Cedar Shake Restoration - Roofing Service in Minnetonka, MN 55345

After a storm, the best approach is a professional assessment. We carefully inspect for loose, cracked, or missing shakes caused by wind uplift. Our repair process involves replacing damaged shakes with carefully matched new ones and reinforcing the surrounding area to prevent future issues. This targeted repair restores your roof's protection and appearance without the need for a full replacement.

Nail pops are common in our climate due to temperature swings and wood movement, which push fasteners out. This creates leaks and weak spots. We don't just hammer them back; we remove the popped nail, seal the old hole, and secure the shake with a new, corrosion-resistant fastener in a fresh location. This permanent fix prevents recurrence and protects the shake's integrity.

Most weathered cedar roofs in Minnetonka are excellent candidates for restoration. We clean the roof to remove moss and mildew, gently hand-split and replace severely cupped or curled shakes, and apply a premium penetrating oil stain. This process revives the wood's natural defenses and color, adding years of life and delaying the need for a costly full replacement.
