Summer humidity in the Twin Cities and across Central Minnesota brings more than muggy air—it brings hidden challenges
In Minnesota, a roof has to perform under weather conditions that push roofing materials and roof construction methods
For many Eagan homeowners, the roof is one of the most expensive parts of the home to repair
We recommend GAF Timberline UHDZ® shingles with UltraMat™ and GAF Timberline® HDZ® shingles for their proven durability and weather resistance. Both options are engineered to perform well in Minnesota’s challenging climate and carry Class 4 impact resistance ratings, making them a strong choice for protection against hail and high winds. These high-performance shingles are designed to maintain their integrity through extreme temperature changes and provide long-lasting protection against harsh weather conditions common in the Twin Cities region.
In some cases, replacing only a section of shingles is a viable option, especially if the damage is localized. However, if your roof has widespread damage, frequent leaks, or aging materials, a full replacement might be a more cost-effective solution. Our team evaluates your roof’s condition and provides honest recommendations based on what will deliver the best long-term results for your home.
We use GAF shingles, an innovative roofing product made with NEX® Polymer Modified Asphalt Technology. Its lifespan varies depending on several factors but typically lasts between 20 to 30 years.
Accurate and seamless shingle installation is key to a durable roofing. Twin Cities Siding and Roofing offers expert shingle replacement, and other roofing solutions.
Our team is highly-skilled and works with precision and care. Whether it is a simple shingle replacement or a full roof replacement, we guarantee a work that lasts. Call us today at (651) 571-9557, and receive a free consultation.
