What roofs face in Minnesota
- Snow & ice dams
- Hail
- High wind & severe storms
Ice dams
Long cold spells with snow on the roof make ice dams common, especially on 1.5-story homes and older houses with little insulation. Air sealing and insulation are the lasting fix.
Twin Cities hail
Summer hailstorms frequently cross Minneapolis, Saint Paul and their suburbs. Impact-resistant shingles and prompt inspections are worthwhile.
Short installation window
Most re-roofing happens from spring to fall, when shingles can seal properly.
1.5-story homes
Twin Cities neighborhoods have many 1.5-story homes with finished upper rooms tucked under the roof. Those knee walls and sloped ceilings leak heat into the roof deck, which is why ice dams are so common on them. Air sealing and insulation are the lasting fix.
Licensing, permits and contracts in Minnesota
Minnesota requires residential roofers to be licensed by the Department of Labor and Industry, and state law prohibits contractors from offering to pay or rebate an insurance deductible. Permits come from the local building official.
