The lakes area takes real wind: the July 2015 windstorm drove 70-80 mph straight-line winds through Brainerd with trees on houses, and the 2024 storm season caused over $1.7 million in area damage across two events, with hail to 2 inches recorded near town in the last year. Storm season brings out-of-state door-knockers to Brainerd's older blocks. We are a Minnesota company with a Waite Park office, 300+ Google reviews, and a documented claims process.
We come to your Brainerd home, look at the roof and exterior, and give you photos and an honest answer, free.

On a Brainerd home, covered wind or hail damage is paid by your insurer minus your deductible. You get the same documented estimate the adjuster gets, including decking and ventilation findings on older roofs, and if the damage does not support a claim we tell you that.
On most covered claims in Brainerd, your out-of-pocket cost is your insurance deductible. Your insurer pays the rest of the approved scope, and the free inspection tells you whether you have a claim before you file.
Brainerd's median home was built in 1971, and over a quarter of homes in the east-side historic core predate 1950. After wind, we check shingle loss and lifted edges first, then the decking and ventilation underneath, because steep, aging decks here routinely need work at tear-off.
The City of Brainerd requires a dedicated roofing permit for reroofs (Building Dept, 501 Laurel St), so a storm replacement plan includes that step. With hail to 2 inches recorded near town in the last year, we also check ridge caps, vents and flashings for dents.

Usually, yes. Straight-line wind damage like 2015's 80 mph storm and the 2024 season is a covered peril on most homeowner policies. We tarp, document, and work with your insurer.
We do. We photograph the damage, walk your adjuster through it on site, and supply the estimate detail insurers require. We never pay your deductible or adjust your claim; Minnesota law prohibits both, and that works in your favor.
Yes. The City of Brainerd requires a dedicated roofing permit for reroofs, issued through its Building Dept at 501 Laurel St. Any storm replacement plan should include that step, so a covered claim does not stall on paperwork once your insurer approves it.
Sometimes the storm damage is only part of the bill. Steep, aging pre-war decks routinely need decking and ventilation work at tear-off, and we photograph and price that separately so you and your adjuster can see what is storm related and what is age.
No pressure, no pitch. A Minnesota crew that has worked the lakes area before the storm and will be here after the warranty card is printed.
We inspect your Brainerd roof and exterior for storm damage and photograph everything, usually within a couple of days.
You get a straight answer, including what the decking underneath needs: repair, replace, or leave it alone, with real numbers.
Storm damage gets documented for your insurer with decking notes, the roofing permit step is planned, and every step stays within Minnesota law.
