Roofing Options for Twin Cities Homeowners

Roof replacement is not something most of us look forward to. However, it has to be done. Most roofs needs to be replaced every twenty years, some more, some less, depending on your choice of material and the quality of the roofing contractors. Minnesota roofs are built to last and to brave some of the harshest weather conditions. However, this does not mean your roof is indestructible.
If you are considering a roof replacement or are in need of a quick roof repair, then contact Capital Siding, Windows & Roofing. We are a fully operated Minnesota roofing company. We can provide you with several roofing options and an affordable estimate to suit all budgets and roofing needs.

There are a number of reasons why your roof may need replacing. Some of these are listed below:

• Weather wear and tear –three words – sun, rain and snow. All three are common occurrences in Minnesota and all can cause damage to your roof. The heat and ultraviolet rays from the sun can cause roofing material to deteriorate over time. The water from the rain and snow can get underneath the shingles on your roof, causing them to crack and bend. In some instances, the rain can also cause your shingles to rot. Snow can cause a mountain of problems as well include drainage concerns and cracks due to freezing and melting.
• Storms and Hail Damage – in addition to the normal weather Minnesota experienced throughout the year, storm and hail damage can also cause our roofs to deteriorate right before our eyes. Hail can cause leaks in the shingles as well as excessive water build up. Storms can blow trees onto your roof and further wreck the shingles and other roofing materials. Furthermore, high winds can lift shingles edges off and force water and debris underneath them.
• Trees and Leaves – tree branches are known to scratch roofing material if they are too close to a roof while leaves on a roof can retain moisture causing rotting as well as cause blockage in gutters.
• Condensation, moss and algae – another common problem our roofs face is condensation due to the buildup of warm air. Condensation, moss and algae can all lead to roof rotting. In some instances only a few shingles will be affected by the green and black mould; however, in other instances, your entire roof may need replacing.
