What really sets us apart is that you work directly with the owner from start to finish. No sales teams, no project coordinators you’ve never met, no wondering who’s actually responsible for your roof.

Roof Installation Process

Here's How We Handle Your Project

First, we come out and assess your roof situation honestly. No high-pressure sales tactics or inflated damage claims. Just a straightforward evaluation of what needs to happen and why.

Next, we walk you through material options and explain the differences that actually matter for Minnesota weather. We’ll show you samples, discuss warranties, and help you understand what you’re investing in before any work begins.

During installation, you’ll get regular updates directly from the owner. We protect your property, clean up daily, and handle your roof like it’s our own. When we’re finished, we do a final walkthrough together so you know exactly what was done and how to maintain your investment.

Complete Roofing Solutions

Everything Your Roof Needs

We handle new roof installations, complete tear-offs, and roof replacements using materials designed for Minnesota’s climate. Our GAF and Owens Corning certifications mean you get longer warranties and better protection than standard installations.

Storm damage is common in Elk River, and we know how to work with insurance companies to get claims handled properly. We document everything, provide detailed estimates, and help you navigate the process without the runaround.

Beyond just roofing, we coordinate gutters, siding, and windows if you’re planning a complete exterior renovation. One contractor, one timeline, one point of contact. It’s how exterior projects should work.

How long does a typical roof replacement take in Elk River?

Most residential roof replacements take 2-4 days depending on size, complexity, and weather conditions. We start early, work efficiently, and don’t stretch jobs out unnecessarily. Minnesota weather can be unpredictable, so we monitor forecasts closely and adjust schedules to avoid working in unsafe conditions. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you updated if anything changes. The key is proper planning and having experienced crews who know how to work safely and efficiently in our climate.

What roofing materials work best for Minnesota winters?

Architectural shingles from GAF or Owens Corning perform best in our climate. They’re designed to handle freeze-thaw cycles, ice dams, and heavy snow loads that destroy cheaper materials. We typically recommend impact-resistant shingles if you’re in a hail-prone area. Metal roofing is another excellent option for Minnesota – it sheds snow well and lasts decades. The underlayment and ventilation system matter just as much as the shingles themselves. We use ice and water shield in critical areas and ensure proper attic ventilation to prevent ice dam formation.

Do you work with insurance companies on storm damage claims?

Yes, we work with insurance companies regularly and know how to document damage properly for claims. We’ll meet with your adjuster, provide detailed estimates, and help you understand what’s covered. Insurance companies respect contractors who know what they’re doing and document everything correctly. We take photos, measurements, and provide line-item estimates that match insurance requirements. Our goal is to get your claim approved for the full scope of necessary work, not just quick fixes that’ll cause problems later.

What's included in your roofing warranties?

You get both manufacturer warranties on materials and our workmanship warranty on installation. As GAF and Owens Corning certified contractors, we can offer enhanced warranties that aren’t available through non-certified contractors. Material warranties typically cover 25-50 years depending on the product. Our workmanship warranty covers installation issues for several years. We also provide warranty documentation and maintain records so you’re covered if you ever need service. The key is using quality materials installed correctly – both matter for long-term performance.

How do you handle ice dam prevention during installation?

Ice dam prevention starts with proper installation techniques and materials. We install ice and water shield at least 6 feet up from the roof edge, ensure proper attic insulation and ventilation, and seal air leaks that cause heat buildup. Ventilation is critical – we calculate intake and exhaust requirements based on your specific roof and attic configuration. We also check for common problem areas like bathroom vents, recessed lights, and attic access points that contribute to ice dam formation. Prevention is much cheaper than dealing with water damage later.

Why should I choose a local roofer over a large national company?

Local contractors understand Minnesota-specific challenges and are accountable to the community long-term. We’re not disappearing after storm season or passing you off to different managers in other states. When you call, you talk to someone who knows your project and can make decisions immediately. We also understand local building codes, permit requirements, and work with local suppliers for faster material delivery. Large companies often use subcontractors anyway, so you’re getting local crews without local accountability. We’ve been serving this area since 2002 because we do right by our neighbors.
