Dependable roof leak repair for Eckert homeowners from Roofing Brothers — measured on site, done on schedule, and cleaned up after.
If your Eckert roof has been caulked twice and still leaks, the caulk was never the answer. Most of the stubborn ones come down to flashing at a chimney or wall, a valley that was never lapped right, or fasteners that have backed out.
Roofing Brothers has been doing roof leak repair since 2002, first around Morganton, North Carolina and now for Eckert 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 roof leak repair starts in Eckert 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.
We look at the stain, the attic and the framing above it, because the path the water took tells us far more than the ceiling does.
If it is not obvious we test with water rather than guessing and charging you for a repair that fixes nothing.
Materials get matched as close as we can so the repair blends into the roof around it.
While we are up there we look over the whole roof, because one old enough to leak in one place usually has a second one starting.
Questions homeowners ask us about this kind of work.
Because water travels. It runs along decking and rafters before it drips, so the stain on a Eckert ceiling is rarely under the actual hole. We work backward from the stain to the real entry point.
We can usually get a Eckert roof covered and stop the water in the middle of weather, but the permanent repair waits for a dry stretch. Sealing something wet just means doing it twice.
Flashing, nearly always. Chimneys, wall tie ins, valleys, pipe boots and skylights account for most of the leaks we chase on Eckert homes. The open field of a roof is rarely the problem.
Yes, and it is included. A Eckert roof old enough to leak in one place usually has a second one starting, and we would rather show you the photographs now than come back in six months.
What people said once the job was finished and the trucks were gone.
"Nice work on the roof and good communication throughout. I would have liked a little more warning about the dumpster arriving, but that is a small thing."
"Green metal over the whole house and the carport. Looks sharp, and it is quiet inside when it rains, which honestly surprised me."
"Ice was backing up at our eaves every winter. They cleared it, then went back and fixed the ventilation, and we have not had the problem since."
