Asphalt shingles are the most popular roofing choice in Minnesota for good reason. They offer an excellent combination of durability, affordability, and curb appeal that works well for nearly any home style. As a trusted roofing company in White Bear Lake, MN, Avalanche Home Services installs a full range of asphalt shingle options, from classic 3-tab shingles to high-performance impact-resistant products built to handle Minnesota’s harshest weather.
With over 35 years of trade expertise, our licensed and insured team ensures every installation is completed to the highest standard, backed by a lifetime workmanship warranty and free estimates on every project.
Choosing the right type of asphalt shingle roofing for your home goes beyond picking a color. Each shingle type offers different levels of protection, longevity, and aesthetic appeal, and the right choice depends on your budget, your home’s architecture, and the weather conditions your roof faces.
Avalanche Home Services helps homeowners navigate these options with honest, no-pressure guidance during every free estimate. We install all major asphalt shingle types and help you select the product that delivers the best long-term value for your specific situation. Financing starts as low as $249 a month with no money down, and we offer $500 off qualifying roof replacements.
From budget-friendly 3-tab shingles to premium luxury and impact-resistant options, the shingle you choose affects your roof’s performance for decades. We help you weigh cost, durability, warranty coverage, and aesthetic appeal so you can make a confident, informed decision. Every shingle we install is backed by our lifetime workmanship warranty and manufacturer coverage.
Asphalt shingle roofing is durable, but Minnesota’s climate puts shingles through a great deal of stress year after year – ice dams, freeze-thaw cycles, heavy snowfall, and summer hailstorms can all shorten the lifespan of your shingles if issues are not addressed promptly, which is why understanding what a full roof replacement involves helps homeowners make informed decisions. Our team provides free inspections within 24 hours so you get a fast, accurate picture of your roof’s condition. If you notice any of the following, it is time to schedule an inspection:

The four main types are 3-tab, architectural, luxury, and impact-resistant shingles. Three-tab shingles are the most affordable option, while architectural shingles offer enhanced durability and a dimensional appearance. Luxury shingles mimic the look of premium materials like slate or wood shake, and impact-resistant shingles are engineered specifically to withstand hail and severe weather conditions common in Minnesota.
With quality installation and proper maintenance, asphalt shingles typically last between 20 and 30 years. Architectural and impact-resistant shingles often carry longer manufacturer warranties and can outperform basic 3-tab products in harsh climates. Minnesota’s freeze-thaw cycles and storm seasons can affect longevity, which is why proper installation and routine inspections are essential to maximizing the life of your roof.
For many Minnesota homeowners, yes. Impact-resistant shingles are designed to withstand hail, high winds, and severe weather, which are common throughout the Twin Cities area. They often qualify for homeowner’s insurance discounts and can extend the lifespan of your roof compared to standard shingles. During your free estimate, we can help you determine whether the upgrade makes financial sense for your specific situation.
Storm damage to asphalt shingles caused by hail, wind, or severe weather events is typically covered by homeowner’s insurance. We are experienced storm damage restoration specialists and will help you document the damage thoroughly and work directly with your insurance adjuster throughout the claims process to help ensure you receive the coverage you are entitled to.
Asphalt shingles are relatively low maintenance compared to other roofing materials. Routine inspections once or twice a year, keeping gutters clear, and addressing minor issues promptly are the most important steps homeowners can take. Catching small problems early, such as a few cracked or missing shingles, prevents them from developing into larger and more costly repairs down the road.

Mike and his team were great to work with. Mike communicated with us through out the entire process and didn’t turn away a single question. We noticed a portion of our sliding glass door didn’t get caulked and the team was out here in a matter of hours to get it fixed- GREAT customer service. We couldn’t be happier with our new siding, and have gotten tons of compliments from neighbors. If you’re looking for an honest, hard working team to update your home exterior, go with Avalanche- you won’t regret it.

I have worked with the Avalanche team as a service provider on several projects, they have been very easy to communicate with, payment has always been on time and painless. I’ve seen the homes they’ve transformed, before and after and will not hesitate to have them work on my personal home when the need arises.

I Just wanted to stop by and give you my review of this company! This is by far the best contractor I have ever encountered, the owner took his time to learn about my project and delivered what he guaranteed. They communicated at every step and if something came up, he would be the first to contact you and keep you in the loop. This company is one of the only ones I have ever seen that helps the community as they do and stands behind all they do. They are priced fairly and help no matter how small or large the job is. I stand behind this company % and you should to. Marissa
