Bakeris Roofing has been driving to Ames for roof work since 1990. We repair in every Ames neighborhood. The older homes and rentals near Iowa State University and Jack Trice Stadium, the mid-century houses off Lincoln Way, and the newer developments north of 13th Street and out toward Reiman Gardens. Because we've worked on so many Ames housing generations, we can pre-diagnose common failure points before we're even on the roof.

The August 2020 derecho hit Ames with 110+ mph sustained winds. Among the highest anywhere in Iowa that day, and we're still finding derecho damage on Ames roofs years later. A common call we get is "my Ames roof is leaking and I've no idea why." Often the answer is a ridge cap wind-lifted during the derecho that slowly failed over the following years. We trace these sources with chalk-and-photo inspection.
