Two Harbors sits directly on Lake Superior’s shoreline, and unlike inland cities, homes here face open water wind with nothing standing in the way. The stretch along Agate Bay and Burlington Bay, near the historic lighthouse and the iron ore docks, absorbs the full force of what locals call the gales of November, and that exposure continues in different forms through every month of winter. Many homes in Two Harbors are older lakeside cottages and cabins built decades before anyone anticipated the wind loads a direct lakefront position produces, and their roofs often show it. Perrault Roofers installs metal roofing systems built specifically for direct shoreline exposure. Standing seam panels resist the sustained wind uplift that comes straight off open water, and every installation accounts for the ice buildup that forms along Two Harbors rooflines each winter as lake spray and freezing temperatures meet.
Metal roofing is a durable, long life roofing system that resists wind, ice, and moisture far better than standard asphalt shingles. In Two Harbors, direct lakefront exposure means roofs take wind and freezing spray with no buffer, making a wind rated metal system essential for any home along Agate Bay or Burlington Bay.
We install metal roofing to full manufacturer specification, with reinforced fastening and flashing designed for the sustained wind loads that direct Lake Superior shoreline properties experience throughout the year.
For Two Harbors homes and cabins with aging roofs, we handle complete tear off and replacement with metal systems engineered to withstand the gales of November and every winter storm that follows.
