We started Prominent because we believed homeowners deserved a roofer who'd tell them the truth — even when the truth is "you don't need a new roof."
Our Story
Justin Krein and Chad Ormberg launched Prominent Roofing in 2016 out of their own pockets — no investors, no shortcuts. Chad handled the marketing, Justin ran production, and together they built something the Twin Cities hadn't seen before: a roofing company you could actually trust.
“Within a few years, we outgrew our first office. Within a few more, we had a full crew — several of whom are still with Prominent today. We’re based in Minnetonka and we’re not going anywhere.”
The company's the same. The approach hasn't changed: be honest, do the work right, and tell people the truth even when it's not what they expected to hear.
The Founders
Two guys who started with nothing but drive — and built one of the most trusted roofing companies in the Twin Cities.
President
Justin is Prominent's man on the ground — overseeing the install side, vetting crews, and making sure every project is built to the standard he set when the company started. If your roof is on a Minnetonka home, odds are Justin's been on it.
Vice President
Chad is the reason you've heard of Prominent — and the reason it keeps growing. He runs the marketing, the brand, and the customer relationships that have made Prominent what it is today: a company started because homeowners deserve the truth.
Communication
Roofing contractors are notorious for going radio silent once the contract is signed. At Prominent Roofing, we believe in proactive communication — no contractor chaos, no chasing, just a process that works the way it should.
After the inspection is completed and the contract is signed, we'll give you a clear timeline for your project so you always know what's happening next.
We'll tell you what days and times you can expect our crews to arrive and what they will be working on while they are there.
We reach out to provide regular updates on your project before you have to ask. You're never left wondering where things stand with your home.
We complete a full walk-through and stay available to make sure everything is exactly how it should be — long after the job is done.
Why Prominent
Four commitments that shape every project we take on.
Most roofers push replacement, even when it's not necessary. We push the right decision for what your roof actually needs.
We know how stressful storm damage claims are for homeowners, and we make sure you get what you're actually entitled to.
We transparently and proactively communicate every step of the way, so you'll always know where things stand.
You should never have to worry about the work being done on your home, so we treat every project with the same care we'd give our own property.
Our Process
Most roofing companies default to a full roof replacement, even when it's not in the best interest of the homeowner. Prominent Roofing starts with a thorough, 3-step evaluation to give you accurate information and recommend exactly what your roof needs — nothing more.
We thoroughly inspect your entire roof and the areas surrounding your home for signs of damage.
Repair, replace, or insurance claim — we'll tell you which one actually makes sense based on our findings.
We'll give you our honest recommendation — the same choice we'd make if it were our own house.
Call once. We'll assess your roof, handle your claim, or get you scheduled — no runaround, no pressure.
