A family roofing company serving Boyds and the rest of Maryland through our network of local crews. Tin roofs, repairs and replacements done right.
Pick a service to see how we handle it and what the job usually looks like on a Boyds roof.
New skylights set into metal or shingle roofs, with the flashing kit the roof actually calls for rather than a tube of sealant.
Most roofs somebody has called a lost cause are not one. We repair what can be repaired, and we tell you honestly when a repair will no longer hold.
We match the guard to your trees and your gutter profile, and make sure water can still get in where it is supposed to.
Coatings for low slope and older metal roofs that are still sound but weathered. Washed down, refastened, primed at the rust, then coated.
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.
Repair or replace, we handle both, and we work from what the roof actually needs rather than from what an adjuster might approve.
We repair what the storm actually broke. If that is one slope, we do one slope, and we will not pad an estimate to make a claim look bigger.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
A careful walk over the whole roof — panels, shingles, valleys, flashing, fasteners — plus the attic side when there is a way in. You get photos and a straight answer.
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.
Churches, shops, barns and small commercial buildings. We have roofed everything from a wood shed to a steeple.
Ice backs up at a cold eave and pushes water sideways under the roof. We clear it without gouging the panels or the shingles.
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.
The edge of a roof is where most trouble starts. New fascia, new soffit, wrapped or painted so it stays sound.
Slate and tile take patience and matching pieces. We replace broken and slipped units and rework the flashing they hide.
Underlayment, ice and water shield in the valleys and along the eaves, sealed penetrations, and proper closures at the ridge.
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 Boyds homeowners now reach us through our network of local crews.
A city like Boyds 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.
Beds get covered, tear off gets hauled as we go, and a magnet goes over the drive before we pull out. Your yard should look like we were never there.
Somebody comes out, measures, gets on the roof, and leaves you a written price. No charge, no obligation, and no number that expires if you do not sign today.
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.
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.
Common questions from Boyds, MD homeowners about metal roofs, repairs and what a roof costs.
For most Boyds 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.
Any dry stretch works. We roof in Boyds 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.
Often, yes. Plenty of the Boyds 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.
Much less than people expect. Over solid decking with underlayment under it, a Boyds 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 Boyds 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.
No. Estimates are always free in Boyds. 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.
We would rather let the work, and the people who paid for it, do the talking.
