Lakes Area Roofing and General Contracting | Roofing Services in Brainerd, MN 56401

Brainerd's extreme temperature fluctuations cause roofing materials to expand and contract repeatedly, leading to stress cracks. For a new installation, we use impact-resistant, cold-weather-rated shingles designed specifically for our climate. Proper attic ventilation is also crucial to regulate temperature, which we ensure to extend your roof's lifespan and prevent premature cracking.

Yes, flashing separation is a very common local issue, especially around chimneys, vents, and skylights. The freeze-thaw cycles can loosen the sealant and metal. Our roof repair service includes a thorough inspection of all flashings. We reseal or replace compromised flashing with high-quality, flexible sealants and proper installation techniques to create a watertight barrier that withstands our Minnesota winters.

Heavy snow accumulation puts immense stress on your roof structure and can lead to ice dams, which force water under shingles and damage flashings. Our professional snow removal service safely clears excess weight from your roof. This proactive measure prevents the conditions that cause ice dams and flashing failures, protecting your home from costly water damage and extending the life of your roofing system.
