Roof Replacement
Full roof replacement starts with a complete tear-off down to the deck. We inspect every board for rot or soft spots. In Alburnett, we find decking damage on about 30% of tear-offs. Damaged sections get replaced with CDX plywood before anything else goes on. Then we build up: ice and water shield in valleys and at eaves, synthetic underlayment across the full deck, new drip edge on every edge, starter strip, field shingles, hip and ridge caps, and ridge vent. Dumpster, permits, and cleanup included.

Roof Repair
Missing shingles from wind damage expose the underlayment to UV degradation. If the underlayment is compromised, water intrusion follows the next rain. We don't just replace the missing shingle. We pull back surrounding courses, inspect the underlayment for UV damage and nail holes, replace compromised sections, and weave new CertainTeed Landmark or IKO Cambridge shingles into the existing field. Proper repair, not a patch.

Metal Roofing
Metal roofing works on pitches as low as 3:12 for standing seam and as low as 1:12 with specific underlayment and sealant requirements. Steep pitches look incredible in metal. We help you choose the right panel profile, material, and color for your Alburnett home.

Shingle Roofing
The difference between a cheap shingle roof and a quality one comes down to the system underneath. Shingles are only the outer layer. Ice and water shield in the valleys, synthetic underlayment across the deck, proper starter strip with factory adhesive, correct nailing pattern. That's what makes a shingle roof last in Iowa's weather.

Commercial Roofing
Your commercial roof has HVAC units, exhaust fans, plumbing vents, and satellite dishes punching through it. Every penetration is a potential leak point. We install prefabricated curbs, custom-welded flashings, and pitch pans that handle foot traffic and thermal cycling without failing.

Gutter Installation
Clogged gutters cause fascia rot, soffit damage, and foundation erosion from concentrated water runoff. That's not a marketing scare tactic. We see the damage on every other gutter replacement in Alburnett. Properly sized gutters with adequate downspout capacity move water away from the house. We calculate capacity using rainfall intensity data for Alburnett: roof area x pitch factor x rainfall rate in inches per hour. Standard 5" K-style handles 5,520 square feet of effective roof area.

Roof Inspection
We don't inspect roofs from the ground with binoculars. We get on the roof. Every inspection includes a full walkthrough: shingle condition, flashing integrity, pipe boots, ridge vent, soffit ventilation, gutter function, and visible attic moisture signs. You get photos and a written report.
