Dante Roofing Contractor | 20+ Years

Replacing your roof isn't just about shingles. We install ice and water shield in the valleys and along eaves, synthetic underlayment across the whole deck, new drip edge on rake and eave, starter strip, and ridge vent. That's how a roof lasts 30 years in South Dakota.

Missing shingles, cracked flashing, a leak over the kitchen. Whatever it is, we fix it. Our Dante repair crew runs 6 days a week. Most repairs take half a day.

We work with every major insurance carrier. State Farm, Allstate, USAA, Liberty Mutual, Farmers, Nationwide. Our supplement team knows Xactimate line items and fights for full replacement when your roof qualifies.

Atlas Pinnacle Pristine shingles with Scotchgard algae protection. Ideal for South Dakota humidity. We also install Tamko Heritage laminated shingles for budget-conscious builds and Malarkey Vista AR with Flexor SBS polymer-modified asphalt for high-wind zones. Your installer should match your material choice to your climate, not just your budget.

Corrugated metal and R-panel are cost-effective options for barns, detached shops, and covered patios in Dante. We install 29-gauge and 26-gauge corrugated with exposed fasteners using neoprene washer screws. For homes, we recommend 24-gauge standing seam with concealed fasteners. Cleaner look, no exposed fastener maintenance. DaVinci composite shake and slate profiles give you the metal longevity with a traditional South Dakota aesthetic.

Designer shingles like GAF Camelot and Owens Corning Berkshire mimic slate and cedar shake. Higher cost than standard architectural, but the look is incredible. We install all designer profiles in Dante.

Flat roof leaks usually happen at penetrations, seams, or flashing details. We locate the source, repair it properly, and coat the surrounding area. If the membrane is shot, we'll recommend replacement. Not a band-aid.

Your commercial roof is protecting your inventory, your equipment, and your employees. We do annual inspections for Dante business owners. Catch small problems before they become $50,000 problems.

Improperly sized gutters cause fascia board rot and foundation erosion. We calculate gutter capacity using the rainfall intensity formula: roof square footage x pitch factor x rainfall rate (inches/hr for Dante). Standard 5" K-style handles 5,520 sq ft of effective roof area. Bigger roofs or steeper pitches need 6" gutters with 3x4" downspouts. We hang with hidden hangers screwed into rafter tails every 24".

Annual roof inspections catch small problems before they become expensive ones. A cracked pipe boot is a $150 fix. Ignoring it means $3,000 in ceiling and wall water damage. We recommend an inspection every 2-3 years for roofs under 10 years old, and annually after that.

Emergency tarping is the first priority. We cover the exposed area to stop water entry, then schedule the permanent repair once conditions allow. We don't charge extra for emergency tarp jobs. It's part of the repair cost.

A skylight installed wrong will leak. The flashing has to integrate with the shingle courses. Step flashing on the sides, headwall flashing on top, and a sill pan underneath. We use manufacturer flashing kits because they're engineered to work with the skylight frame.
