What You Get With Us

Your roof protects everything you care about. When it’s done right, you stop worrying about leaks, ice dams, and whether your contractor will actually show up when problems arise.

You get enhanced warranties through our GAF and Owens Corning certifications. These aren’t just pieces of paper – they’re your protection when Minnesota weather tests your roof.

Most importantly, you work directly with the owner throughout your entire project. No getting passed around between salespeople and project managers. No wondering who’s actually responsible when you have questions. Just straight communication with someone who’s been doing this for over 20 years and has skin in the game.

Leighton Roofing Contractor Since 2002

We've Been Here Since 2002

The Construction Group Inc. has been protecting homes in Leighton and surrounding Minnesota communities for over two decades. We maintain an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau and have earned multiple Super Service Awards from Angie’s List.

We’re certified with GAF and Owens Corning as preferred contractors. These certifications matter because they allow us to offer you enhanced warranties that most roofers simply can’t provide.

What makes us different is simple: you work directly with the owner on every project. While larger companies shuffle you between departments, you get personalized attention from someone who’s accountable for the results.

Roof Installation Process Leighton

Here's How We Handle Your Project

First, we meet at your home to assess your roof and discuss your needs. No high-pressure sales tactics – just an honest evaluation of what you’re dealing with and what options make sense for your situation and budget.

If you’re having trouble visualizing the final result, we can connect you with our design services to create a clear picture of your new roof. This step eliminates surprises and ensures you’re completely comfortable with the plan before we start.

Once you’re ready to move forward, we handle all permits and scheduling. During installation, you work directly with the owner, not a series of project managers. We keep you informed throughout the process and address any concerns immediately. After completion, we walk through everything with you and ensure you understand your new warranties.

Full-Service Roofing and More

Minnesota’s climate is tough on roofs. Heavy snow loads, ice dams, and dramatic temperature swings require specific materials and installation techniques. We understand these challenges and select materials that perform well in our climate.

Our GAF and Owens Corning certifications give you access to enhanced warranties that provide better protection for your investment. We also offer design services to help you visualize your project before construction begins, ensuring the final result matches your expectations.

How long does a typical roof replacement take in Leighton?

Most residential roof replacements take 1-3 days, depending on the size of your home and weather conditions. We start early and work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine. Weather delays are common in Minnesota, especially during winter months, but we communicate any schedule changes immediately. We also protect your home with tarps if weather interrupts the project partway through. Our goal is to get your home weather-tight as quickly as possible while maintaining quality standards.

What roofing materials work best for Minnesota weather?

Asphalt shingles are the most popular choice for Minnesota homes because they handle temperature fluctuations well and offer good value. We typically recommend architectural shingles over basic 3-tab shingles for better wind resistance and longer life. Metal roofing is excellent for shedding snow and ice but costs more upfront. The key is proper installation – even the best materials fail if they’re not installed correctly for our climate. We use ice and water shield in critical areas and ensure proper ventilation to prevent ice dam formation.

Do you handle insurance claims for storm damage?

Yes, we work with insurance companies regularly for storm damage claims. We can meet with your adjuster to ensure all damage is properly documented and help you understand what your policy covers. Many homeowners don’t realize their insurance covers more than just the obvious damage – things like gutters, siding, and even landscaping may be included. We provide detailed estimates that match insurance requirements and can often work within your deductible limits. The key is acting quickly after storm damage to prevent further issues like water infiltration.

What warranties do you offer on roofing work?

We provide manufacturer warranties on materials plus our own workmanship warranty. Because we’re certified with GAF and Owens Corning, we can offer enhanced warranties that aren’t available through non-certified contractors. These enhanced warranties typically cover both materials and labor for extended periods. The specific warranty depends on the products you choose and can range from 25 years to lifetime coverage. We explain all warranty options during your estimate and help you understand exactly what’s covered and for how long.

Can you help with ice dam problems?

Ice dams are a common Minnesota problem, and we handle both prevention and repairs. Proper attic insulation and ventilation are the long-term solutions – they keep your roof temperature consistent and prevent the freeze-thaw cycle that creates ice dams. For immediate problems, we can safely remove ice dams and repair any damage they’ve caused. We also install ice and water shield during roof replacements to provide extra protection in vulnerable areas. Many ice dam problems stem from inadequate insulation or ventilation, which we can address as part of a comprehensive solution.

How do I know if I need roof repair or full replacement?

Age is the biggest factor – most asphalt shingle roofs need replacement after 20-25 years in Minnesota’s climate. However, we look at the overall condition, not just age. Multiple leaks, widespread granule loss, curling or missing shingles, and damaged flashing often indicate replacement is more cost-effective than repairs. Sometimes what looks like a major problem is actually a simple fix. We provide honest assessments and explain your options clearly. If repairs will buy you several more years, we’ll tell you. If you’re throwing good money after bad, we’ll explain why replacement makes more sense.
