Serving Plymouth
Roof repair and replacement in Plymouth, MN
Plymouth is the biggest suburb we serve and the one with the most roofs coming due at once. From 1970s walkouts around Medicine Lake to 2000s two-stories along Vicksburg Lane, we repair, replace and inspect them with the same crews and written pricing we use in Maple Grove.
Roofing in Plymouth
Plymouth built out in the same waves as Maple Grove, a decade earlier. East of I-494 — around Medicine Lake, Parkers Lake, and the neighborhoods off Highway 55 and County Road 9 — the homes are 1960s–80s ramblers, split-entries and walkouts, many with low attic insulation and the ice dam history to prove it. The center of the city, from Vicksburg Lane to Dunkirk Lane, is the 1980s–90s core: two-story colonials and walkouts with steep pitches, valleys, and the original or second architectural shingles now at 20–30 years. West of Dunkirk toward Medina — Steeple Chase, Hollydale, the newer plats off Peony Lane — is 1990s–2010s, larger homes, more dormers, more cut-up roofs, and the first round of hail bruising showing on shingles that were supposed to last another decade.
Roofers Plymouth MN homeowners hire deal with the same climate we do: 50-plus inches of snow, February thaws, and a summer hail track that runs from Wayzata up through Plymouth to Maple Grove more years than not.
What we see most here
- Ice dams on north eaves and over cantilevered bays in the 1970s–80s homes east of 494, where attic insulation is often half of what the Minnesota energy code calls for now. Removal, repair and the attic fix are on the ice dam page.
- Failing valleys on the 1980s–90s two-stories in the center of the city, where three planes meet and the original flashing was aluminum caulked in place.
- Hail bruising across west- and south-facing slopes after a June or July storm, most of it on 2000s roofs west of Dunkirk Lane that are otherwise fine.
- Pipe boots and skylights on the 1990s houses, on a 10–15 year replacement cycle.
- Full replacement on the 1990s architectural shingles from Vicksburg to Dunkirk, which is the single most common job we do in Plymouth right now.
What it costs in Plymouth
Same pricing as Maple Grove, no travel charge. Repairs run $300–$1,500. Architectural shingle replacement is $450–$800 per square, so a 2,400 sq ft two-story with a 28–32 square roof is $13,000–$24,000. The larger walkouts and custom homes west of Dunkirk with 40-plus squares and a lot of valleys run higher, and standing-seam steel is two to three times shingle pricing. The cost page breaks it down by house size.
Permits and licensing
Plymouth requires a building permit for a roof replacement and inspects the ice-and-water membrane before shingles go on. Any roofer working here needs a Minnesota residential building contractor or roofer license from the Department of Labor and Industry; look up any company at dli.mn.gov before you sign. Our guide on questions to ask a roofing contractor is written for Plymouth as much as Maple Grove.

Roof Inspection →Questions we get asked
Do you charge extra to come to Plymouth?
No. Plymouth is inside our regular service area — most of it is closer to our crews than the west edge of Maple Grove. Pricing, warranty and scheduling are the same. Repairs are usually within a few days; a replacement is scheduled one to three weeks out depending on the season and the weather.
My Plymouth home has a walkout and a low-slope section over the porch. Can you handle that?
Yes. Low-slope sections under 3/12 pitch get a full coverage of ice-and-water membrane or a modified-bitumen roll roofing instead of shingles, because shingles on a low slope are where ice dam water gets in first. We see that detail on a lot of 1970s–80s walkouts east of 494 and it's a normal part of a replacement here.
How do I know if my Plymouth roof was hit by hail?
Check the soft metals from the ground — gutters, downspouts, roof vents, the AC condenser fins. If they're dented, the shingles probably are too. Don't take a door-knocker's word for it; book an inspection and we'll walk the roof, mark the hits, and tell you whether it's a claim worth filing against your deductible.
