This Clearwater, Minnesota project came to us through a referral — which is always a good sign going in. The homeowner was looking for a long-term upgrade, not just a quick fix, and wanted a full exterior overhaul that would improve both durability and curb appeal. From roofing to siding and everything in between, this was a complete transformation.
We installed a brand-new standing seam metal roof on the main home, giving it one of the most durable and weather-resistant roofing systems available. Built to handle Minnesota’s extreme conditions, this system provides long-term performance with minimal maintenance. We also installed proper ice and water barriers and drip edge to protect against ice dams and water intrusion — critical details in this climate.
Beyond the roof, we replaced all gutters and downspouts to ensure proper drainage and prevent water-related issues around the foundation. The home also received all-new siding, completely updating the exterior appearance while adding another layer of protection against the elements. New roof vents were installed to improve airflow and ventilation, helping extend the life of the roofing system.
In addition to the main house, we installed new shingles on the detached boathouse, tying the entire property together with a clean, cohesive look. Every component of this project was done with intention — not just to make it look good, but to make sure everything works together as a complete system.
This wasn’t just a roofing job — it was a full exterior upgrade built to last. For homeowners in Clearwater and surrounding areas looking for a long-term solution, Northern Lights Roofs delivers projects that are done right the first time, with no shortcuts.
