Austin sits about 42 miles south of Rochester along I-90, anchored by Hormel Foods and home to roughly 26,000 people. The Cedar River runs right through the middle of town, and the same hailstorms and freeze-thaw cycles that pound Rochester hit Austin just as hard. Gray Duck Roofing crews head down Highway 63 for roofing work across Austin every week, from the older homes near Todd Park and East Side Lake to the newer builds south of I-90. Austin homeowners get the same same-day install, the same certified materials, and the same Minnesota expertise we bring to every job.
Mower County sees some of the harshest severe-weather patterns in southern Minnesota; hail in spring, straight-line winds in summer, heavy snow loads through winter. Gray Duck Roofing handles the full range of exterior work your Austin home needs.

"We just had our roof replaced by Gray Duck Roofing, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. I first met Ryan last year when we were just exploring options, and he stuck with us through a long decision-making process—never pushy, always professional, and incredibly patient. "
"Tremendous service and excellent communication. We’ve had plenty of work done on our house over the years and have never had a contractor be so on top of things. Timelines, budgets, team, quality materials. Can’t say enough good things about Ryan’s group. 10/10 recommend."
"Ryan and his crew did a great job on my new roof! Ryan explained everything, was helpful with picking out colors and was able to get me on the schedule quickly. The crew was friendly, did the job fast and did a nice job cleaning everything up, before leaving. Highly recommend!"
"Highly recommend Ryan and his crew! Great communication and very personable. Showed up on time and work completed very fast but thoroughly from inspection to completion. Couldn't have asked for a better experience for a very frustrating and stressful situation."

""Ryan and his crew were fantastic! If I could give them 10 stars, I would. They finished the job quickly and the cleanup was so thorough it was like they were never even here. Ryan worked with our busy schedules and helped us make all of our selections online, it was such convenient and easy process. We could not be happier with our new roof!
"Ryan and his crews did an amazing job with everything from handling the insurance right down to the final details. I would highly recommend them."
"Great communication, open to our thoughts and concerns. The house has a large roof as there is a 3 car attached garage. In one day they took off 2 layers, repaired a few bad areas and covered vents no longer used, and finished shingling."
"Very promp and timely service! Knowledgeable and courteous. Our problem was just a clogged gutter and Ryan took care of it quickly. Would definitely recommend Gray Duck Roofing."
