A & A Roofing Co

A and A Roofing Co has worked in the Fairbanks area long enough to understand what Interior Alaska winters do to roof systems. When ambient temperatures stay below zero for weeks and occasionally plunge past 40 below, roofing materials behave differently than anywhere else in the country. Shingles become brittle. Metal contracts. Sealants that work fine in temperate climates crack and fail. The company handles residential roofing across Fairbanks North Star Borough: complete replacements, repairs, and the maintenance work that helps roofs survive another Interior winter. Material recommendations reflect actual cold-weather performance rather than warranty fine print that excludes extreme conditions. Snow load management drives many roofing decisions in this region. A roof system needs to either shed snow effectively or handle the weight of accumulation that can reach several feet. Structural considerations, pitch selection, and material choices all connect to this fundamental challenge. Ice dams form when heat escapes through poorly insulated roof assemblies, melting snow that refreezes at the eaves. Preventing this requires attention to both the roof surface and the ventilation system beneath it. The construction season in Fairbanks runs roughly May through September, with shoulder months depending on weather. This compressed timeline means summer schedules fill quickly. Property owners planning roof work benefit from booking early rather than waiting for leaks to force emergency decisions. Years of Fairbanks experience mean the A and A crew knows local conditions, local building patterns, and the specific challenges that Interior Alaska throws at every roof.
