Where the buildings are

The Dickinson commercial footprint

Dickinson pairs southwest energy activity with ranching country and a university campus, so its roofs range from institutional low-slope to metal panel shops and outbuildings. It averages the least snow of the thirteen North Dakota markets we serve, but the county ground snow load in the state building code governs design regardless of what falls in an average winter.

Dickinson roofing facts

01How often does a Dickinson roof freeze and thaw in a year?
Roughly 90 times. Each cycle expands and contracts the membrane, seams, and flashings on a Dickinson, ND commercial roof, which is why monolithic systems outlast seamed ones here.
02What design wind speed applies to commercial roofs in Dickinson, ND?
ASCE 7 sets a basic wind speed and an Exposure Category rather than a "zone". Confirm both with the local building department before a system is specified.
03What is the average annual snowfall in Dickinson, ND?
About 21.9 inches a year (NOAA 1991-2020 normals). What matters on a flat roof is where that snow drifts and how it melts, not just the total.
04What is A-1 Roofing's response time in Dickinson, ND?
Our target is 24 business hours for a first response in Dickinson. Active leaks are prioritised ahead of scheduled assessments.
