Roof Inspection
Our comprehensive 20-point roof inspections identify hidden damage and maintenance needs. Certified technicians examine shingles, flashing, valleys, and structural components using advanced tools to detect storm damage, moisture intrusion, and wear. We provide detailed written reports with repair recommendations and cost estimates, ensuring homeowners understand their roof's condition. Free inspections include documentation for insurance claims and prioritization of safety hazards.
Roof Repair
We address leaks, missing shingles, and storm damage with rapid response and permanent solutions. Our team handles asphalt, metal, and flat roofing systems, repairing ice dams, ventilation issues, and structural weaknesses. Emergency services include temporary tarping and coordination with insurance adjusters. All repairs use manufacturer-approved materials and follow Minnesota building codes for long-term durability.
Roof Replacement
Full roof replacements utilize premium materials including asphalt shingles, metal, and synthetic slate. Our GAF-certified installers ensure proper ventilation, ice dam prevention, and code compliance. Projects include tear-off of old materials, decking repairs, and disposal. Lifetime warranties cover both materials and workmanship, with financing options available to accommodate budgets while maintaining structural integrity.
Storm Damage Restoration
Specialized storm damage services document hail, wind, and water damage for insurance claims. We perform emergency tarping, detailed inspections, and complete roof replacements when necessary. Our team coordinates directly with adjusters to maximize coverage and handles documentation required by Minnesota's Department of Commerce. Restoration includes gutter repairs and attic insulation replacement to restore full functionality.
Gutter Installation
Custom gutter systems prevent water damage through proper drainage solutions. We install seamless aluminum gutters with leaf guards, downspouts, and snow guards tailored to Minnesota's climate. Free design consultations ensure optimal water flow from roof valleys to ground-level drainage, protecting foundations and landscaping while enhancing curb appeal with color-matched finishes.

DO NOT use Empire for your roofing needs! Marlin, the owner doesn't even have the decency to return phone calls or deal with any problems his company has caused. He actually has his staff screen calls, promise he will return messages after multiple attempts, yet goes completely off the grid to avoid conflict. He completely takes advantage of senior citizens , overpricing his work, completely screwing up roofs and applying shingles incorrectly where they are lifting in some areas and disintegrating in others. Horrible experience - having to take legal action to deal with this crook! Run away

Uses wet backs who do not speak English. He was to do a tear off and new material.
Did a fast over lay of shingles. Added too much weight to roof and they damaged vinyl siding. A call to building inspection was made and a new contractor used to redo the work. This guy uses in- house financing to get work and has crews who subcontract. You do not get a quality roofer.

I have been given the run around for over a month regarding a quote given to my husband and I about work we needed on a home we bought based on their experts quote. After the money for repair was tied into the sale of our new home and check written to Empire from the title company Empire came back with a new price that was double the original quote. The excuse given was that the person that gave the quote was no longer with the company. They have said that they would try to contract out the job but we have heard nothing from them in a week and a half. I hope that my opinion will be changed
