Roof Replacement and Roof Repair in Mounds View
Mounds View is one of those Twin Cities suburbs that got built to house workers at the Twin Cities Army Ammunition Plant after World War II, incorporated in 1958, and then filled in fast north and south of what's now Mounds View Boulevard (renamed from County Road 10 in 2016). Most of the housing stock reflects that — postwar single-family with a heavy dose of townhome and manufactured home developments layered in.
Mounds View has one of the strictest roof-permit specs in the metro
Before you sign with anyone, know this: the city's re-roof handout requires ice-and-water barriers over any roof edge over conditioned space, kick-out flashing at wall terminations, a maximum of two shingle layers, and an on-site final inspection (photos of the underlayment can substitute for the rough-in, but you cannot skip the final walk). Permits run $65–$100. Any roofer who tells you Mounds View doesn't inspect or that they'll “handle the permit later” is telling you they've never worked here.
Roof Replacement in Mounds View
We build the estimate to the Mounds View spec from the start — kick-out flashing where the roof meets a wall, ice-and-water over every heated edge, two layers max, tear-off if you already have two on there. The Owens Corning system we install carries warranties to 50 years, and we schedule the final on-site inspection so you never get stuck between the city and a contractor who's already been paid.
Roof Repair in Mounds View
Mounds View has taken meaningful hail on multiple recent dates — 1.25-inch on August 11, 2021; 1.00-inch on July 24, 2023; 1.75-inch on August 11, 2023; golf-ball on July 27, 2025; half-dollar hail on June 19, 2026. If your roof caught any of those and never got documented, the bruising is quietly working against you. Free inspection, real photos, honest verdict on repair-vs-claim-vs-replace.
Townhome and manufactured-home associations
Because so much of Mounds View housing is in townhome and manufactured home developments — Colonel Village, Townsedge Terrace, Pleasant View Townhomes — we work with association boards on multi-building bids, color documentation, and phased schedules that don't shut down the whole property at once.

FAQs
The city really requires an on-site final inspection?
Yes. The 2025 handout is explicit: an on-site final inspection is required. Photos are not a substitute. If a contractor tells you otherwise in Mounds View, that's a red flag.
Do you work with townhome associations?
Yes. Multi-building bids, HOA color documentation, phased scheduling — it's routine work for us in Mounds View given how much of the city is in association housing.
Can I go over my existing shingles instead of tearing off?
Only if you have one layer. Mounds View allows a maximum of two layers total. If you already have two, it's a tear-off — and honestly, on any roof over 15 years old, tear-off is the right call anyway.
Do I need kick-out flashing?
If your roof terminates against a wall — yes. Kick-out flashing is required, and it's the number-one place we see leaks on Mounds View homes that were re-roofed without one.
