The "cheaper" part, explained

How we charge less
without doing less

"Cheaper" should mean smart, not sketchy. We're affordable because of how we run the business — not because we skip steps, skimp on materials, or disappear after the deposit. Here's where the savings actually come from.

01

Lean and local

No flashy showroom, no bloated sales team, no out-of-state call center. Low overhead means a lower number on your estimate — and a real person who answers the phone.

02

We buy smart

Steady volume and established supplier relationships get us better pricing on quality shingles and materials. You get the same products the big companies install, minus their markup.

03

A crew that's already working

Our partner crew is deeply experienced and stays busy year-round, so we can schedule you fast and price tight without leaning on rush fees or padded labor.

What we do

Complete tear-off and re-roof with architectural asphalt or upgraded materials, built to handle Minnesota seasons.

Storm & hail damage

Fast response after a storm, plus help documenting damage for your insurance claim so you're not fighting it alone.

Know your roof before
you spend a dollar

A little knowledge goes a long way. Here's what to watch for, why Minnesota roofs work harder than most, and how the materials stack up.

Signs you may need work

  • Curling, cracked, or missing shingles
  • Granules collecting in your gutters
  • Water stains on ceilings or attic wood
  • Daylight showing through the roof deck
  • A roof that's 20+ years old

Built for Minnesota

  • Ice-and-water shield at the eaves to fight ice dams
  • Proper attic ventilation to cut winter moisture
  • Impact-rated shingles that stand up to hail
  • Wind-rated architectural asphalt shingles built for freeze-thaw

Material at a glance

  • Architectural asphalt — the value workhorse; great looks and 25–30 yr lifespan.
  • Impact-resistant asphalt — extra hail protection, often an insurance discount.
  • Metal — premium cost, 40+ yr lifespan, sheds snow well.
