We Actually Get On Your Roof
Is it time to replace your roof?
A roof replacement is one of the largest investments you’ll make in your home. You need a contractor you can trust: one who shows up, communicates clearly, uses materials built for Minnesota weather, and backs their work with a real warranty.
Minnesota’s freeze-thaw cycles, summer hailstorms, and heavy snow loads age roofs faster than milder climates.
Signs your roof needs replacement:
Shingles curling, cupping, or losing granules into gutters
Repeated leaks even after prior repairs
Missing shingles after hail or windstorms
Roof is 20–25+ years old — typical MN asphalt lifespan
Ice dams forming every winter causing water intrusion
Visible daylight in attic or sagging roof deck
Certified Installers
Certified Roofing You Can Trust

Not Every Shingle Problem Needs a Full Replacement
If your shingles are otherwise in good shape, a targeted repair can add years of life for a fraction of the cost of a new roof. Here’s when repair is usually the right call:
Wind-Lifted or Missing Shingles
A handful of shingles torn loose or blown off after a windstorm, with the rest of the roof intact.
Flashing & Chimney Leaks
Deteriorated flashing around chimneys, vents, and skylights is a common, fixable leak source.
Isolated Leaks
A single problem area rather than roof-wide failure — patched and sealed, not torn off.
Storm Damage Patches
Hail or wind damage limited to one roof plane usually doesn’t call for a full tear-off.

Pricing
What Affects the Cost of a Roof Replacement in Minnesota?
Every roof is different, so every price is too. Here’s what shapes your estimate:
Roof Size & Complexity
Square footage, pitch, valleys, and dormers all affect labor time and material needs.
Material Tier & Brand
Architectural and premium designer shingles carry different price points, and the same goes for metal or flat-roof systems if asphalt isn’t the right fit for your home.
Tear-Off & Decking
The number of existing layers and any rotted or damaged decking found underneath add to the scope.
Permits & Code
MN building code, local permit fees, and ice-and-water-shield requirements are built into every quote.
