Minnesota weather changes constantly, and that’s exactly why we recommend replacing your roof as soon as possible.
We’ll show you real examples of why roof repairs are essential in 2025, and we’ll also walk you through how to handle it quickly — step by step.
How Do I Know If I Need to Repair or Replace My Roof
Here’s a quick checklist of things to look for when evaluating whether it’s time to repair your roof.
You can inspect it yourself by climbing up or using a drone, but we recommend having a professional like us take a look — we focus on important factors such as:
Loose or Missing Shingles
Loose or missing shingles are a real issue. Even if it’s just one or two, the wood underneath can become exposed, collect moisture, and damage large portions of the roof.
Shingles can come loose due to storms or poor installation.
Broken Pattern in the Shingle Layout
It’s important to check the continuity of the shingle pattern.
If the zigzag design looks off, that means some shingles are already loose or about to come off.
It could be just a few or several, depending on the overall condition of your roof.
Cracks in Multiple Shingles
Cracks are a clear sign of aging. Even if your roof was installed well, visible cracks mean the material is reaching the end of its life.
If you wait too long, the damage will spread and you’ll end up doing multiple repairs. In the long run, repairing in parts is more expensive than doing a full replacement when it’s needed.
Mold on Shingles and Worn-Out Materials
Mold on shingles is very common. While it doesn’t always mean the roof is about to fail, it often signals issues with the installation.
It depends on how much mold is present, which is usually caused by trapped or stagnant water.
Leaks or Excess Mold Inside the Attic
Leaks are the number one reason to replace a roof entirely.
When one shows up, it’s only a matter of time before more appear.
Also keep an eye out for mold inside the attic — even without visible leaks, it means water is getting in due to poor installation or hidden damage.
