What We Do | Bernard Roofing & Maintenance Roofing Services
Everything we do is roofing. That focus means our Bernard crews install more roofs per year than companies that try to do siding, windows, and remodeling on the side.
Roof Replacement
Replacement cost depends on your roof size, pitch, and material choice. We quote by the square (100 sq ft) and itemize everything so you can compare apples to apples. In Bernard, most residential replacements fall between $8,500 and $24,000. We offer financing if that helps.

Missing shingles from wind damage expose the underlayment to UV degradation. If the underlayment is compromised, water intrusion follows the next rain. We don't just replace the missing shingle. We pull back surrounding courses, inspect the underlayment for UV damage and nail holes, replace compromised sections, and weave new CertainTeed Landmark or IKO Cambridge shingles into the existing field. Proper repair, not a patch.

Storm damage is time-sensitive. Most insurance policies in Iowa require claims within 12 months. We do a free inspection, document every damaged area with photos and measurements, and help you file the claim. If the adjuster approves it, we handle the repairs at the insurance-approved price.

We install new roofs on new homes, additions, detached garages, carports, and covered patios. Material options include asphalt architectural shingles, metal standing seam, metal corrugated, and flat membrane systems. We help you choose based on your budget, aesthetic preference, and the specific demands of your Bernard climate.

Metal roofing reflects solar heat instead of absorbing it. In Iowa, that means 15-25% lower cooling costs compared to dark asphalt shingles. The higher upfront cost pays for itself over the life of the roof. And the life of a metal roof is twice or three times longer than shingles.

We install every major shingle brand: GAF Timberline HDZ, Owens Corning Duration, CertainTeed Landmark, Atlas Pinnacle, Tamko Heritage, Malarkey Vista, and IKO Cambridge. Each brand has different warranty tiers, wind ratings, and price points. We help you compare without pushing one brand over another.

The number one cause of flat roof failure is ponding water. Standing water that doesn't drain within 48 hours after rain. We solve ponding by installing tapered insulation systems that create positive slope to drains, scuppers, or roof edges. Minimum 1/4" per foot of slope eliminates standing water.

We install Carlisle SynTec and Firestone TPO membrane systems in 60-mil and 80-mil thickness over minimum R-25 polyiso insulation (more in climate zones requiring it). Seams hot-air welded at 900°F+ and tested with a seam probe. Fully adhered systems for wind uplift zones per FM I-90 or I-120. Mechanically attached for re-roofs over existing insulation. NRCA member, trained per manufacturer specifications.

Gutter replacement in Bernard costs $8-$15 per linear foot installed. That includes hangers, end caps, outlet drops, miters, and at least two downspout runs. Copper is $25-$40 per foot. We give exact pricing in the estimate. No ranges.

Roof inspections are free for Bernard homeowners. No strings, no obligation to hire us for repairs. If your roof is fine, we say so. If it needs attention, you get an honest assessment of what's going on and what it'll cost to fix.
Get a Free Quote →Emergency Roof Repair
Emergency protocol for active water intrusion: (1) interior containment. Buckets, plastic sheeting, water extraction if accessible, (2) exterior tarping with 20x30 heavy-duty poly sheeting over damaged area extending minimum 4 feet past damage on all sides, (3) secure with 2x4 nailer boards lag-screwed to the roof deck (not through shingles), (4) secondary tarp overlap for multi-section damage, (5) document with timestamped photos for insurance. Permanent repair scheduled within 48-72 hours once materials are sourced.
Get a Free Quote →Skylight Installation
VELUX FS (fixed) and VS (vented) skylights installed with EDL flashing kits for shingle roofs. The multi-step flashing integrates with the surrounding shingle courses per IRC R903.2. We frame the curb with doubled 2x8 or 2x10 lumber (depending on rafter depth), install ice and water shield membrane around the entire curb perimeter, then set the skylight with factory sealant before weaving step flashing into the field. Top headwall flashing tucks under the upslope shingle course. Bottom sill pan diverts water onto the downslope shingles. Zero exposed sealant joints. Mechanical flashing only.
