Commercial Roofing in Staples, MN — From the Shop 10 Minutes Up the Road
Staples is our backyard. Our Minnesota shop is ten minutes up US-10 in Motley, which makes the ag buildings, rail-side warehouses, college facilities, and main-street businesses of Staples the closest commercial roofs we serve in the state.
When your roof needs eyes on it, we're not scheduling you three weeks out — we're driving over. Same-day looks at urgent leaks are normal here, because the drive is shorter than most contractors' lunch break.
We work on commercial and agricultural-commercial buildings only. No houses, no shingles, no residential sales pitch. Flat roofs, metal roofs, and coating systems on working buildings — that's the whole business.

Why a local shop actually matters for your roof
Having crews based 10 minutes away in Motley changes the service you get in three concrete ways:
Response time.
When a storm crosses Todd or Wadena County and your roof opens up, we're the first call that can actually show up the same day. Ten minutes is the whole trip.
We know these buildings.
Screw-down steel on machine sheds and co-op buildings, flat roofs on rail-side warehouses, the main-street storefronts and school buildings — these are the closest roofs we work on, and we drive past them every day.
You know where to find us. A warranty from a contractor two hours away is a piece of paper. A warranty from the shop ten minutes up the road is a knock on our door. We can't hide, and we've never needed to.
What we see on roofs around Staples
Rust rows on ag and shop buildings. Screw-down steel dominates around Staples, and freeze-thaw cycling backs the fasteners out a little more every winter. Caught early, it's a coating — not a tear-off.
Rail-side warehouse roofs that nobody's walked in years.
Big, flat, out of sight — the classic roof where the first inspection finds five years of problems.
Snow-load stress on wide-span buildings.
Older wide-span metal buildings around Staples were built for the snow loads of their era, not the wet, heavy dumps we get now. Seams and fastener rows show it first.
Seam and penetration leaks that show up in March.
Snow sits on a roof for four months, then melts through every weak seam at once. The leak you see in spring usually started in November.
Coatings past their recoat window.
A coating that should have been renewed at year 10 becomes a full restoration at year 15. The difference is real money.
