Roof Repair or Roof Replacement in Inver Grove Heights? Start With a Free Inspection
If you are searching for a roofer in Inver Grove Heights, here is what happens when you call us: we get on the roof (weather and safety permitting), photograph every slope plus the flashing, vents, gutters and soft metals, and give you a written summary with a plain recommendation — repair it, replace it, or leave it alone. A lifted shingle run, a failed pipe boot or a single hail-hit slope is often a roof repair; widespread granule loss, brittle shingles or storm damage across multiple slopes is usually a roof replacement. The inspection is free, and if we do not find damage we say so. Owner-led from Cottage Grove since 2001, about 20 minutes from Inver Grove Heights on Highway 52.

Roof Replacement & Storm Damage Repair in Inver Grove Heights
Inver Grove Heights sits in a corridor that sees frequent severe weather from spring through fall. Hailstorms that roll through the south metro routinely damage roofs that look fine from the street but are failing at the shingle granule level. Northern Exteriors MN provides free roof inspections for Inver Grove Heights homeowners — we get up on your roof, photograph everything, and give you an honest assessment of whether you need repairs, a full replacement, or nothing at all.
If your Inver Grove Heights home has sustained storm damage, we document it the way an adjuster needs to see it: hail hits per slope, wind lift, soft-metal dents and collateral damage, all photographed and dated. We can meet your adjuster on site and walk the roof with them. Your adjuster decides coverage; we make sure nothing gets missed.
Just north of us along the river, our South St. Paul MN roofing page covers storm inspections and older-home roof replacement there.
Every roof replacement we do in Inver Grove Heights includes: full tear-off and haul-away, ice and water shield at all eaves and valleys, synthetic underlayment, new drip edge, flashing at all penetrations, architectural shingles in your choice of color and style, and ridge ventilation for proper attic airflow. We install Class 4 impact-resistant shingles, including Malarkey Legacy and Vista as a Malarkey Certified Pro Contractor; some insurers discount premiums for Class 4 roofs, so ask your agent.
Roof Repair in Inver Grove Heights
Not every leak needs a new roof. A cracked pipe boot, a failed chimney or sidewall flashing, a wind-lifted run of shingles or a single damaged slope can usually be repaired when the surrounding shingles are still sound and a compatible shingle is available. We tell you which it is after we look, and we price the repair on its own — not as a bait for a replacement. For how we approach leaks, flashing and shingle repairs, see our Twin Cities roof repair page.
Siding Installation in Inver Grove Heights, MN
Inver Grove Heights has a diverse mix of housing stock — split-levels and ramblers from the 1970s and 80s alongside newer two-story homes near Simley High School and along Rich Valley Boulevard. Northern Exteriors MN has sided homes of every era and style throughout the city.
We specialize in LP SmartSide engineered wood siding, the leading cold-climate siding product for Minnesota homes. LP SmartSide withstands temperature swings, moisture, and impact that cracks and warps lesser materials. It holds paint far longer than vinyl and gives homes a premium, wood-like aesthetic. For Inver Grove Heights homeowners looking to dramatically improve their home’s curb appeal and energy efficiency, new LP SmartSide siding is one of the best investments available.
We also install quality vinyl and steel siding. All installations include house wrap, window and door flashing, and complete trim work.

Wind-Exposed Roofs Across Inver Grove Heights
Inver Grove Heights spreads across rolling, bluff-influenced terrain, and that landscape shapes how local roofs hold up to Minnesota weather. We work on homes throughout the city, from the neighborhoods near the Veterans Memorial Community Center to the newer developments around Arbor Pointe and the more open, wind-exposed areas along the bluffs. Higher, exposed lots tend to catch the brunt of wind-driven storms, which can lift or loosen shingles and stress siding and flashing in ways that aren’t always visible from the street.
We also serve the river bluff neighborhoods next door — see our Mendota Heights roofing page.
After a wind-driven storm moves through, your roof may have damage that only shows up on closer inspection — a lifted shingle edge, a cracked seal, or impact marks on vents and gutters. Our local inspections cover the roof along with the siding and exterior, and we provide clear photo documentation and a written summary you can keep or share with your insurer. We won’t push you toward a claim or a replacement you don’t need. To see what storm-related wear can look like, visit our hail damage roofing page, and when you’re ready you can request a free Inver Grove Heights roof inspection and estimate.
Should I have my roof checked after a windstorm in Inver Grove Heights?
If your home sits on an exposed lot or near the bluffs, a quick inspection after a strong windstorm is a smart idea. Wind-lifted shingles and loosened flashing can let water in long before you notice a leak inside. We’ll document what we find and let you know honestly whether anything needs attention.
Frequently Asked Questions — Roofing & Siding in Inver Grove Heights, MN
How do I know if my roof has hail damage?
Hail damage often is not visible from the ground. Signs include dented or bruised shingles, fresh granule loss in gutters or downspouts, damaged ridge cap, and soft spots in the decking. Inver Grove Heights sees significant hail activity through spring and summer — if your neighborhood was hit, a free inspection is worth scheduling even if your roof looks fine from the street.
What does your insurance claim support actually include?
We inspect your roof before your insurance adjuster arrives, document all damage with detailed photos, and can meet your adjuster on-site to make sure storm-related damage is properly identified. We do not make guarantees about claim outcomes — that is between you and your insurer — but homeowners who have a licensed contractor present during the adjuster visit typically get more complete assessments.
What is the difference between Class 4 shingles and standard shingles?
Class 4 impact-resistant shingles are tested to withstand larger hailstones without cracking. Many insurance companies offer premium discounts for homes with Class 4 shingles — in some cases, the savings over time can offset the modest cost difference. For Inver Grove Heights homes in the south metro hail corridor, it is an option worth discussing when you are already replacing your roof.
You serve a big area — are you actually local to Inver Grove Heights?
We are based in the south metro and have been serving Dakota County homeowners — including Inver Grove Heights — since 2001. We are not a national franchise or a storm-chasing crew that shows up after bad weather and disappears. Family-owned, MN licensed (#BC297099), and accountable for every job we do.
