Asphalt Shingle Roof Replacement Project in Minnetonka, MN








This is information about an asphalt shingle roof replacement project in Minnetonka, MN. If you are in need of roof replacement services, eRoof can help.
🏠 Project Overview
This Minnetonka roof replacement involved a full tear-off of a heavily deteriorated cedar shake roof that had reached the end of its life. The before photos show shingles splitting apart, curling, gaps opening up in valleys, and debris accumulating across the entire roof surface.
The homeowner replaced the old shake system with CertainTeed Landmark ClimateFlex AR shingles in Georgetown Gray, a Class 4 impact resistant shingle that offers a significant upgrade in durability, longevity, and protection compared to natural cedar. The project also included three new Velux skylights, two custom chimney crickets, and a complete ventilation overhaul.
