Standing seam and metal panel roofing, roof repair and full replacement in Detroit Lakes. We show up when we say we will, and we clean up before we go.
Everything we do on a roof, done by crews who have been doing it the same careful way since 2002.
If two other people have caulked it and it still leaks, call us. Most stubborn leaks turn out to be flashing, a valley, or a fastener nobody thought to check.
Removing the ice is the easy half. We also look at ventilation and insulation so it stops happening every January.
Backed out screws, split washers, rust starting at a seam, a panel lifted at the eave. These are our roofs, and most of the time a repair is all it takes.
Hail bruises shingles and dents the softer metal on vents, valleys and gutters. We show you what we find and document it properly for the claim.
Standing seam and metal panel roofs, measured and cut on site. We help you settle on a color, set the panels straight, and trim the ridge and valleys so the whole roof sheds water the way it should.
Coatings for low slope and older metal roofs that are still sound but weathered. Washed down, refastened, primed at the rust, then coated.
If wind got under your roof once it will try again. We fix the damage and close the edge back up so there is nothing left to catch.
Where it makes sense we set low slope metal over a problem section so it finally drains instead of ponding after every rain.
We repair what the storm actually broke. If that is one slope, we do one slope, and we will not pad an estimate to make a claim look bigger.
Metal, shingle and low slope work on buildings where a leak costs you more than a wet ceiling. Free estimates, same as anywhere else.
An older roof deserves to keep its character. We repair rather than replace wherever the material still allows it.
Rotted fascia and sagging soffit let water and animals in behind the roof edge. We cut the bad wood out and put new in.
Storm damage does not wait for business hours. We get the opening closed, photograph it for your insurance, and put the real fix on the schedule.
Small repairs get the same crew and the same care as a full roof. Free estimate, a price in writing, and the work done before the next rain moves in.
New skylights set into metal or shingle roofs, with the flashing kit the roof actually calls for rather than a tube of sealant.
Inspections come free with an estimate. We would rather find the small problem this spring than replace a ceiling for you next winter.
We match the guard to your trees and your gutter profile, and make sure water can still get in where it is supposed to.
A replacement is a big spend and it should feel orderly. We schedule around dry weather, work in the right order, and never leave a house open overnight.
Waterproofing details on additions, porches and low slope tie ins, where two roofs meet and most leaks quietly begin.
A shingle repair should not be visible from the street. We match as close as the weathering allows and blend the new work into the old.
A metal roof is the thing we do best. Our family has been installing them out of Morganton, North Carolina since 2002, and our crews bring that same work to Detroit Lakes: standing seam, exposed fastener panels, and ridge and valley trim that fits instead of being forced.
Shingles still make sense on a lot of Detroit Lakes houses, and we will say so when they do. What we will not do is talk you into metal when your budget or your roof does not call for it. Estimates are free either way.
Why people around Detroit Lakes call us back and send their neighbors our way.
The same family started this company putting metal roofs on neighbors houses in 2002. It has never been sold, franchised or handed off to a call center.
A few backed out screws or a whole roof off a church — we take both. No job is too small to get the same crew and the same care.
You get a start date and we hold to it. If weather moves your job we call you, rather than leaving you watching the driveway.
Around twenty standard metal colors, and the chart comes out with the estimate so you can hold it up against your siding and shutters before you commit.
Somebody comes out, measures, gets on the roof, and leaves you a written price. No charge, no obligation, and no number that expires if you do not sign today.
Straight answers to what Detroit Lakes homeowners ask us most often.
No. Estimates are always free in Detroit Lakes. We come out, measure, look in the attic if we can get to it, and leave you a written price. Nobody will push you to sign anything that day, and the number does not expire in an hour.
A metal roof installed properly on a Detroit Lakes home should give you 40 to 60 years, and standing seam often goes longer because there are no exposed fasteners. Screws and sealants on a panel roof want attention around year 20, which is a small job next to a re-roof.
A typical Detroit Lakes shingle roof runs roughly $8,000 to $18,000 in 2026 for an average single family home, and more if the deck has rot or the roof is steep and cut up with dormers. We do not price off a satellite photo — somebody comes out and measures.
For most Detroit Lakes homes, yes. A metal roof costs more up front than shingles, but it usually outlives two or three shingle roofs, sheds rain and snow better, and does not peel off in a hard wind. We will price metal and shingle side by side so you can compare real numbers instead of guessing.
Often, yes. Plenty of the Detroit Lakes roofs we get called to look at need flashing reworked or a section refastened, not a whole new roof. We will tell you honestly which one you are looking at, and if it is repairable we would rather repair it.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Detroit Lakes metal roof can go over the top on purlins. If there is rot underneath or two layers already on, we tear off first — and we will tell you that before you sign, not halfway through.
