Maple Grove, Minnesota
Seasoned Certified Roof Assessment in Maple Grove, MN
Hail does not pick one house in Maple Grove, it works a whole subdivision at once, which is why we often assess several roofs on the same street in Arbor Lakes or Weaver Lake in the same week. Your neighbor getting a new roof is not proof that you need one, and it is not proof that you do not. Someone has to get up there and count.

A street built together ages together
On a hail assessment we mark out test areas on each slope and count strikes, because a claim lives or dies on which elevations took it and how hard. Soft metals tell us first: gutters, downspouts, vent caps and furnace flashings dent before an asphalt shingle bruises, so we photograph those and then work the field. What we find in Rush Creek and off the Arbor Lakes streets is that the roofs went on within a few years of each other, so a whole block sits at the same point in its life. That cuts both ways. A bruised shingle on a roof with years left is worth documenting and watching. One at the end of its run is a different conversation, and if you would rather not repeat it in ten years, look at Brava tile roofing and what it is built to take before you commit.
Certified Roof Assessment in Maple Grove
What a hail assessment turns up here
Strikes counted on marked test squares
We chalk out test areas on each slope and count what is in them. That gives a real picture of which elevations took the storm, instead of a general claim that the roof got hit.
Soft metals checked before the shingles
Gutters, vent caps, downspouts and furnace flashings dent first. If those are clean, the shingles usually are too, and that saves everyone a pointless claim.
Your street, not just your roof
Hail lands on a subdivision, not a single address. If several houses around Weaver Lake took the same storm, we say so, and neighbors often want a look while we are on the street.
Documentation an adjuster can work from
Dated photos, slope by slope notes, strike counts and the storm date in one place. That is what keeps a claim moving instead of turning into an argument about wear versus hail.
Where your roof sits in its life
Late 1990s and 2000s construction here is reaching replacement age as a group. We separate how much of what we see is age and how much is storm, because they are not the same thing.
An honest finding of no damage
Plenty of roofs we look at after a storm are fine. We will tell you that, put it in writing with the date, and you will have a record for the next time hail comes through.
How we work a storm-hit neighborhood
We inspect a block at a time
When hail hits Arbor Lakes it hits everyone. We would rather come out once and look at several houses on a street than make each neighbor wait their turn.
We meet the adjuster on the roof
Storm and insurance work is a regular part of what we do. Being there when the adjuster walks it means the test squares and the strike counts get looked at together.
Rated five stars by neighbors
A five star average across 217 Google reviews. On streets where the same storm hit every house, a reputation travels fast, and we would like to keep ours.
We do not chase the storm
We are based in Eden Prairie and work here year round. You are not dealing with a company that appears after a hail event and is gone by spring.
We explain what we found
You will hear plain language about which slopes took damage, what is age related, and what the report actually says. What you do with it is your call.
What people near Maple Grove say
The crew arrived early and spread tarps all around the house to capture every bit of debris. By 3:00 PM, my entire roof was completely finished.

Maple Grove hail questions
What people in Maple Grove ask us about this work. If yours is not covered, call and ask.
My whole street in Maple Grove is getting new roofs. Do I need one?
Maybe not. Houses built in the same few years take the same storms and reach replacement age together, so the pattern is real, but hail does not land evenly across a subdivision. We count strikes on your slopes and tell you what your roof took. Sometimes that is a claim, and sometimes it is a note to keep on file.
How long after a hail storm can I still file a claim?
Policies set their own deadlines and they are shorter than most people expect, often a year or two from the date of the storm. The practical answer is get it inspected while the evidence is fresh. Bruises weather over, and the longer you wait the harder it is to tie them to a particular date.
Can you tell hail damage from normal wear on a twenty year old roof?
Usually yes, and it matters because the two are treated very differently. Hail leaves round bruises with a soft mat and knocked-off granules, often with matching dents on the vents and gutters. Age looks like even granule loss, curling and cracking across the whole plane. We photograph both and say which is which.
Find out what the hail actually did
Give us the storm date and the address. We will count strikes on each slope, check the soft metals, and leave you with dated photos and a written assessment.
