Durable Roofing Built for Cold Winters

If you own a home in Mankato, you already know what a Minnesota winter does to a roof. Ice builds up along the edges, wind tears at loose shingles, and freeze-thaw cycles pull at every seam. Asphalt shingle roofing remains one of the most proven ways to protect your home from those conditions without requiring constant upkeep or stretching your budget beyond what makes sense.

Stevensen Siding & Remodeling LLC works with Malarkey and GAF asphalt shingle systems, both known for strong wind ratings and cold-weather performance. You choose between architectural shingles that add dimension and depth or impact-resistant options that hold up under hail and heavy debris. Installation includes a full tear-off of old materials, proper underlayment, updated flashing around chimneys and valleys, and ventilation upgrades that keep your attic temperature balanced. Color and style selection is done with your home design in mind, and every system comes with manufacturer-backed warranty options that cover materials and workmanship.

If your roof is showing wear or you are preparing for a replacement, schedule a professional inspection in Mankato to review your options and get a clear estimate.

Installation Covers Every Layer That Matters

When you book asphalt shingle installation in Mankato, the crew removes your existing roof down to the deck, inspects the wood sheathing for soft spots or rot, and replaces damaged sections before any new material goes down. Underlayment is rolled across the entire surface, flashing is rebuilt around penetrations, and shingles are nailed in a staggered pattern that resists wind uplift. Ventilation is checked and upgraded if needed to prevent moisture buildup in your attic.

After the work is done, your roof will shed water cleanly, resist wind gusts that used to lift edges, and handle snow loads without sagging or pooling. The color you selected will look uniform across every plane, and the texture will add depth that flat shingles cannot match.

Architectural shingles are thicker and heavier than standard three-tab options, which means better impact resistance and a longer lifespan. Impact-resistant versions include a reinforced mat that absorbs hail strikes without cracking. Both options are designed to meet or exceed local building codes, and both are available in a range of colors that work with siding, trim, and stone accents common in Minnesota homes.
