What You Get When It's Done Right

Your roof stops being something you worry about. No more wondering if it’ll hold up through another Minnesota winter or if those shingles will start flying off in the next windstorm.

You get a roof built with certified materials from GAF or Owens Corning, installed by contractors who actually know what Minnesota weather throws at homes. That means enhanced warranties you can count on and materials designed to handle everything from ice dams to hail storms.

Most importantly, you work directly with the owner throughout your entire project. No getting passed around to different salespeople or project managers who don’t know your situation. One person who knows your roof, your concerns, and your timeline from start to finish.

Here's Exactly What Happens Next

First, we come out and actually look at your roof. Not just from the ground with binoculars, but a real inspection that tells you what’s wrong, what’s still good, and what needs attention now versus later.

Then we walk through your options. If you’re dealing with insurance, we handle that process and make sure you get what you’re entitled to. If you’re paying out of pocket, we show you exactly where your money goes and why.

Once we start work, the same person you talked to initially stays involved throughout the project. No surprises, no miscommunication between teams, no wondering who’s actually in charge of your roof. We handle permits, inspections, cleanup, and make sure everything meets both manufacturer specifications and local building codes.

Complete Roofing Solutions Gem Lake

More Than Just Shingle Replacement

Every roofing project includes a thorough inspection of your decking, ventilation, and gutters. We’re not just slapping new shingles over problems. If your decking has issues, we address them. If your ventilation isn’t adequate for Minnesota’s climate, we fix that too.

You also get our design consultation service if you want to see how different materials and colors will look on your actual home. Some homeowners know exactly what they want, others need help visualizing the finished project. Either way works.

Since we handle siding, windows, and gutters too, we can coordinate your entire exterior project if that’s what you’re planning. One contractor, one timeline, one person to call if anything comes up later.

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

Most residential roof replacements take 2-4 days depending on the size of your home and weather conditions. We start early and work efficiently, but we don’t rush through critical steps like proper flashing installation or ventilation setup. Minnesota weather can extend timelines, especially during winter months, but we’ll give you realistic expectations upfront and keep you updated if conditions change. We also make sure your home is properly protected each night if the project spans multiple days.

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 dam formation, and high winds that are common here. We typically recommend impact-resistant shingles if you’re in an area that sees hail. Metal roofing is another excellent option for Minnesota – it sheds snow well and lasts longer, though the upfront cost is higher. The key is proper installation with adequate ventilation and ice dam protection, regardless of which material you choose.

Do you work with insurance companies for storm damage claims?

Yes, we handle insurance work regularly and know how to navigate the claims process. We’ll meet with your adjuster, provide detailed documentation of damage, and make sure you get a fair settlement that covers proper repairs. We don’t inflate estimates, but we also don’t let insurance companies shortchange you on necessary work. If there’s damage to decking, gutters, or other components that isn’t immediately obvious, we document everything properly so your claim covers the full scope of needed repairs.

What kind of warranty do you provide on roofing work?

Our GAF and Owens Corning certifications allow us to offer enhanced manufacturer warranties that go beyond standard material coverage. Depending on the products you choose, you can get warranties ranging from 25 years to lifetime coverage on materials. We also provide our own workmanship warranty that covers installation issues. The specific terms depend on your project scope and materials selected, but we’ll explain exactly what’s covered before you sign anything. Having certified status means we can offer warranty protection that non-certified contractors simply can’t provide.

Can you handle other exterior work besides roofing?

Absolutely. We’re a complete exterior contractor handling siding, windows, gutters, insulation, and related carpentry work. Many of our clients prefer working with one contractor for their entire exterior renovation rather than coordinating multiple companies. We can sequence the work properly – for example, doing roofing and siding together makes sense from both a cost and logistics standpoint. If you’re planning multiple exterior projects, we can give you a comprehensive timeline and often provide better overall pricing than hiring separate contractors for each component.

How do you handle permits and inspections for roofing projects?

We handle all permit applications and coordinate required inspections with local building departments. This includes initial permits, any mid-project inspections if required, and final approval. We know Gem Lake’s specific requirements and maintain good relationships with local inspectors, which helps keep projects moving smoothly. You don’t need to worry about paperwork or scheduling – we take care of all administrative aspects and make sure everything meets both local codes and manufacturer specifications for warranty compliance.
