• Cloquet, MNRoof replacementRoof replacement in Cloquet, far enough inland to lose the lake's moderating effect. Snow lands here and stays on the roof through the winter rather than melting off, so the load a Cloquet roof carries is closer to constant than it is up on the Duluth hillside.
• Cloquet, MNRoof replacementRoof replacement in Cloquet. A roof that holds snow all season needs the ventilation to match, because warm air escaping into a cold attic is what turns that snow into ice at the eaves.
• Esko, MNRoof replacementRoof replacement in Esko. Open ground between Cloquet and the Duluth hillside, with little to break the wind and none of the lake's moderating effect, so roofs here see both heavy snow load and wind that drives it sideways.
• Hermantown, MNRoof replacementRoof replacement in Hermantown, above and west of Duluth and far enough from the lake to lose its moderating effect. More snow falls here than on the lakeshore and it stays put, so the roof structure is loaded for the season rather than cycling.
• Lakeside, DuluthRoof replacementRoof replacement in Lakeside, close enough to Lake Superior that winter temperatures hover around freezing instead of staying below it. That means freeze-thaw cycling rather than a steady deep freeze, and ice at the eaves is the problem to design against here.
• Lincoln Park, DuluthRoof replacementRoof replacement in Lincoln Park, on Duluth's west hillside. Most of the housing here went up before 1940, which usually means original sheathing under whatever has been laid over it since, and that is the part you cannot price until the old roofing comes off.
• Morley Heights, DuluthRoof replacementRoof replacement in Morley Heights, on the upper east hillside. Elevation here means more wind and more snow than the neighbourhoods below it, and steep access that has to be planned before the first bundle is lifted.
• Morley Heights, DuluthRoof replacementRoof replacement in Morley Heights. On a hillside lot the staging problem is as real as the roofing one: where the dumpster sits, how material gets up, and how the landscaping below the work survives the tear-off.
• Piedmont, DuluthRoof replacementRoof replacement in Piedmont, high on the west ridge above the city. This is some of the most wind-exposed ground we work on, where sustained northwest wind drives rain and snow up under laps, so fastening pattern and eave detail carry more weight here than the shingle choice does.
• Piedmont, DuluthRoof replacementRoof replacement in Piedmont. Homes on the ridge take weather from every direction with little to break it, and the failures we find on tear-off are almost always at the edges first: rakes, ridges and the first course above the eave.
• Proctor, MNRoof replacementRoof replacement in Proctor, up on the ridge above the harbour. Open, elevated ground with long sight lines and the wind to match, on housing stock built largely for railroad families and now well past the service life of its original roofing.
• West Duluth, MNRoof replacementRoof replacement in West Duluth. The lots are flatter than the hillside, which makes staging and tear-off cleaner, but the housing stock is just as old and the sheathing underneath is just as likely to need work.
• West Duluth, MNRoof replacementRoof replacement in West Duluth, on a home from the era when most of this end of the city was built. Older framing was sized for the roofing of its day, so we check what is under the shingles before we decide what goes back on top.
• West Duluth, MNRoof replacementRoof replacement in West Duluth. Narrow lots and alley access shape how a job like this runs, from where material is dropped to keeping a neighbour's driveway clear while the tear-off is open.
• West Duluth, MNRoof replacementRoof replacement in West Duluth. Houses here tend toward steep pitches and dormers, and every one of those adds a valley or a sidewall that has to be flashed rather than simply shingled over.
• Woodland, DuluthRoof replacementRoof replacement in Woodland, up the hill on Duluth's east side. Mature tree cover keeps these roofs damp and shaded well into spring, which is hard on old underlayment and shows up as decking that has to be replaced rather than reused.
• Wright, MNRoofing and sidingRoof and siding on the same property in Wright, out in rural Carlton County. Open exposure on every side, and doing both trades on one trip means the wall and the roof get tied together properly at the eaves instead of by two crews a year apart.
• Billings Park, SuperiorSiding replacementSiding replacement in Billings Park, across the bay in Superior. Same lake, same weather, same wet-then-frozen cycling through spring and fall, and the same reason siding fails early here: water getting behind it rather than the panels themselves wearing out.
• Hermantown, MNSiding repairSiding repair in Hermantown. Not every wall needs to come off. Where the damage is local and the rest of the siding is sound, the work is matching what is there and fixing the reason it failed.
• Moose Lake, MNSiding repairSiding repair in Moose Lake. A repair lives or dies on the transition: new material has to tie into old flashing and old courses so that water still runs past the joint rather than stopping at it.
• Central Hillside, DuluthWindow removal and gable rebuildWindow removal and gable rebuild in Central Hillside. Closing an opening properly is structural work, not cosmetic: the header comes out, the wall is framed back, and the sheathing and siding are made continuous so the repair does not read as a patch.
• Central Hillside, DuluthWindow replacementWindow replacement in Central Hillside, where the houses are tall, close together and built into the slope. Upper openings are lift work, and the flashing sequence at the head and sill is what keeps a new window from leaking into a hundred-year-old wall.
• Cloquet, MNEgress window installationCustom egress window box in Cloquet. An egress opening has to meet a minimum clear size and give a safe way out at grade, so the box, the drainage and the framing around it are as much of the job as the window itself.
• Piedmont, DuluthWindow replacementWindow replacement in Piedmont, on the exposed west ridge. Openings are the first place wind-driven rain finds its way into a wall, so head flashing and a properly lapped sill pan matter more here than the glass package does.
• Cloquet, MNBathroom remodelBathroom remodel in Cloquet. The part that decides whether a bathroom lasts is behind the tile: the backer board, the waterproofing and the way the wet area is drained, all of it settled before anything decorative goes in.
