Roof Replacement

When repair isn’t worth it anymore, a full tear-off and reroof gives you a clean slate, a manufacturer warranty, and the peace of mind that everything underneath the shingles — underlayment, flashing, ice & water shield, ventilation — is new.

Signs You Need a Roof Replacement, Not Just a Repair

Not every problem calls for a full tear-off — but a few signs mean repair is throwing money at a roof that’s already failing structurally. If your roof is 20+ years old and showing curling or cupped shingles across large sections (not just one spot), granule loss heavy enough that you can see bare asphalt, soft or spongy decking when walked on, or daylight visible through the attic roof boards, you’re past the point where patching makes sense. Multiple past repairs in different areas within a year or two is another signal — it usually means the underlying materials, not just the surface, have reached end of life. A honest inspection tells you which category you’re in before you spend a dollar.

What’s included in a Sellers Roofing replacement

• Tear-off down to the deck — including underlayment and old flashing. We don’t roof-over.
• Deck inspection & repair — any rotten sheathing is replaced before the new roof goes on (and itemized in the estimate).
• Ice & water shield at all eaves, valleys, and penetrations to MN code minimum, with upgrades available.
• Synthetic underlayment across the full deck — not 15# felt.
• Architectural shingles from GAF or Owens Corning — both manufacturers we’re certified to install.
• New flashing at chimneys, walls, vents, and pipe boots — never reused.
• Ridge ventilation sized to your attic — proper balanced ventilation extends shingle life.
• End-of-day cleanup with a magnetic nail sweep of the driveway, lawn, and landscape beds.
• Written labor warranty in your closeout packet — not verbal.

Materials We Install

We’re certified installers for GAF Timberline HDZ and Owens Corning Duration / Duration Storm — the two architectural shingle lines built to hold up to Minnesota’s freeze-thaw cycles and hail exposure. Both come in a range of colors and both qualify for enhanced manufacturer warranty programs (GAF System Plus, Owens Corning Platinum Protection) when installed by a certified contractor — coverage that goes beyond what a non-certified installer can offer. For flat or low-slope sections common on split-levels and additions, we install TPO, EPDM, or modified bitumen rather than trying to shingle a surface that can’t shed water. Metal roofing is available for homeowners who want a 50-year material with strong hail resistance; we’ll walk you through the cost and performance tradeoffs against architectural shingles at your inspection.

How much does a roof replacement cost in Minneapolis?

For a typical 1,800–2,200 sq ft home in the metro, asphalt shingle replacements generally run $11,000–$18,000 depending on pitch, complexity, ventilation upgrades, and material grade. We give you a written, itemized estimate before any work — never “we’ll figure it out on the job.” See our financing options if you’re covering the cost without a full insurance claim.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit for a roof replacement in the Minneapolis metro?

Yes — most cities in our service area require a roofing permit for a full tear-off and reroof. We handle the permit application as part of the project so you don’t have to navigate city requirements yourself.

Can I stay home during the installation?

Yes, most homeowners do. Expect noise, vibration through the house, and crew activity in the yard and driveway for the day. We ask that vehicles be moved from the driveway and that you keep pets away from the work area for their safety.

What happens if you find rotten decking once the old roof is off?

We photograph and show you any compromised sheathing before replacing it, and it’s itemized separately in your final invoice at a per-sheet rate disclosed up front in your estimate — no surprise change orders.

How long does a full replacement actually take?

Most single-family asphalt shingle replacements are completed in one day. Larger or steeper roofs, or homes with multiple roof planes, can run into a second day. We give you a written weather contingency plan with your contract.

Do you serve my city?

We work directly across Brooklyn Park, Edina, Bloomington, and the rest of the Minneapolis metro — see our full service area list.
