A family roofing company serving La Mesa and the rest of California 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 La Mesa roof.
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.
A replacement is a big spend and it should feel orderly. We schedule around dry weather, work in the right order, and never leave a house open overnight.
Coatings for low slope and older metal roofs that are still sound but weathered. Washed down, refastened, primed at the rust, then coated.
Guards and screens so you are not up a ladder every fall digging pine needles out of the gutter by hand.
Water runs along decking and rafters before it ever drips, so the stain is rarely under the hole. We trace the leak back to where it really starts and fix that.
Inspections come free with an estimate. We would rather find the small problem this spring than replace a ceiling for you next winter.
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.
Squirrels, wasps and water all treat a soft soffit as a front door. We close it up properly instead of patching over it.
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.
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 standing seam, exposed fastener panels and metal shingles, and we match the color as closely as the paint system will allow.
A skylight has to be woven into the roof, not caulked to it. That is the difference between a fix that lasts a season and one that holds.
After a storm we walk the roof, photograph everything we find, and write an itemized estimate you can hand straight to your adjuster.
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.
Temporary cover goes on fast, then we come back and make the permanent repair once we can see properly what we are working with.
Waterproofing details on additions, porches and low slope tie ins, where two roofs meet and most leaks quietly begin.
From a few tabs to a whole slope, we fix shingle roofs without pushing you toward a replacement you are not ready for.
Slate and tile take patience and matching pieces. We replace broken and slipped units and rework the flashing they hide.
We work around your hours, weekends included when that is what it takes to keep your doors open while the roof goes on.
Removing the ice is the easy half. We also look at ventilation and insulation so it stops happening every January.
Roofing Brothers has been a family business since 2002, when we started putting metal roofs on houses around Morganton, North Carolina. Two decades later the work has not changed much — good panels, straight lines, honest prices — and that is what our crews bring to homes across La Mesa.
With a population near 73,840, La Mesa has every kind of roof there is: brick ranches, log homes, additions with three different pitches tied together. We have worked on all of it, and we would rather tell you the truth about yours than sell you the biggest job on the sheet.
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.
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.
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.
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 La Mesa, CA homeowners about metal roofs, repairs and what a roof costs.
We do. After a storm we photograph the damage on your La Mesa roof and write an itemized estimate you can hand to your adjuster. We do not file the claim for you and we will not promise you what an adjuster is going to approve — that is their call, not ours.
No. Estimates are always free in La Mesa. 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.
Often, yes. Plenty of the La Mesa 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 La Mesa 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.
Most La Mesa metal roof jobs land somewhere between about $12,000 and $30,000 in 2026, depending on square footage, pitch, panel type and how much tear off there is. Standing seam runs higher than exposed fastener panels. We measure before we quote, and the estimate is free.
For most La Mesa 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.
We would rather let the work, and the people who paid for it, do the talking.
"Our church needed a new roof and the budget was tight. They worked with us on it, did beautiful work, and finished before the fall revival."

Great communication, pricing, color options, efficiency, and HONESTY! If anyone needs a new roof, I highly recommend this crew! Phenomenal job."
"Put a dark green metal roof on our house last spring and it still looks like the day they finished. Fair price, no surprises on the bill, and they hauled off every scrap."
