IKO Dynasty Roofinf Repalcement in Moorhead, MN | Asphalt Shingles

When Alyssa called Vita Roofing, she explained that her old asphalt shingle roof had become an eyesore. Years of exposure to wind, rain, snow, and sun had left the shingles cracked, faded, and loose. She wanted a roof replacement that would not only improve curb appeal, but also provide better performance and peace of mind. Vita Roofing recommended a complete start-to-finish roof replacement using Class 3 Impact Rated IKO Dynasty shingles.

The project began with the crew protecting the property. Tarps were placed around the home to shield landscaping, outdoor items, and ground structures from falling debris. The old roofing system was then removed down to the decking. With the roof stripped clean, Vita Roofing inspected every section of the decking and replaced any boards that were soft or deteriorated. Taking the time to repair the decking ensured that Alyssa’s new roof would last for years without hidden issues underneath.

Once the deck was ready, the team installed the moisture barriers that are so important in Minnesota’s climate. Two rows of Ice and Water barrier were installed at every eave, and one row was installed through all roof valleys. Synthetic underlayment was then applied across the rest of the roof for an added layer of defense against wind-driven rain and moisture. The roof perimeter was finished with new aluminum drip edge, and starter shingles were installed along the rakes and eaves to provide a stronger seal.

Finally, the crew installed the new IKO Dynasty shingles using a 10-inch offset pattern for a clean, dimensional appearance. These shingles were a perfect fit for Alyssa’s home because they are Class 3 impact-rated and designed with built-in algae resistance to help prevent black streaking. They also feature an upgraded tar strip and upgraded nailing strip that help keep the shingles secure during severe weather. To complete the project, Vita Roofing repaired the chimney flashing, giving Alyssa a roof system that was attractive, durable, and fully protected from top to bottom.
