The main preparation steps are moving vehicles away from the driveway and garage, covering or removing sensitive items in the attic and garage from falling debris and vibration, protecting outdoor furniture and grills near the house, and letting pets and household members know the day will be loud starting early in the morning.
Architectural Asphalt Shingles: The standard for most Otsego homes, offering strong wind resistance and a range of cold weather rated product lines built for Minnesota winters.
Standing Seam & Exposed Fastener Metal Roofing: Sheds snow efficiently and resists hail better than asphalt, with a lifespan that can run 40 to 70 years under proper installation.
TPO & EPDM Commercial Flat Roofing: TPO's heat-welded seams and reflective white surface perform well in summer heat loads. EPDM's proven flexibility handles the freeze-thaw stress that the Twin Cities sees 40 to 60 times per year.
Composite Shingle & Cedar Shake: For that classic, timeless feel, we offer both synthetic and natural shake shingles.

Vehicles should be moved out of the driveway and away from the sides of the house where materials will be staged and debris will fall. Outdoor furniture, grills, planters, and decorations near the perimeter of the house should be moved further out or covered.
The vibration from tear off and nailing can dislodge items stored in the attic, including insulation dust settling onto stored boxes. Covering stored items with a tarp or moving anything fragile down a level protects them from dust and vibration.
Keeping the driveway and a clear path around the house available for the dumpster or trailer and material staging helps the day move efficiently, and having a point of contact reachable by phone means any decking surprises can be resolved quickly instead of causing delays.
None of this preparation is complicated, but skipping it can mean a scratched vehicle, a dusty attic, or a stressed pet on an otherwise smooth replacement day. A few minutes the evening before saves a headache the day of.
KraftMasters Restoration sends a simple prep checklist ahead of every scheduled replacement, so nothing is a surprise on the morning the crew arrives.
We start with a thorough roof inspection that goes beyond the shingles. Hail damage shows up in the granule loss pattern, at the flashing points, along the soft metals like gutters and downspouts, and sometimes in the decking underneath. We photograph every area of damage and produce documentation specific enough to support a full insurance claim.
Once damage is confirmed, we help you file the claim and coordinate directly with your adjuster. Insurance adjusters frequently underestimate granule loss, overlook collateral damage, or write a scope that does not include everything covered by your policy. We review the initial scope of loss and submit supplemental documentation when items have been missed. We do not consider this done until the approved scope reflects the actual damage.
Kraft Masters is a certified installer for the top-of-the-line materials to put on your home. From GAF Timberline HDz shingles to secure your roof to LP SmartSide siding to enhance your curb appeal. We will walk you through the best options that fit your home, and your scope of damage.
Once materials are approved and scheduled, our crew arrives with everything needed to complete the job in a single day. We inspect the decking before new material goes down, photograph each stage, and handle magnetic nail collection across the full property. No overnight weather exposure. No half-finished work waiting on a callback.
We walk the completed job with you before we leave. If depreciation has been withheld pending completion, we provide the documentation needed to release it. The job is finished when you have your roof and your full claim settlement, not just one of the two.
You deserve a contractor who's willing to go the distance. The insurance claims process is a marathon, not a sprint. Call KraftMasters today to schedule your free inspection, or click below to get get started instantly!
