Metal roofs, shingle roofs and honest repairs for Borup, MN homeowners. Family owned since 2002, and estimates are always free.
Metal roofing is our specialty, but shingles, gutters, soffit and leak work all get the same attention in Borup.
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.
A limb through the roof or panels peeled back overnight needs covering now, not next week. We get it dried in first so the inside of the house stops taking damage.
One leak usually has company. We fix the one you called about and check over the rest of the roof while we are already up there.
An older roof deserves to keep its character. We repair rather than replace wherever the material still allows it.
When a roof is genuinely finished we replace it, and we say so plainly rather than dressing it up. Metal and shingle priced side by side so you can compare real numbers.
Guards installed as part of a roof job or on their own. Either way we check the hangers and the pitch while we are up there.
A coating buys real years on the right roof and wastes money on the wrong one. We will tell you honestly which kind you are looking at.
Repair or replace, we handle both, and we work from what the roof actually needs rather than from what an adjuster might approve.
This is the work our name is attached to. Two decades of tin roofs on houses, churches, barns and additions, installed by crews who cut the trim on site instead of forcing something that almost fits.
Removing the ice is the easy half. We also look at ventilation and insulation so it stops happening every January.
A twenty year old panel roof usually needs fasteners and sealant, not replacement. We refasten with new washers and get you another long stretch out of it.
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.
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.
Inspections come free with an estimate. We would rather find the small problem this spring than replace a ceiling for you next winter.
Old skylights leak at the flashing long before the glass ever fails. We reflash, reseal, or set a new unit and tie it in properly.
Where it makes sense we set low slope metal over a problem section so it finally drains instead of ponding after every rain.
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.
Waterproofing details on additions, porches and low slope tie ins, where two roofs meet and most leaks quietly begin.
We work around your hours, weekends included when that is what it takes to keep your doors open while the roof goes on.
Squirrels, wasps and water all treat a soft soffit as a front door. We close it up properly instead of patching over it.
Metal is what we are known for. Since 2002 the bulk of our work has been standing seam and metal panel roofs, and it is still what most Borup homeowners call us about. We measure on site, help you settle on a color, and set the panels straight.
We do shingle roofs too, and plenty of them. But if you have been thinking about a tin roof on your Borup home, that is the conversation we enjoy most — panel type, color, trim, and what it is really going to cost.
Here is what Borup homeowners tell us makes the difference.
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.
Standing seam and metal panel roofs are the work we are known for. Color, trim, fastening pattern — we have done hundreds and we will walk you through all of it.
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.
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.
The questions that come up on just about every estimate we write.
No. Estimates are always free in Borup. 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.
Often, yes. Plenty of the Borup 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 Borup 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.
That is most of what leak work is. Water runs along decking and rafters before it ever drips, so the stain on your Borup ceiling is rarely under the actual hole. We work back to the real entry point, fix that, and check the rest of the roof while we are up there.
We do. After a storm we photograph the damage on your Borup roof and write an itemized estimate you can hand to your adjuster. We do not file the claim for you and we will not promise you what an adjuster is going to approve — that is their call, not ours.
Yes. Gutters, guards, soffit and fascia are all part of keeping the edge of a Borup roof dry, so we handle them along with the roof instead of sending you off to find somebody else to finish the job.
