About Us

We’re a local Veteran Owned Family Operated Roofing Company based and built right here in St. Cloud Minnesota, helping homeowners make the best educated and confident decisions for their homes with honest guidance, clear communication and no pressure.

Local Exterior Services for Central Minnesota homes and businesses

Honest Inspections, Real Guidance, Reliable Solutions

When your roof takes storm damage, starts showing its age, or suddenly begins leaking, you need someone who shows up quickly and can clearly explain what’s going on, walk you through your options, and help you make the right decision for your home.

Our team handles everything from storm damage inspections, wind, hail, and fallen trees, with detailed documentation for insurance support, to full roof replacements and exterior upgrades. Every project is built around Minnesota weather, your timeline, and long-term protection, backed by a lifetime workmanship warranty.

We’ve worked with homeowners and businesses across St. Cloud and the surrounding areas who felt overwhelmed, didn’t know where to start, or were tired of getting the runaround. Our job is to simplify the process, communicate clearly, and deliver work that holds up.
Whether it’s a small repair or a full replacement, the goal stays the same, do it right, and make sure you’re taken care of from start to finish.

Martin was great. First time service replacing an exhaust roof vent for my parents. Very nice courteous caring. He provides the kind of service you wish you had with every kind of service or business. He even asked if he could survey inspect the roof for anything else while he was up there. And showed us pictures of the overview of the new work and what he did. Thanks

Higher Dimensions Roofing exceeded our expectations from start to finish. Ethan did an incredible job walking us through the process, making sure we understood every step and felt confident in the decisions we were making. What really stood out was how they went to bat for us with the insurance company, they advocated hard and ultimately helped us secure more coverage than we thought initially.

A special shoutout to Ethan, who was fantastic to work with. He was honest, responsive, and put in the effort to make sure we were taken care of. You can tell he genuinely cares about doing right by his clients.

If there was any downside, it would be some communication hiccups around scheduling and knowing exactly when the project would begin. That said, once the work started, everything moved quickly and the quality was excellent, so the scheduling issues ended up being a minor inconvenience in the grand scheme.

Overall, we are really happy with the results and would absolutely recommend Higher Dimensions Roofing to anyone looking for a company that delivers quality work and stands up for their customers.

Martin did an excellent job for us. He repaired part of our roof about a month ago, and everything held up great. When we noticed a leak yesterday in a completely different area (not related to the original repair), we gave him a call and he showed up within 24 hours and fixed it. That level of customer service is rare.

His response time was incredibly fast, his work is high quality, and he clearly cares for his customers. Overall, amazing service and great value. I would absolutely recommend Martin to anyone needing roofing work.

I first heard of Higher Dimensions Roofing from my my mom submitting my house for the free roof for a veteran. I met with Kelly late of last year for the inspection and quote. They day came for the new roof to be installed. I was told it would take two days. It was done in a half of a day! The service was phenomenal and overall keeping it stress free experience.

Everything was such a great experience. Quality of work and professionalism for the whole team was unlike anything I've seen or witnessed. But the strongest point was there dedication to makeing sure everything was right for the job completion, to the issues I needed addressed as a customer. I could not have asked for a better company to trust and work with. 10 out of 10 I'd recommend Higher Dimensions.

Scott from Higher Dimensions Roofing was able to explain all of my questions and they were able to get my roof scheduled in a timely manner so that it would be done before it got too cold. They got my house and garage done in one day. I was out of town when they did my roof and they were very professional and did a very good cleanup. They were able to send me pictures after they started so I had an idea of what the roof looked like underneath the old shingles prior to the new shingles being placed.

Very good experience working with Higher Dimensions Roofing. They always answered questions and returned texts and phone calls quickly. Unlike another big named company in the area, higher dimensions, took the time to work with my insurance company so they actually raised the amount put towards my new roof. I really appreciate their willingness to check all options and do the extra work. The other company wouldn’t even work with my insurance company and only offered to replace my roof for retail. As a veteran, I like that their company supports Veterans and has Veterans on their staff. The crew that was here was hard-working, stayed late and picked up my yard so there was no mess left behind. My neighbor highly recommended them and now I am doing the same, very good company to work with. Scott Ley was my contact person through the whole process, he is courteous and respectful, and I appreciate working with businesses who care about their customers. I was impressed at how knowledgeable they were when they were discussing all of the things that needed to be done to my roof. They even identified several things that my insurance company missed.

Just had my first roof replacement this summer and could not be more pleased with HDR.
Pat and his crew made the entire process from start to finish as smooth as possible.
They took the time to clearly explain the scope of work and made sure there were no surprises.
Their crew did an exceptional job protecting our gardens around the house during the replacement and Steven swept the yard with magnets to ensure nothing was left behind.
10/10 would recommend.

Our Story

Patrick Ruegemer, founder of Higher Dimensions Roofing, started as a roofer straight out of high school, learning the trade from the ground up across Minnesota.

Not long after, he served in Afghanistan in 2013 as a combat engineer while pursuing his bachelor’s degree.

After returning home, ongoing back issues shifted his path off the roof and into Sales and the business side of the industry. Working alongside his brother Ethan, Chad Doyle and Mike Frauly at a larger Twin Cities company, he saw where homeowners were often left dealing with confusion, pressure, and work that didn’t hold up.

That’s what led to the 4 of them founding and starting Higher Dimensions Roofing. Built in Central Minnesota, the company was created to offer something different, clear communication, honest guidance, and roofing work designed to last in Minnesota conditions. Today, the team includes 4 of Pat’s brothers, several cousins, and a Uncle, creating a Family Operated, hands-on company that takes pride in doing the job right.

Giving back is part of that mission. From offering a 10% discount to veterans, to partnering each year to provide a free roof for a Veteran in Need, that commitment has been there from the start.

Because at the end of the day, this isn’t just about roofs, it’s about taking care of people, their homes, and the communities we’re part of.
