Roofing Services in Upham, ND
From quick fixes to major projects, Upham Roofing & Maintenance has been the roofing contractor Upham homeowners call for 22 years. Here's a rundown of what we offer.
Roof Replacement
Full roof replacement starts with a complete tear-off down to the deck. We inspect every board for rot or soft spots. In Upham, we find decking damage on about 30% of tear-offs. Damaged sections get replaced with CDX plywood before anything else goes on. Then we build up: ice and water shield in valleys and at eaves, synthetic underlayment across the full deck, new drip edge on every edge, starter strip, field shingles, hip and ridge caps, and ridge vent. Dumpster, permits, and cleanup included.

Roof Repair
Our roof repair process: inspect the issue, identify the root cause, quote the fix, do the work, warranty the repair. Simple. If the root cause is widespread (poor ventilation causes ice dams, for example), we'll recommend addressing that too. But the choice is always yours.

Storm Damage Repair
Not all storm damage qualifies for a full replacement. Hail might only damage one slope. Wind might only lift shingles on the windward side. We document exactly what's damaged and let the insurance company make the call. Honest documentation gets claims approved. Inflated claims get denied.

New Roof Installation
New construction underlayment per IRC R905 and ASTM D226 (felt) or ASTM D6757 (synthetic). Ice barrier per ASTM D1970 required at eaves in climate zones with average January temperature below 25°F. We install ice and water shield regardless. It's cheap insurance against ice dams and wind-driven rain. Drip edge per IRC R905.2.8.5 on eave and rake edges. Proper starter strip with factory sealant for wind resistance from day one.

Metal Roofing
Standing seam metal with Kynar 500 PVDF fluoropolymer finish. The gold standard for color retention and chalk resistance. We install Sheffield Metals and McElroy Metal panels in 24-gauge Galvalume steel. UL 2218 Class 4 impact resistance (qualifies for insurance discounts in most North Dakota markets). UL 790 Class A fire rating. Wind uplift rated to 140+ mph per ASTM E1592 testing. Concealed Z-clips allow thermal expansion without stress on fasteners. That's what makes standing seam leak-proof.

Shingle Roofing
GAF Timberline HDZ. The best-selling shingle in North America. With StrikeZone nailing area for consistent fastener placement. Class A fire rating per UL 790, Class 4 impact resistance per UL 2218 (when installed in the GAF Roof System), and Class H wind rating per ASTM D7158 (130 mph). We install Timberline in the full GAF system to qualify for Golden Pledge warranty: 25-year non-prorated workmanship plus 50-year materials with WindProven limited wind warranty (no max speed). That warranty is why we recommend GAF for most Upham homes.

Flat Roofing
PVC membrane for Upham restaurants, commercial kitchens, and facilities with rooftop grease exhaust or chemical exposure. PVC resists oils and animal fats that destroy TPO and EPDM membranes. We install IB Roof Systems and Duro-Last PVC with factory-fabricated accessories for watertight penetration details. Built-up roofing (BUR) uses 3 or 4 plies of fiberglass felt in hot asphalt with a gravel or cap sheet surface. Oldest proven flat roof system, with 30+ year service life in North Dakota. We still install BUR when the application calls for it.

Gutter Installation
Gutter sizing matters more than most homeowners realize. We calculate the effective roof area, local rainfall intensity, and the number of downspout outlets needed to handle peak flow. Undersized gutters overflow. Undersized downspouts back up. We size everything to handle Upham's worst rain.

Skylight Installation
Skylights done right bring natural light into spaces that need it most. Bathrooms, hallways, closets, kitchens with limited windows. We install VELUX and Fakro units with manufacturer flashing kits that integrate with your existing shingle field. Proper flashing is everything. Bad skylight installs are a leading cause of roof leaks.
