Bloomington

Thousands of postwar homes, and plenty of roofs due for a change

Bloomington grew fast after World War II. The ramblers and split-levels from that boom are now on their second or third roof, and many are ready for siding and window updates too.

Start here: Bloomington questions we hear most

My 1960s rambler has a simple roof. Why does the quote include ventilation?

Many homes from that era were built with minimal attic ventilation. Balancing intake and exhaust during a re-roof helps the new shingles last and reduces ice dams.

We're near the airport. Does that affect roofing?

Not really. Noise-mitigation programs over the years affected some homes' windows and insulation, but the roof itself is a standard job.

Should I replace siding and windows with the roof?

If they're all aging, coordinating them can save trim and flashing work. If not, there's no need. We'll tell you what we see.

East and west Bloomington

East Bloomington, closer to the airport and the Mall of America, has many of the oldest postwar ramblers on smaller lots. West Bloomington, toward Hyland Lake Park Reserve and the Minnesota River bluffs, has more split-levels and larger lots with trees.

Both areas have mature homes, and both get their share of hail. See how we handle a storm damage inspection.
