Orono, MNOrono is home base
We're based in Orono, so the roofs along Orono's bays, wooded lots and horse-country acreage are the ones we see most. That familiarity shapes how we inspect, plan and stage every job here.
Working close to home
Orono wraps around a long stretch of Lake Minnetonka's shoreline, with Crystal Bay, Smithtown Bay and North Arm all touching the city. Away from the water it opens into larger rural-residential lots with long driveways and mature hardwoods. Both settings affect a roof. Lake exposure brings wind across open water, and heavy tree cover keeps shaded slopes damp and fills gutters every fall.
Because we're local, a quick look after a storm or a follow-up visit is a short drive, not a special trip.
Orono roofs we see often
Lakeshore homes
Big, complex rooflines with multiple valleys, dormers and lake-facing walls of glass. Flashing detail matters more than square footage here.
Acreage properties
Homes, garages and outbuildings on a single parcel. We can scope them together so the materials and timing match.
Older cabins turned year-round
Additions over the decades often leave roof-to-wall transitions that leak. We look closely at where old meets new.
Questions Orono homeowners ask us
Can you work around a lake-lot driveway with tight access?
Usually, yes. Many Orono lake lots have narrow or steep drives. We plan dumpster placement and material delivery during the inspection so there are no surprises on day one.
Is composite slate a good fit for a lake home?
It can be. Homeowners who want a slate or shake look without the weight often consider composite roofing such as Brava. It costs more than asphalt, and we'll price both so you can compare.
Do you check docks or boathouses?
If a boathouse or detached structure has a shingled roof, we're happy to look at it during the same visit.
