The Vinland Way
Maplewood stretches from the edge of St. Paul all the way out to Woodbury, and every part of it takes a beating from Minnesota weather. The older ramblers and split-levels along White Bear Avenue. The 1980s colonials tucked into the neighborhoods off Larpenteur and McKnight. The newer developments up near the Gateway Trail and Priory neighborhood. They all deal with the same thing — hail in the summer, ice in the winter, and wind that doesn’t quit in between.
We’re Vinland Roofing. Our shop is in Roseville at 1315 Larpenteur Ave — we literally share a border with Maplewood. Some of our Maplewood jobs are closer to our office than our Roseville jobs. When a storm hits the Gladstone neighborhood on a Tuesday evening, we’re on the roof Wednesday morning with our ladder and camera.
Maplewood is a working-class city full of homeowners who don’t want to get jerked around by a roofing contractor. We get that. We show up, we tell you what we find, we give you an honest price, and we do the work right. No upsells, no scare tactics, no disappearing after the check clears.
Why Maplewood Homeowners Trust Us
We don’t ask for payment until the work is finished and you’ve seen the results yourself. Every job, no exceptions.
We’re fully licensed and insured in Minnesota. We install GAF and Owens Corning architectural shingles — manufacturer-backed materials with real warranties, not the bargain-bin products some contractors push to pad their margins. Every full replacement includes our own workmanship guarantee.
Maplewood takes storm damage every summer. Hail tracks through the east metro on a regular basis and most homeowners don’t realize the damage until a leak shows up months later. We handle the full insurance process — inspect, document with photos, meet your adjuster on the roof, and follow up until the claim is settled. Most homeowners pay their deductible and nothing else.

Our Services
Roof Repair in Maplewood, MN
Wind-damaged shingles on a rambler off White Bear Avenue. A persistent leak around the skylight on a split-level near Beaver Lake. Flashing separating from the chimney on a Cape Cod backing up to Fish Creek Open Space. We get these calls from Maplewood homeowners week after week. Small roof problems grow fast when water gets involved. We patch leaks, replace damaged shingles, fix flashing, and reseal vent boots. Most repairs take a few hours and cost a fraction of a full replacement.
Roof Installation and Replacement in Maplewood, MN
When patching and repairs aren’t worth it anymore, we do full tear-offs and replacements. We strip the old shingles to the deck, check every board for rot and water damage, and install a complete new system — ice and water shield, synthetic underlayment, GAF or Owens Corning architectural shingles, and new flashing at every chimney, vent pipe, valley, and wall junction. Maplewood has a wide mix of housing — 1960s ramblers along Frost Avenue, 70s split-levels near Maple Hills Park, 80s two-stories off Century Avenue — and many of them are on their original roof or a second layer that’s past its lifespan. Most replacements take one to two days. We haul everything away and leave the property clean.
Roof Inspection in Maplewood, MN
We do free roof inspections for Maplewood homeowners — zero cost, zero obligation. We get on the roof, walk every inch, and check shingles, flashing, ridge cap, valleys, chimney area, pipe boots, and gutters. We take photos and walk you through everything we found. A lot of Maplewood homes — especially in the neighborhoods off White Bear Avenue, around Keller Lake, and along the 3M campus corridor — are sitting on 20-to-30-year-old roofs that look passable from the driveway but have real wear up close. One inspection now can save you thousands later.
Roof Damage Repair in Maplewood, MN
Branches snapping off the big oaks near Wakefield Park. Ice dams forming along the north-facing eaves on the ramblers off Stillwater Road. Raccoons chewing through rotted fascia on a house near Gladstone. Roof damage in Maplewood happens year-round and it always gets worse if you wait. We do emergency tarping to stop active leaks, then come back for the permanent repair once the weather or conditions allow. We document everything with photos for your insurance claim so you have a clean record from day one.
Gutter Installation & Repairs in Maplewood, MN
Maplewood’s mature tree canopy — especially in the older neighborhoods along White Bear Avenue, around Keller Lake, and south toward Battle Creek Regional Park — fills gutters fast every fall. Clogged gutters overflow, back up water under your shingles, and sag away from the fascia under the weight of wet leaves and ice. We install seamless aluminum gutters custom-cut at your house — no seams, no weak points. We also repair and reattach sagging sections, replace rotted fascia boards behind them, and install gutter guards for homeowners who want to stop the annual cleanout cycle.
Gutter Cleaning in Maplewood, MN
Between the oak-heavy neighborhoods off McKnight Road and the wooded lots backing up to Battle Creek, most Maplewood homes have gutters that are full by mid-October. Leaves, seed pods, and small branches pile up and create blockages that trap water. When November and December hit, that standing water freezes into ice dams that push up under your shingles and cause ceiling damage. We clean gutters completely, flush every downspout, and check for damage while we’re up there. Twice a year — late fall after leaf drop and early spring — keeps everything draining properly.

Common Roofing Problems in Maplewood, MN
Aging Roofs Across Maplewood's Post-War Neighborhoods
Maplewood grew in waves — the southern and central sections along White Bear Avenue and Frost Avenue filled in during the 1950s and 60s, the split-levels and colonials around Maple Hills Park and Hazelwood went up in the 70s, and the newer developments near the Gateway Trail came in the late 80s and 90s. That means a huge number of Maplewood roofs are either original or were last replaced 20-plus years ago. Asphalt shingles in Minnesota last 20 to 25 years under normal conditions, and many Maplewood homes are past that window. The signs aren’t always visible from the ground — curling edges, bare patches where granules have worn off, and soft spots in the decking only show up when someone walks the roof. A free inspection tells you exactly where your roof stands and how much life it has left.
Hail Damage Along the River Corridor
Maplewood is packed with ramblers and split-levels from the 1960s and 70s — home styles that are notorious for ice dam problems. The low-slope roof sections on ramblers don’t shed snow as quickly as steeper pitches, and split-levels have irregular attic spaces that make proper ventilation difficult. When heat leaks through the ceiling into the attic, it melts snow on the upper portion of the roof. That water runs down to the colder eaves and refreezes into a ridge of ice that traps water underneath your shingles. The trapped water causes ceiling stains, peeling paint, wood rot, and mold. We see the worst ice dam damage on the north-facing slopes of homes along Frost Avenue, Larpenteur, and the neighborhoods near Keller Lake where tree shade keeps roofs cold. The permanent fix is upgrading attic insulation and ventilation. If you’ve got an ice dam right now, we can safely remove it and repair the damage.
Ice Dams on Maplewood Ramblers and Split-Levels
Maplewood sits on the eastern edge of the Twin Cities metro, and storm systems that push through the region from the west often intensify as they cross the city. The east metro — Maplewood, Oakdale, Woodbury — frequently takes some of the hardest hail hits of the summer. A single storm can damage every roof on a street and most homeowners won’t know it until a leak develops months later. Hail damage shows up as circular bruises on shingles where granules have been knocked loose, dents in gutters and downspouts, and cracked flashing. The exposed shingle mat deteriorates under UV and moisture, and by winter you’ve got leaks where there were none before. After any hailstorm, call us for a free inspection while the damage is fresh and the insurance claim is straightforward.
Hail Damage on the East Metro Storm Track
Maplewood has some of the best tree cover in the east metro. The neighborhoods around Battle Creek Regional Park, Fish Creek Open Space, Wakefield Park, and along the Gateway Trail are full of mature oaks, maples, elms, and basswood. Those trees drop branches during storms, scrape shingles in the wind, and dump massive amounts of leaves into valleys and gutters every fall. Leaf buildup in roof valleys traps moisture against the shingles and accelerates rot. Overhanging branches that contact the roof surface wear down the granule coating over time. We recommend keeping branches trimmed at least six feet back from your roofline and cleaning gutters and valleys twice a year. If a branch has already come down on your roof, call us for a damage assessment — even if it looks minor from below, the impact zone often has cracked shingles and broken flashing underneath.
Tree Damage in Maplewood's Wooded Neighborhoods
A large percentage of Maplewood’s housing stock was built in the 1970s, before modern attic ventilation standards were established. Many of these homes have insufficient soffit intake vents, no ridge vent, and insulation that was blown in over the original soffit openings — blocking the very airflow the attic needs. The result is a trapped pocket of hot, humid air sitting against the underside of your roof decking year-round. In summer, it overheats your shingles from below and shortens their lifespan. In winter, it creates condensation and frost on the decking that drips down and causes staining and mold — and it’s the primary driver of ice dam formation. We check attic ventilation on every Maplewood inspection because it’s the root cause of more roofing problems than most homeowners realize, and fixing it solves multiple issues at once.

Every problem above gets worse and more expensive the longer you wait. We’ll get on your roof, show you exactly what’s going on, and give you a straight answer — no cost, no pressure.
Storm Damage & Insurance Claims in Maplewood
The east metro gets hammered every summer. Storms build to the west, gain energy crossing the Twin Cities, and often drop the heaviest hail right over Maplewood, Oakdale, and Woodbury before pushing into Wisconsin. One storm can damage hundreds of Maplewood roofs in a single evening, and most homeowners have no idea until months later when a stain shows up on the ceiling.
Here’s how we handle it. We come out the same day or next day. Free inspection. We walk every plane of the roof and check every square foot for dents, cracks, granule loss, lifted shingles, and damaged flashing.
Then we deal with your insurance company. We write up the complete scope of damage with full photo documentation, meet your adjuster on your roof, and walk them through every finding. We’ve done this hundreds of times across the east metro. We know what adjusters look for and what they try to minimize.
Most Maplewood homeowners we work with pay their deductible and that’s it. Insurance covers the rest.
- Same-day or next-day response after storms
- Full photo documentation of all damage
- We meet with your insurance adjuster on-site
- We handle the paperwork and follow-ups
- Most homeowners pay only their deductible
Maplewood Roofing Questions
How much does roof repair cost in Maplewood, MN?
Depends on the damage. A straightforward shingle patch or vent boot repair runs $200-$500. Larger repairs involving flashing, decking, or valley work can be $800-$2,500. Maplewood’s older homes sometimes need extra work if there are multiple shingle layers or original materials that have to come out. Storm damage repairs are usually covered by insurance. We always give free estimates so you know the exact cost upfront.
Does insurance cover hail damage to my Maplewood roof?
Most single-family homes in Maplewood get done in one to two days. Larger homes or homes with steep pitches, multiple dormers, or multi-layer tear-offs can take up to three days. We give you a timeline before we start and stick to it.
Does insurance cover hail damage to my Maplewood roof?
Usually yes. If the damage was caused by hail or wind, your homeowner’s insurance should cover repair or replacement minus your deductible. We handle the entire process — inspection, photo documentation, adjuster meetings, and follow-ups — so you don’t have to navigate it alone.
When should I replace my roof in Maplewood?
Most asphalt shingle roofs last 20 to 25 years in Minnesota. Maplewood has a lot of homes from the 1960s through 80s, and many are on their original or second roof that’s now past its expected lifespan. Watch for curling shingles, granule loss, dark streaks, granules piling up in your gutters, and any sagging. If your roof is over 20 years old, a free inspection gives you a clear answer on whether repair or replacement is the better investment.
