Roof Replacement and Roof Repair in Stillwater & the St. Croix Valley
Stillwater is Minnesota's oldest town, and its hillside neighborhoods prove it — 1860s–1900s homes with the steepest, most cut-up rooflines in the metro, stacked above the historic downtown. Ring them with Croixwood's 1970s ramblers, the Liberty on the Lake and Legends neighborhoods from the 1990s–2000s, and the river towns of Bayport, Afton, Lakeland, and Scandia, and you have a service area where the right crew matters more than almost anywhere else. We've roofed the valley since 2000.
Roof Replacement in Stillwater & the Valley
Steep historic roofs are specialist work: proper staging and harness work on 10/12-and-steeper pitches, flashing at dormers and intersecting gables, decking that's often original lumber, and the judgment to keep a period-correct look. Our locked written estimate prices deck repair honestly before tear-off. On the newer Liberty and Legends stock, the job is the boom-era playbook — architectural upgrade, ventilation correction, code ice and water barrier — with HOA documentation where needed. Owens Corning systems, warranties to 50 years, valley-wide.
Roof Repair in Stillwater & the Valley
The St. Croix Valley funnels wind, and wind damage on exposed bluff-line roofs is our most common valley repair — alongside ice dams on the shaded north-slope hillside homes, flashing failures on complex old rooflines, and hail from the same east-metro storm tracks that hit Woodbury in September 2025. Free documented inspection, honest verdict, full insurance claim handling when it's a storm.
Seamless Gutters in Stillwater & the St. Croix Valley
Steep historic roofs move water fast, and Stillwater has more of them than anywhere else in the metro. We install seamless aluminum gutters fabricated on-site, which matters on the odd run lengths and stacked porch roofs these houses have. 5-inch is the standard size and works on the smaller elevations and outbuildings. On the steep pitches climbing the valley bluffs — where a single storm cell can send a full roof plane's worth of water into one corner in a couple of minutes — 6-inch with 3x4 downspouts is the honest spec. Bayport and Afton homes under heavy tree cover deal with constant debris, so guards come up often. Heated gutter cable is close to standard on the shaded north eaves here, where the valley's cold air keeps ice in place for weeks and drives the ice dam and soffit and fascia work we do in the same neighborhoods.

FAQs
Our 1880s house is in the historic district. What are the rules?
Stillwater's Heritage Preservation Commission reviews exterior changes in designated areas — we'll flag whether your project needs review and supply what the application requires.
Can you safely roof a 12/12 pitch above a stone retaining wall?
Yes — steep-slope staging and tie-off work is standard for our crews, and it's priced into the estimate rather than discovered on build day.
