Schmidt Brothers Roofing | Roofing Services in Mankato, MN 56001

Proper ventilation is crucial for Mankato homes to manage the temperature extremes and humidity we experience. In winter, it prevents warm, moist air from getting trapped in the attic and forming damaging ice dams. In summer, it allows hot air to escape, reducing strain on your AC and protecting your shingles from premature aging. At Schmidt Brothers Roofing, we assess your ventilation system during every roof inspection or replacement to ensure it's working effectively for your home's health and efficiency.

Our warranty covers the quality of our installation work for a full decade. This means if an issue arises due to our installation methods or materials, we will return to fix it at no cost to you. It's our promise of reliability and stands in addition to the manufacturer's warranty on your shingles. This long-term commitment reflects our confidence in doing the job right the first time for homeowners throughout the Mankato, Rochester, and Twin Cities regions.

For ice dams, which are a frequent problem here, we focus on prevention through proper attic insulation, ventilation, and seamless gutter installation to ensure water flows away from your roof edge. For shingle cracking, often caused by our freeze-thaw cycles and UV exposure, we use high-quality, impact-resistant asphalt shingles rated for our climate and ensure they are installed with correct nailing techniques. Addressing these local challenges is a standard part of our roof inspection and repair process.
