Mark Loomis Construction | Roofing Services in West Concord, MN 55985

We specifically design our new roof installations to address the high-risk areas for leaks, like valleys. We use precision-cut valley liners and specialized underlayment systems to create a watertight channel. Combined with expert installation techniques for shingles and flashing, this prevents the ice damming and water backup that often cause valley leaks in our local climate, giving your new roof superior protection from day one.

A full roof replacement with us is the perfect time to solve insulation moisture. We first perform a thorough inspection of your roof deck and insulation. If moisture is present, we'll advise on the necessary repairs, which often include replacing compromised decking and wet insulation. We then install a proper ventilation system—including ridge and soffit vents—as part of the replacement. This critical step ensures your new roof and attic space stay dry and energy-efficient, preventing the issue from recurring.

Our process goes beyond just swapping shingles. We focus on the entire roofing system. For homes in West Concord, this means a dedicated assessment of ventilation and ice dam protection. We ensure proper air flow from soffit to ridge to vent moisture-laden air from the attic. We also install an ice and water shield along the eaves and in valleys—a crucial defense against the melting and freezing cycles that cause moisture intrusion here. It's this comprehensive approach that provides a long-term solution.
