Crosby-based — one crew across the Cuyuna and Brainerd Lakes
Licensed Minnesota roofing contractor based in Crosby, on the Cuyuna Range. One crew works the Brainerd Lakes and the Whitefish Chain, from Baxter to Crosslake — same team, same standards, every job.
Line-item written estimates within 48 hours — plain language, no sales pressure, no surprises at the bill.
What we quote is what you pay. Every estimate is itemized, explained in plain language, and delivered before anyone touches your roof. No vague ballparks, no change-order ambushes at the end of the job.
Insurance claim assistance, start to finish
We've worked with every major carrier in Minnesota — State Farm, Farmers, Allstate, and regional co-ops. We document the damage, coordinate with the adjuster, and handle the paperwork.
MN-specific expertise built in
Ice dam prevention, attic ventilation for deep freeze-thaw cycles, hail-rated shingles, proper ice and water shield coverage — this isn't generic roofing advice retrofitted to Minnesota.
Fully insured crew on every job
Every crew member on your property carries workers' compensation and general liability insurance. If something goes wrong, you're not exposed.
For owners who aren't there
Your roof gets its own web page.
Most of our customers are two hours away when we're on their roof. So every job comes with its own page on our site — your name on the link, your whole project on the page. Check it from the office, the cabin, or the boat. No phone tag. No wondering what happened while you were gone.
Every photo, as we take it
Before, during, and after — added while the crew is still on your roof.
Your estimate and paperwork
The written estimate and every document for the job, in one place.
Materials, tracked
What we ordered for your roof, when it was delivered, and when it went on.

Customer Voices
What our customers say
Got an estimate on Tuesday, new roof by Thursday. Straight talk the whole way through. No upselling, just what the roof needed.
They caught three soft spots the first contractor missed. Saved me from a ceiling leak that would've cost twice as much to fix six months later.
Handled the insurance call, filed the paperwork, showed up when they said they would. That's all I needed.
