This is a very common issue in our area. During winter, snow and ice can build up in your gutters and at the roof's edge, forming ice dams. This trapped water can seep under shingles and saturate the roof underlayment—the critical waterproof barrier beneath. As the snow melts in spring, this already-compromised underlayment can no longer hold back the water, leading to sudden leaks. We inspect for this specific damage pattern and repair both the shingles and the compromised underlayment.

Inside your Anoka home, look for water stains on ceilings or walls, especially near the roofline. In the attic, check for damp insulation, mold, or daylight visible through the roof boards. Externally, curling or buckling shingles can indicate moisture trapped underneath. If you notice any granules from your asphalt shingles in the gutters, it can be a sign of advanced wear accelerated by underlayment failure. We offer free, thorough inspections to identify these issues before they lead to major interior damage.

Our repair process is tailored to Minnesota winters. First, we safely remove the affected shingles to expose the damaged underlayment. We then replace it with a high-grade, ice-and-water barrier membrane, which we extend further up the roof deck than standard code to protect against future ice dams—a crucial step for Anoka homes. Finally, we re-shingle with quality materials, ensuring proper sealing and ventilation to prevent recurrence. Our goal is a repair that not only fixes the leak but also fortifies your roof against next season's snow and ice.
