What You Get With Us

Your roof stops being a source of stress. No more wondering if it’ll hold up through another Minnesota winter or worrying about leaks during spring storms.

You get a roofing system designed specifically for our climate – materials that handle heavy snow loads, ice dams, and temperature swings that would destroy cheaper alternatives. Your energy bills drop because proper insulation and ventilation actually work.

Most importantly, you’re done dealing with roofing problems for decades. When you invest in quality roofing installation or roof replacement, you’re buying peace of mind that extends far beyond the warranty period.

Roofing Contractor Forest Lake

We've Been Here Since 2002

We’ve handled Forest Lake roofing projects for over two decades. We’re GAF certified and Owens Corning preferred contractors, which means enhanced warranties for you.

Our A+ Better Business Bureau rating isn’t something we earned once – we’ve maintained it throughout our entire time in business. Multiple Super Service Awards from Angie’s List back that up.

Here’s what makes us different: you work directly with the owner throughout your entire project. No getting passed between salespeople or project managers who don’t know your situation.

Roof Installation Process

Here's How We Handle Your Project

First, we assess your current roof and discuss what you actually need – not what generates the biggest sale. If you’re planning other exterior work, we coordinate everything so you’re not dealing with multiple contractors.

During installation, we protect your property and work efficiently to minimize disruption. Our crews understand Minnesota weather patterns, so we plan around conditions that could compromise quality.

After completion, we walk through everything with you and explain your warranty coverage. You get documentation for insurance purposes and know exactly what’s covered if issues arise down the road.

Complete Roofing Solutions

Everything Your Roof System Needs

Roof repair, complete roof replacement, new roof installation – we handle whatever your situation requires. But we also take care of gutters, insulation, ventilation, and storm damage restoration.

If you’re considering siding, windows, or other exterior improvements, we coordinate the entire project. Our design services help you visualize the finished result before work begins.

Forest Lake homes face unique challenges from ice dams, wind damage, and heavy snow loads. We select materials and installation methods that address these specific issues rather than using generic approaches that fail in our climate.

How long does a typical roof replacement take in Forest Lake?

Most residential roof replacements take 1-3 days depending on size, complexity, and weather conditions. We schedule around Minnesota’s unpredictable weather patterns and won’t compromise quality to rush completion. If storms are forecast, we’ll delay start dates rather than risk water damage to your home. For larger homes or complex rooflines, expect closer to a week. We always provide realistic timelines upfront and keep you updated if conditions change our schedule.

What roofing materials work best for Minnesota winters?

Architectural shingles from GAF or Owens Corning perform exceptionally well in our climate. They’re designed to handle freeze-thaw cycles, ice dam formation, and heavy snow loads that destroy cheaper materials. Metal roofing is another excellent option, especially for homes prone to ice dams. We don’t recommend basic 3-tab shingles for Minnesota homes – they simply don’t last in our weather conditions. The key is proper installation with adequate ventilation and ice barrier protection, which we include as standard practice.

Do you handle insurance claims for storm damage?

Yes, we work with insurance companies regularly and understand the claims process. We provide detailed documentation of storm damage and work directly with adjusters to ensure you receive fair coverage. Our experience helps avoid common claim denials due to inadequate documentation or missed damage. We’ll meet with your adjuster, provide written estimates that match insurance requirements, and explain what’s covered versus what might be out-of-pocket. This eliminates most of the stress homeowners face when dealing with storm damage claims.

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

Age is the biggest factor – most Minnesota roofs need replacement after 15-20 years due to our harsh climate. Multiple leaks, widespread granule loss, or structural damage usually mean replacement makes more financial sense than ongoing repairs. We’ll give you an honest assessment of whether repairs will actually solve your problems or just delay inevitable replacement. Sometimes a few strategic repairs can extend your roof’s life by several years, but we won’t recommend patches when you need a permanent solution.

What warranties do you provide on roofing work?

Our GAF and Owens Corning certifications allow us to offer enhanced manufacturer warranties that standard contractors cannot provide. These cover both materials and workmanship for extended periods. We also provide our own workmanship warranty that covers installation issues. The specific warranty terms depend on materials chosen and scope of work, but we explain all coverage before you sign anything. Enhanced warranties are one of the main benefits of working with certified contractors rather than general handymen.

Can you coordinate roofing with other exterior home improvements?

Absolutely – this is one of our specialties. We handle siding, windows, gutters, insulation, and other exterior work, so you deal with one contractor instead of coordinating multiple companies. This approach saves time, reduces costs, and ensures everything works together properly. We also offer design services to help you visualize the complete exterior transformation before work begins. Many homeowners find it more convenient and cost-effective to complete their entire exterior renovation at once rather than piecemeal over several years.
