J. Robert Roofing is an award winning residential roofing company based in Eden Prairie, MN. The company's owner, Bob Seemann, has been in the industry since 1992. Throughout the years, Bob has done the actual hands-on work of tearing off and installing shingles, all while solving very complex water draining issues and troubleshooting hundreds of leaking roofs.
This hands-on experience has given him a wealth of knowledge, which he passionately shares with everyone in his organization. The fact is your roof is only as good as the person who installs it. We believe compensating more to attract and keep the best talent is one of the most important things we can do for our customers. Top-rated shingles are nothing unless they are installed correctly.
This is why we seek out that special talent. Invest in them with ongoing training to grow their roofing knowledge and performance. Most importantly, reward them so that talent is here to work on your roof. Judging by our reviews, the investment is paying off!

Services
Being born and raised on the farm, you could say I was molded for the physical demands of this business.
My roofing career began in 1992 after I fulfilled my service contract with the U.S. Navy.
I started as a laborer working with a small father-and-son roofing business.
For nine years I learned the trade under their guidance, working my way up to a skilled roofer.
In spring of 2000 I successfully launched my own roofing business.
With an eager drive and determination for success, my business has grown every year.

J. Robert Roofing was called out to provide repair estimate for wind damage to roof, but found the root of the problem was that the entire roof had over driven roofing nails.
Roof nails should installed flat, flushed and along the shingle nailing line.
Roof that is only 10 years old is starting to fall apart and will need to be replaced 15 years early because of bad craftsmanship.
This Timberline shingle shows the problem of stress cracking that can occur to a shingle that is not built thick enough to handle the thermal shocks of Minnesota climates.

According to industry statistics, the leading cause of wind damage to a roof is improper nailing of the shingles.
There are strict instructions on how shingles are to be nailed to the roof decking.
If the nailing is bad, the only way to repair this issue is to replace the bad sections, or sometimes the entire roof.
Also, this is an easy way for shingle manufacturers to void their warranty.
In the first photo, even Corning's SureNail technology can't prevent bad nailing, as these nails are overdriven far too deep into the shingle, making it very easy for wind storms to rip open the roof.
