What Mendota weather does to your roof.

What we actually see on Mendota roofs.
Mendota is one of the oldest settlements in Minnesota and one of the smallest cities we serve — a few blocks of historic riverfront housing where the Minnesota River meets the Mississippi, below the Mendota Heights bluff. The building stock includes genuinely old structures, and they are not roofed like a 1990s suburb.
On the historic homes here we deal with steep pitches, plank decking, original masonry chimneys, and additions layered on over a century. Flashing, chimney crickets and valley detail carry the roof — not the shingle. We plan those details before tear-off, not during.
Sitting in the river bottom, Mendota also gets a distinct wind pattern coming up the valley. Damage tends to concentrate on the river-facing slopes and at ridge and rake lines, so those are the first slopes we photograph.

Answers before you file a claim.
My Mendota home is over a hundred years old. Can it be reroofed normally?+
It can, but the prep is different. We expect plank decking that needs re-sheeting, original masonry chimneys that need new counter flashing and often a cricket, and layered additions with awkward transitions. Those details go in the written scope before we start rather than becoming surprises.
Why is only one side of my roof damaged?+
Wind funnels up the river valley here, so the river-facing slopes and the ridge and rake lines take the brunt while the sheltered side can look untouched. Directional damage is completely normal and we document it slope by slope for the adjuster.
Do you handle the chimney flashing, or do I need a mason?+
We handle the flashing, counter flashing and cricket as part of the roof. If the brick or crown itself is deteriorating we will tell you and photograph it — that is masonry work, and we would rather flag it than shingle around a failing chimney.
How fast can you get to Mendota after a storm?+
Same-day for emergency tarping and typically within 48 hours for a full inspection. Mendota is minutes from our service corridor, and being a very small city, it often gets skipped by the large storm crews — we do not skip it.
