Our Roofing Services | Marathon, IA
We don't do a little of everything. We do roofing. That specialization is why we can offer manufacturer certifications and the best warranties available to Marathon homeowners.
Roof Replacement
Your roof replacement includes a full-system install: ice and water shield at eaves, valleys, and penetrations; synthetic underlayment across the entire deck; aluminum drip edge at rake and eave; starter strip with sealant; architectural shingles with 130+ mph wind rating; and continuous ridge vent for proper attic ventilation. We also install new pipe boots and vent flashing on every penetration.

Improper step flashing is the leading cause of roof leaks at wall-to-roof transitions. Step flashing needs to be woven between shingle courses with each piece extending 4" above the shingle exposure. We see Marathon homes where the last roofer used continuous L-flashing or just caulked the gap. That always fails. We tear it out and install proper step flashing with a kick-out diverter at the bottom per IRC R905.2.8.3.

We handle storm damage claims from start to finish: inspection, documentation, claim filing, adjuster meeting, supplement if needed, repair or replacement, and final inspection. Our supplement team has recovered thousands in additional coverage for Marathon homeowners that adjusters initially missed.

Building a custom home in Marathon? We work directly with you and your architect on material selection, color coordination, and budget planning. From designer shingles to standing seam metal, we install it all and back it with manufacturer plus workmanship warranties.

Metal roof repairs are usually sealant failures at transitions, loose panels from improper installation, or rust spots on older galvanized systems. Our Marathon crew repairs all metal types. Not every issue needs a full replacement. Sometimes a sealant touch-up or panel re-securing solves it.

PVC membrane for Marathon 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 Iowa. We still install BUR when the application calls for it.
Get a Free Quote →Commercial Roofing
Your commercial roof has HVAC units, exhaust fans, plumbing vents, and satellite dishes punching through it. Every penetration is a potential leak point. We install prefabricated curbs, custom-welded flashings, and pitch pans that handle foot traffic and thermal cycling without failing.
Get a Free Quote →Gutter Installation
Clogged gutters cause fascia rot, soffit damage, and foundation erosion from concentrated water runoff. That's not a marketing scare tactic. We see the damage on every other gutter replacement in Marathon. Properly sized gutters with adequate downspout capacity move water away from the house. We calculate capacity using rainfall intensity data for Marathon: roof area x pitch factor x rainfall rate in inches per hour. Standard 5" K-style handles 5,520 square feet of effective roof area.

Buying or selling a home in Marathon? A roof inspection from a licensed contractor beats whatever the home inspector saw from the driveway. We check every component, give you a remaining-life estimate, and flag anything the buyer or seller should know about.

Fallen tree damage requires immediate structural assessment before tarping. If a tree has displaced rafters, cracked a ridge beam, or pushed through ceiling joists, the structure is compromised. We assess from both exterior and attic, coordinate with structural engineers or framing contractors when needed, and tarp only areas that are structurally stable enough to support the tarp hardware. Insurance claims for tree strikes require separate line items for tree removal, structural repair, and roofing repair. We document each scope independently.
Get a Free Quote →Skylight Installation
Skylight installation includes cutting the roof opening, framing a curb with doubled 2x lumber, installing the unit with factory sealant, and weaving the step flashing into the surrounding shingle courses. Interior work includes drywall framing and trim. We handle the full job in Marathon. Outside and inside.
