i needed a few replacement shingles on my roof, and Wells Brothers Roofers was the right choice. no roofing repair job felt too small, and roof fixes really seem to be their specialty. brett gave me a very fair quote, then had the crew stop by to inspect the roof, match the shingles, and pick up the right materials for the repair. the work was finished in less than a week, which was great, especially with the warm Hickory weather and the need to keep the roof sealed up before any rain moved in. they also provided clear photos of the completed roof repair and an invoice that was helpful for the insurance claim process. one small concern came up during the job, but ian handled it quickly and made sure everything turned out well. i would gladly recommend them for shingle repair, leak work, and even full roof replacement if needed.

I contacted my insurance company for help with my roof after rain and wind caused damage. They sent wells brothers roofers to inspect it, and i was clearly told what repairs were needed. At first, i thought the whole roof would need to be replaced, but it turned out that only certain areas needed repair, which saved me money and avoided unnecessary work. brett explained the scope of the roofing repairs in a careful and easy-to-understand way, including what materials and labor would be involved. The price was very reasonable for the amount of work that had to be done, so i felt comfortable moving forward with the project. The crew arrived on time, worked efficiently, and completed the job with real professionalism and solid workmanship. The repaired shingles and other problem areas now look as good as new, and the roof has a clean, finished look again. I was very pleased to learn that a full roof replacement was not needed and that the repairs were enough to restore everything properly. If you need roof repair work after storm damage, i would definitely recommend speaking with them because the whole experience was smooth, honest, and satisfying.

Do not hesitate to hire Wells Brothers Roofers. We first reached out about a leaking skylight, and Brett inspected the roof, sealed a small problem area, and gave us a smart long-term roofing recommendation. Since we had just bought the …

Brett and his crew are top notch. I compared several roofing contractors and I’m very glad we chose this one. What helped me decide was the skilled team, strong warranty, quality roofing materials, and the convenience of getting everything handled by one roofing company. They replaced the main roof, the shed roof, updated the chimney materials, and installed new gutter guards. The finished roof system looks excellent and really improved the appearance of both the house and the shed. The crew was professional, organized, and easy to work with throughout the whole project. They cleaned up carefully at the end of each day, which made the job site feel safe and well managed. They also explained the process clearly and made sure every part of the roofing work was completed the right way. I would highly recommend them for roofing services in Hickory.

we got a few estimates for a full shingle roof replacement on our home, and wells brothers roofers stood out right away for their clear process and honest answers during the onsite visit. as longtime business owners ourselves, we really value straight talk, reliability, and doing exactly what is promised in the quote, and that is exactly what we received. we had been meaning to leave this review for a while after the roof was finished. the crew, especially ian and brett, were true roofing pros who clearly understood the right methods, materials, and installation steps needed for a high-quality roofing job. the finished roof looks excellent, well-built, and done the right way from start to finish. just as important to us as the roof quality was how carefully the crew worked around our property. they protected our landscaping and did not damage any bushes, flowers, plants, or yard decorations during the project. we highly recommend them for anyone needing shingle roofing work done with skill, care, and professionalism.

Every project on my home’s roof and gutter system has been handled by a trusted roofing crew. They put on a new roof, gutters, and downspouts many years ago, and everything still looks great and performs like it should. Since then, I’ve …

I got three estimates from reputable roofing contractors, and this crew stood out because I had seen several of their roof replacements nearby and the workmanship looked solid. Their proposal included metal valley flashing, which another quote left out, and that was important to me since I had dealt with a roof leak before from poor valley protection. They explained everything clearly, used quality roofing materials, and the price was very fair, even compared with another company that planned to use lower grade products. The estimate also allowed for a small amount of extra plywood, but when it was not needed, they were honest about it and did not try to add charges or push unnecessary work. The roofing team worked efficiently, kept the job moving, and finished almost the entire project in a single day. The new roof looks great, the shingle lines are clean, and the overall craftsmanship is easy to see. I am very happy with the whole experience and would recommend them to anyone needing dependable roofing work.

When heavy rain started hitting our home in Hickory, we found a big roof leak and water was coming inside. A friend put us in touch with Ian, and within about 30 minutes he and his roofing crew arrived. Even with the bad weather, they worked between rain bands, found the source of the leak, and made a solid roof repair right away. They explained what was happening, used good materials, and handled the job with real skill and care. Their fast response kept our home dry through the rest of the storm and likely saved us from major interior water damage and costly repairs. The leak is fully fixed, and we are extremely happy with the roofing service. We highly recommend them for emergency roof repair and dependable roofing work.

After storm damage, they replaced my roof and gutters and made the whole roofing job much easier than I expected. Brett was very kind and easy to work with, and Ian became my main contact throughout the project. There was a lot of back-and-forth with the insurance claim, which can be stressful, but Ian stayed on top of everything, answered texts quickly, and kept the process moving. Even the insurance adjuster spoke highly of how well everything was handled. The crew worked fast, the new roof looks great, and the gutter replacement turned out very well. They also addressed a few small follow-up items and made sure things were taken care of, which showed strong customer service. I had never gone through a full roof replacement before, so I appreciated how they explained the steps, materials, and timing. Overall, I would recommend them for roof replacement, gutters, and related exterior repair work in Hickory.

I can’t say enough good things about this roofing company and Ian. The roof repair and storm damage work was better than what I had dealt with before, and the price was much lower, which made it a real win-win. From the photos, you can see there was major water damage that affected the ceiling, interior walls, and some electrical areas, but the crew handled everything in a careful, step-by-step way. They went the extra mile by cleaning up moisture damage, replacing weak framing, improving insulation, and making sure the roofing system above it was solid so the problem would not come back. That extra care saved me time and money down the road. The finished interior work and flooring looked great too, and it still cost thousands less than larger contractors. Brett personally supervised each part of the project, which gave the whole experience a close, local feel here in Hickory.

After dealing with small roof leaks for a long time, I finally decided it was time for a full roof replacement. I got three estimates, and Wells Brothers Roofers stood out right away. Ian gave a very fair price and took plenty of time to explain what was likely causing the leaks, the different shingle options, and how ice and water shield would help protect the roof system. We also talked about the chance that some roof decking plywood might need to be replaced because of poor attic ventilation. Ian helped me sort through the best edge vent option for my lower-pitch 3/12 roof and even checked with the shingle manufacturer to make sure the plan would work properly. He also worked with me on the best way to seal the custom fascia metal along the highest roof edge so everything would be finished the right way. The whole process felt thorough and professional from start to finish. The new roof looks excellent, the workmanship is solid, and I am very pleased with the result. They were responsive, knowledgeable, easy to work with, and clearly very experienced with roofing.

we recently had roofing work done that included new shingles, a new skylight, and major roof repairs. we were very happy with the quality of the workmanship, the fast and efficient roofing crew, and the thorough cleanup after the job. even though we were not home when the project was finished, the team handled everything professionally and made sure the work was completed the right way. when we had a question about the skylight, brett quickly responded and sent the crew back out promptly to make sure every detail matched what we wanted. we also had an issue with squirrels bothering the new shingles soon after installation, and the team returned to repair the damaged shingles and add protective deterrents to help keep them away. since then, everything has looked great and the roof is back in top shape. we really appreciate the care, follow-up, and final results. we are very glad we chose this roofing company and would highly recommend them to anyone needing roof installation, shingle replacement, skylight work, or roof repairs done to a high standard. our family has also used them for roofing services and has been very satisfied. 5+ stars.

I wholeheartedly recommend Wells Brothers Roofers for any roofing job. From the first estimate to the final cleanup, Brett was professional, courteous, and easy to work with. I compared several roofing quotes, and while this one was not the lowest or the highest, it gave me the most confidence because the advice was clear, honest, and practical. Before the roof work started, Brett made sure the material delivery was placed in the best spot for a smooth install. The crew arrived right on time and carefully protected our two-and-a-half-story stucco home by tarping the sides and covering the landscaping. They got to work right away removing the old shingles and preparing the roof deck. The whole roofing crew worked like a well-organized team. One worker kept checking the yard and picking up debris as the tear-off moved along. Nearby homeowners even commented on how neat and well-managed the job site stayed throughout the day. After the old roofing material was cleared away, the crew used proper equipment to move the new shingles up efficiently and safely. The installation moved at a steady pace with skilled workmanship and close attention to detail. You could tell the roofers knew exactly what they were doing, from tear-off to shingle placement to job site protection. When the new roof was finished, they handled the cleanup just as carefully. All scraps, plastic, old material, and loose roofing debris were removed, and the area was blown clean and left spotless. By the end of the day, we had a beautiful new roof and a very clean property.

I had been dealing with a roof leak for quite a while, and a few roofers looked at it but could not find the problem. Then I was referred to Ian, and Brett came out to inspect the roof. Within just a few minutes, he located the issue. He was very professional, thorough, and took time to check several roofing areas to make sure he understood exactly what was causing the leak. He explained the whole repair process in simple terms, picked up the needed materials, and returned quickly to fix it the same day. I really appreciated the fast service, clear communication, and careful roof repair work. I would highly recommend this roofing company.
