anything, we address it promptly—and if something within our control is damaged, we repair or replace it at our expense. You’ll receive a short punch-list report and photos at the end so you know the property was left clean and protected. Safety and a watertight home come first. We only remove what we can dry-in the same day, and we don’t start a tear-off if the forecast shows a meaningful risk window. Our office and crew leads monitor live radar and hourly forecasts throughout the day; if weather shifts, we adjust the plan immediately. How we stay dry and safe If a storm pops up Scheduling & communication What we won’t do Bottom line: we plan for weather before we start, monitor continuously, and keep your home watertight—pausing or rescheduling when conditions don’t meet our safety and quality standards. Our expertise extends beyond roofing. As general contractors, we offer a comprehensive range of services including siding installation and repair, window and door replacement, porch and patio construction, deck building, and chimney repair. We install a layered system of underlayments designed to match code, climate, and manufacturer requirements: All underlayments are installed to meet or exceed local building code and manufacturer guidelines, ensuring full warranty coverage and long-term leak protection. We document the installation with photos so you can see how each layer was applied before shingles are installed. We handle the entire permitting and inspection process for you. Our team applies for the required city or township permits, coordinates any plan reviews, and posts the permit onsite before work begins. We schedule all inspections (pre-construction, in-progress, and final) directly with the municipality and meet the inspector as needed. All standard permit and inspection fees are included in your estimate unless unusual site conditions or design changes trigger additional fees—if that happens, we’ll discuss and approve them with you first. We’ll also advise you on any homeowner responsibilities (e.g., HOA approvals, property access on inspection days) and keep you updated on timelines. If an inspector requests a correction, we address it promptly at no added cost for items within our scope, and we’ll confirm final approval in writing for your records. You’ll have a clear point of contact and a steady rhythm of updates from start to finish. Who’s on site Communication plan How to reach us Expectations & access Documentation Bottom line: a named foreman on site, proactive daily updates, fast responses when you reach out, and clear documentation every step of the way. In almost all cases, we replace flashing during a reroof to ensure a watertight system and preserve manufacturer warranty coverage. What we replace Materials & methods When reuse is considered (rare) Documentation & quality control Bottom line: new, properly integrated flashing is the backbone of a leak-free roof. We replace it as standard practice and only reuse in exceptional, documented cases.
