Minnesota Church — Standing Seam Metal Reroof

This one is a church, not a house — real work from the same crew that installs Silver Loon roofs, on a building well outside our Brainerd Lakes service area.

The roof is a steep, simple gable in a copper-orange standing seam finish, run the full length of the sanctuary. A brick gable dormer breaks up the field partway down, flashed tight where the smaller roof meets the main plane. A brick chimney chase rises through the field on the opposite end, wrapped in matching copper-toned metal. Galvanized ductwork crosses the flat section behind the sanctuary roof — the kind of mechanical work that has to get routed around, not through, a standing seam field.

These photos span two visits about three weeks apart, late November into December 2023 — a first pass finishing the main field, then a return trip for punch-list work. One shot catches a crew member tied off on the ridge near the steeple, checking a seam. A church roof this size does not get built in an afternoon, and the color holds the same rich copper-orange across every plane, which is not automatic on a job with this many transitions.
