Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a roof installation take in Minneapolis?
Most Minneapolis roof installations are completed within 1–2 days, depending on home size, roof complexity, and weather conditions. Larger or specialty-material roofs may take longer. NMC Exteriors prepares all materials and permits ahead of time to minimize disruption.
What roofing materials are best for homes in Minneapolis?
Because our area deals with hail, snow loads, and freeze–thaw cycles, Minneapolis homeowners often choose:
- Architectural asphalt shingles for affordability + durability
- Metal roofing for longevity and winter performance
- Impact-resistant shingles for hail-prone neighborhoods
NMC Exteriors installs roofing materials engineered specifically for Minnesota weather.
Can roof installation be done during a Minnesota winter?
Yes, roof installation is possible through much of the winter. NMC Exteriors uses cold-weather installation techniques, temperature-safe adhesives, and material handling methods to ensure shingles seal properly. Severe cold snaps or heavy snow may delay work for safety.
Do I need a permit for roof installation in Minneapolis?
Yes. Most cities in the Twin Cities metro, including Minneapolis, Plymouth, and Maple Grove, require a roofing permit for replacement or installation. NMC Exteriors will guide you through the entire permitting process, including inspections and code compliance.
How do I know if I need a full roof installation instead of repairs?
You may need a full installation if you notice:
- Widespread shingle deterioration

Will my homeowner’s insurance cover a roof installation?
Insurance typically covers installations only when caused by storm, hail, or wind damage. If your roof needs replacing due to age or general wear, it’s usually not covered. NMC Exteriors will help you determine whether your situation qualifies and can assist with the entire claims process.
How long should a newly installed roof last in Minneapolis?
A professionally installed Minneapolis roof typically lasts:
- 20–30 years for architectural asphalt

The lifespan depends on material, ventilation, and exposure to hail or winter conditions. Regular inspections from NMC Exteriors can help extend your roof’s life.
